Worn slap out...

Ok... Considering how long my posts usually are... Consider this your break. I had a fantastic weekend with my three guys. I'm going to let pictures show how outstanding our weekend was... however, I started out today tired. And the backyard has not been cut in a couple of weeks. The kids started school, I started school and I've been trying to get myself back together.

After about 2.5 hours in the back yard, 8 lawn bags full of grass (because bagging is easier than raking), and one trip to get MORE gas for the lawn mower, I'm pretty much one very tired and very pissed off b!tch. Rain is out playing "get the dove field ready" at his buddy's farm today. Yea for you... Cause, yeah, come on, we gotta shoot them there birds outta the sky next Monday. Whatever. Enough ranting... It's probably the birth control pills they're trying to get me situation on... It's wreaking complete havoc with me... Anyway... Here's how fabulous my weekend was...

First, we met Ronald McDonald... He gave us crazy straws and crayons...




Here's a quick conversation btw. Born Cool and Ronald...

BC: (leans in and whispers) That's not really your hair right? It's a clown wig or something...

RM: Actually, you're right. It is a clown wig. And see this make-up? It's clown make-up. I think you should look up clowns on the internet.

BC: Ok. I'll do that. But, if I do, will you give me that iPod you're giving away? I don't have one yet.

RM: I'll see what I can do. I think you're mom wants to take a picture now.

To keep in step with the time order, we then drove to soccer practice. On the way, we saw something spectacular. The nearest college's mascot is a tiger. Well, we passed him. Him and his 6 police car/sherriff car brigade. It's the coolest thing. They cart this tiger around in this mobile cage. He just sits in his cage, all majestic and stuff. It is a cool site to see. Next time, I'll pull a u-turn and follow him home. I'll probably get arrested, but that's ok. I'll know where he lives.

Super Chick and Bear came over that afternoon... Here's Bear. He's the cutest thing ever... We went to Old Navy and S.C. bought the kids fries...



Que Sunday... We went to church with my parents. Then we went to Ihop... Born Cool talked about pie the whole time... and how rich peanut butter is... What the? Anyway, Animal Planet shows up in the "big city" (like 30 min away)... I was really excited when I heard about it; but unfortunately, it turned out to be kinda second rate. However, I got some good pictures...







See that snake? I tried to steal her, but she wouldn't fit in my purse... Damn. I would have loved to put her in my tub... It would have scared the piss out of Rain and I would have laughed and laughed...
Well, so... I ran my mouth... At least I had a lot of pictures...

Man that Ronald looks even creepier than most. He looks like the sort of clown that would drives a van with one tear drop window in the back. Creeeeepyyyy.

I think Bear looks JUST LIKE Super Chick!

Momma said...

Your kids are adorable by the way.
I agree, that Ronald looks like a chester.
I was laughing at the thought of you trying to sneak away with that big ole snake.

I once saw Ronald McDonald making out with someone I only assume was his "Ms. McDonald" outside of the local Ronald McDonald house. Burned in my brain forever.

Kirsten said...

Sounds like you're actually a good mom and do stuff with your kids. That's weird!! ;)

AK: His make-up was rather thick... I looked for the van. It must have been well hidden.

Lipstick: Yes, Bear does, doesn't he??

Shan: Get this... According to the tax assessor, my yard is just over 1/3 of an acre. Pitfull... See what happens when I fall behind... I needed that snake...

MWP: Haha... You would have laughed if I could have taped Rain's reaction...

DOM: Very action packed...

Georgie: You're right... I would NEVER go see that Burger King guy... Unless I was packin'...

Plantbuddy: Ha! Sounds like it, huh? Only flowers, strawberries and tomatoes this year...

HDandQB: This is disturbing news... I would have been scarred as well...

Kirsten: I gave them the weekend off for the usual screaming... They wanted to know what I had done with their real mom...

I was always afraid of Ronald when I was a kid. I think it's the hair. I agree with the acorn king. That Ronald is definitely a washed up 70's porn star!
