With the advent of twitter lists (which I doubt I’ll ever get around to making myself because I hardly have time to write to-do or shopping lists let alone SEVERAL lists dividing my friends into groups — high school much? — and unintentionally snubbing them, which is bound to happen)…what was I saying? I forget because I got distracted by Whitney and Jay’s conversation on this eve’s rerun of MTV’s The City….

That picture is so last year, like, when Jay and Whitney were still together. But I didn’t have time to find any current pics of them. But I DID have time to watch THIS WEEK’s episode just now. And I just want to say that, if Elle Magazine wants to interview bloggers — because, as Joe Zee (Elle‘s creative director) puts it, “blogs are the places where news is breaking right now” — they should come TO ME, and my SLIPPERS…. Remember these?


Still wearing ‘em! There’s nothing these two less famous bloggers have that I don’t, right? I blog in my pajamas, too, and shop with my mother…? No? Yes? Elle?
If I don’t get into Elle Magazine, can I at least get on X-WEIGHTED? I need to lose these last 15. Or maybe I’ll just curl up on my couch with my Puffins and make twitter lists, instead. It’s safer here in my comfort zone…. Except right now. Because Josh just made clam chowder, and it STINKS in here.
So, I do have a little list JUST for this blog because my poor blog gets pushed aside so often these days for other more “pressing” things, and this really shouldn’t be, really saddens me, really has to stop because I love blogging…, and if one more thing goes to sh*t because I’m working too much, then something’s got to give. Because DOGGONE IT, I’m important.

So my list, ahem.
1. I love the way Rascal says “banana” — “badanan,” as in, “MO BADANAN, MAMA! MO BADANAN.”
2. Rascal eats too many badanans.
3. The Monkey is addicted to hugging. In the middle of the Swine Flu pandemic, she’s hugging strangers (not that it really matters because Swine Flu is air born).
4. I had Kabocha squash for dinner.
5. Rascal can count to two now. It’s official: “One, Doo, ONE!”
6. Monkey is obsessed with drawing me without a body because, apparently, “it’s too hard” to draw my body….

7. WHICH I choose to take as a compliment, because why not and DOGGONE IT!
8. I’m the disembodied turbaned head on the far left of the drawing — next to me is the artiste herself, her brother, and a caterpillar.
8. I am NOT too old to love The City, OR The Hills….
9. I also love the Glee, The Office, The Tudors, So You Think You Can Dance and Survivor.
10. I did watch V, but I will never watch it again.
11. Just like I will never watch Fringe again.
12. Or the Y&R, which I quit a month ago, WHICH should be a post in itself because it’s a big f-ing deal.
13. I want Russell to win Survivor.
14. I can’t end on #13 not because it’s “bad luck” but because it’s just a weird number to end on.
15. #15 is a better number to end on than #14.
16. I always go for the odd numbers.
17. OCD.
18. But, #18 is an ideal number to end LISTS on.
19. Even though it’s an odd number.
20. I think I’m into even now.

LOL good list. I was looking at the web site of a local coffee house (a kids and coffee place) and they had a bunch of “Kids Deserve Art” art on the walls!
I guess that means I HAVE to go there!

You are so funny. Thanks for making me laugh! My 20 month old also eats way too many bananas and she says, “mo bamma” – which oddly sounds a lot like Obama…

I love Glee as well! My husband teases me that I watch teenager shows (the Hills & the City)… so I quit the Hills and only watch the City now… weaning myself off of MTV reality shows slowly.

I love your list. I don’t like the twitter lists…as soon as I saw them I thought – hello jr high and high school. Booh. My daughter says nana for banana – love that. And Glee is one my favs- the only music I am listening to on my ipod these days….and The Office, SYTYCD, Modern Family among others (I watch too much tv – or at least have it pvr’d to watch someday…!). My hubby makes fun of me for my love of The Hills & The City (hello – I want to win tickets to the finale in NY!). Thanks for making me smile today – I needed it. xo
