Mr. Clean. Inject your foot with Botulism. Farting Outside. Ass meds. All in one post. THAT, Folks, is why they pay me the BIG bucks.

Man. I had a hard time figuring out what to write about today. It's kind of scattered....

Mr. Clean died. I thought about writing how I couldn't possibly clean my house out of respect for his passing. But then I thought, "Nah, they'll know that's bullshit. I can't possibly clean my house because I can't vacuum while blogging on my laptop."

Then I saw that Sharon Stone is in a custody battle for her kid. Her ex-husband said that she's unfit because, when they noticed that their kid had a foot odor problem, Sharon's solution was to get him Botox injections in the feet. Poor kid. She'd probably schedule it after his colonic but before his Scientology "briefing" (aka brain washing). The ex further demonstrated his parental strengths by stating his solution was to get the kid to wear socks and put powder in his shoes.

How weird. We actually have a kid with stinky feet. And just this morning I insisted - over great resistance - that said child wear socks and utilize foot powder. After reading the thing about the Stone family, I tried imagining a debate with my husband where I would say, "No, no, no! Foot powder...pffft! That's SO, like, five minutes ago! What we need to do is inject her foot with botulism!"

I could, however, tell my kid that if she doesn't do the sock/powder thing without carping about it that I'll take her to the doctor where she'll be given a shot in the bottom of her foot. Hmmm. Something tells me there will be no more morning arguments on the matter...thanks, Sharon!

Yesterday I was teaching one of my kids to ride a bike. Another one of my kids (they're everywhere, you know) had a little meltdown and was sent to the house. I felt kind of bad for her because she was crying and her little hands were balled up in frustration. But she was being bad and needed to go chill out in her room. She was almost home when she farted so loudly that it echoed in the cul-de-sac I was sitting in. I thought someone had discharged a firearm or something.

As I sat there laughing, I contemplated that if someone were deaf and watching us, I would appear to be a very callous mother because I sent my upset daughter away, and then threw my head back in laughter. And, of course, anyone else watching would just have reaffirmation that I am indeed very immature for a 40 year old.

I once saw someone I know in the pharmacy buying industrial sized tubes of every ass medication available. Hemorrhoid suppositories and cream, anti-diarrhea pills, anti-flatulence pellets, and Tang flavored fiber drinks. He's not a very pleasant guy so I avoided him in the store. But now I know his little stinky secret. And every time he's acting like a prick I want to say, "Hey, by any chance do you have an inflamed hemorrhoid right now? I think you might...."

Itchy butts is to hemorrhoid cream like bex is to humor-blogs. (Did I just liken myself to an itchy butt???)

Normally, I think Sharon Stone is a freak show on roller skates, but actually, in this case, she might be right. Botox is used in cases of unnatural sweating because it blocks the sweat glands or something. I have a friend who had it done to his hands because of excessively sweaty palms. Now, she may be an unfit mother because she runs around with no drawers on, but that's a separate issue.

Have to laugh at your kiddo. I wonder if she felt better after she relieved that pressure?

Bex, you're a nut...and I mean that in a good way. Kids crack me up when they do things unintentially like that.
Did you compare yourself to an itchy butt??? You're a lot funnier.

The Dunkin Donuts Dilemna

I am always amazed when I leave my home in the early hours of the morning and there are people out and about. I can barely see the runners (as the sun isn't yet passed the horizon) but they are hoofing it up the hill. Don't these people know that they should be home - in bed - snuggled up???! So you can imagine my surprise when, at 6AM, I saw the impressive line at my local Dunkin Donuts. But we were heading out of town on a road trip with 3 little kids (all under 8) and a 2 month old puppy. I know what you are thinking...WHY??! We very anxiously wanted to travel for a little bit of more pain - AKA my 20th High School reunion. Maybe more on that later... As if this all weren't bad enough, my husband and I had been to a party the night before and I had just the slightest headache. So I needed coffee and like all reasonable people I went to the Dunkin Donuts because their coffee is THE BEST coffee anywhere! Starbucks can kiss my lilly white! But I digress... So I get in the l...

A Housewife's Dirty Confession...

I have Vaseline underneath my right index finger nail. No amount of soap and water seems to vanquish it. Sshhhhh. Don't tell anyone, K? Because that could lead to awkward questions. But I'll tell you what - today, just for shits and giggles, let's skip the questions completely and just go to the answers. And, GO. Projectile vomiting. One massive pile in the doctor's waiting room. Once in the car. Twice at home. Yes, that IS a lot of puke for a two year old. Anal suppositories. TWICE. No I am not honoring my pledge to lay off of the cosmo's for a while and fuck you for bringing that up after the day I've had. Did this make you smile? Or were you just envious that you didn't get to spend the morning pinning down a pissed off and puking two year old long enough to further enrage him by shoving a suppository up his ass? (thought so) Either way, feel free to click my HB smiley below. And, as always, if you're shopping around for funny blogs this is the pl...

Light a match!

You know, people are getting so touchy these days. I just read this news story about a THIRTEEN year old kid who got arrested. When I saw the headline I thought, "Man, this country is going to hell in a hand basket. What did this criminal mastermind DO, anyway?? Did he steal a car? Get his moms attention by throwing a cleaver at her head? Sexually assault his little sibling??" Noooo.... No, this kid farted in school. And then got arrested. Apparently I went to school with a bunch of felons and didn't even know it. Besides, have you seen what they feed these kids in school lunchrooms?? And "The Man" is going to blame intestinal distress on HIM??! Let's file this under "Give Me A Fucking Break, Please." The teacher said that he was purposefully farting and therefore disrupting the class. Plus? This little fucker turned off a few computers that his friends were working on. I think it would be far more incredible if you could find me a 13 year old who...
