Well, this is going to be a short one today.
Why?
Well, first off (and surely I'm not the only one to notice this) Blogger decided to go walkabout last night and I sat here for a solid hour not even being able to log on. At midnight I said Buck It, and I went to bed. This is the first time in forever that I haven't posted before I went to sleep and it made me twitchy. I just love waking up to all those fab comments already there.
Why?
I just do, okay? So here I am at zero dark thirty, which is not, take my word for it, my shining hour, trying to say something that isn't gibberish.
How about a Surfer Dude story?
Last week we were in the car and the subject came up of boy-girl couples. Evidently in Gumby's sixth grade class there are already two boyfriend-girlfriend types pairings. I asked if either one of them had an interest in that and (thank you!) got two wrinkled noses and derisive snorts in return.
I was teasing them and I said something about girls liking boyfriends and they said "MOM! You're married, you can't have boyfriends. It's against the rules."
And then Surfer Dude, after mulling it over a second slowly said, "Although, Dad does travel a lot."

Kids! Where do they pick this stuff up from?
Go and grab a very strong cup of coffee now to wake yourself up.

For all the wonderful things computers can do, they are really very stupid.
I wonder how I'll be when my kid brings home a boyfriend. Eek.
Dad travels a lot. Ha!
Comments: They're like the notes you passed in the halls (and behind your desk) at school. Little bits of sunshine in any day. You'd think that'd make me post more.
LOL, "dark-thirty" may not be your shining hour, but that was an amusing story.
I'm thankfully a long way off from "boyfriends" in our house. Althought, TFYO already has a group of male friends at school whom she refers to as "My Boys".
And we all love comments. It's a marvelous stroke to the ego to think anyone wants to read what we write. Or maybe that's just me.
Dad may travel a lot, but I think the last thing you need in your life is another boy! I checked a couple of times last night and wondered why there wasn't a new post. Glad you were back this morning.
out of the mouth of babes, eh? lol
yes, i was surprised that you hadn't posted while i was up until 3:30 a.m. this morn. curse that blogger! and you're right...comments are cool to come back to :)
We must have early bloomers here in the west since my sweetP already has girls trying to kiss him. He is six. Yikes, I'm in trouble. And I was relieved when he said "yuck!"
I agree bedtime blogging is easier!
Gah! That's so hilarious and disturbing all at once!
I've become a post before bedder as well. Loooove that wake up to comments feeling. Sorry blogger was messin' with ya!
Three years ago my daughter got really interested in boys. I promised her a puppy if she didn't have any boyfriends till the end of the school year. And here we are three years on, and still no boyfriends. That girl really wants a dog.
The innocence of youth isn't quite so innocent is it!

Hmmm, It' difficult to find fault with his logic...
