Friday Fragments

I hope that next week I will get my blogging mojo back, but in the meantime, I can always find some random crap...Join in with your random crap with Mrs.4444...

*** I messed up the diet and was too depressed to work out this week. So sue my fat ass! Monday's KMBFBAG should be fun in a humiliating kind of way. You can always join in with us- don't forget- hungry, carb lusting, stomach growling miserable bitches like company!

*** A real life friend that reads my blog (one of the few chosen ones) e-mailed me to "cheer me up" in the "my life is suckier than yours" kind of way. She and her husband struggled with infertility for 7 years. Then, with some intervention, she had a daughter who now is 4. Then she had twins who just turned 1 and they were done.

She just found out she's pregnant again- with no help- just old fashioned wild rabbit sex out of boredom because they live in a small town with nothing else to do- SURPRISE! Dude, I told you to start a blog months ago- that would have taken up your time and you wouldn't have gone and gotten knocked up again! And I'm sooo holding you to your offer to send me your leftover meds- it's not about me -we just don't want this kid to have 12 toes or anything!

*** I will soon have Blogher ads- woo hoo! If I get through all the directions, I didn't read it thoroughly yet, but I think I saw something about html, codes, firstborn and vile of blood- wish me luck. If I make any money I will tell my husband that I have to go to Blogher since I'm employed by them- it's work, right?

*** In 'breakthrough' news... my husband read my blog in length yesterday, for the first time. I'm still alive. Soon, I'm going to spring Blogher onto him... So now, I need ya'll to send me a plea (for him) of who you are and how you have better things to do with your trip to Chicago than chop me up into little pieces, hustle me for all of my NO MONEY, or try to woo me into being your bitch.

***Oscar Twitter Party is on Sunday- can't wait!!! If you wanna 'attend' go sign up with Jen. It should be highly entertaining, I might even get drunk so my tripping down the red carpet will take away attention from my backfat!

*** All of my kids were winter babies. Nov. thru March is birthdaypalooza around here! One in November, then Christmas, one in January, one in February, and one in early March. I have a hard time reprogramming my brain with their new ages until our birthday season is over. So, even though my son is technically 14 and one of my daughters is 8, I still consider them 13 and 7- until I can adjust all of the ages at once. I thought of that when I looked at the out of date ages in my sidebar. They'll change in March, so you know, like you care!

*** and in fuck, fuckity, fuck news... I received this...at 2:30 Thursday...

Dear Parents,

Due to a problem with our septic system our restrooms are unable to used. Our plumber has indicated that an expert needs to be called. They will not be able to come until tomorrow at 10 a.m. Therefore, we will not have school tomorrow. The teachers will have an in-service day. At this time, our students our using the restrooms in the church until the end of the day.

I realize that this is an inconvenience for all. Please understand that we are unable to have school in this situation.

God bless you
Peace in Christ,


So a 4 day week- turns into a 3 day week! Why, again, am I paying so much money for this school?


*** 4 kids all home today and, the brainiac that I am, I waited for Friday to do my grocery shopping! That should be fun!!!

*** On a slightly positive note, we received our MUCH NEEDED tax check in the bank this morning. It won't solve any of my financial problems, but it should buy me enough time while I'm perfecting my pole dancing skills.

I applied for the BlogHer ads months ago but never went through the process of getting them on my site. I was so many damn steps! I'm not good with steps.

Getting drunk on Sunday sounds fun!

Jenni said...

I will be at Jen's Twitter party! I am bringing wine and brownies!

Kim said...

Grocery shopping sounds good - leave all the kids home and RUN OUT OF THE HOUSE AS FAST AS YOU CAN! Also stop at the nearest bar on your way home.

Unknown said...

I think your random crap Fridays are filled with mojo....at least to me it seems that way. I've been so fried recently on everything blog-related so I'll be looking for my mojo too. :-)

BlogHer - wow - it's been on my mind - I think I wanna go but I'm also unsure if I'll still even have a blog in July... oh the agony. :-}

Good luck with hubs - if he's reading your stuff he'll get behind you I'm sure. And I don't mean that in a getting behind you kind of way... :-)

Happy Friday!

WAIT 'til you read my Monday post. I am a new woman thanks to a little app called Lose It! that I downloaded to my iPhone. I don't think I've eaten in 3 days, I'm so freaked out over food now and I've worked out every.single.day. It's Bizzarro World with Bizzaro Coco...

Piece o' Coconut Cake said...

P.S. Take out your damn word verification! It's annoying as hell!
Lova ya!

Sticky said...

I think I could copy half of your randomness straight into my blog...Does that make it not random...?

Deb said...

see, we might have a problem here. i am thinking about going to blogher, too, and i DO plan to make you my bitch!

Dawn said...

Your comment to your pregnant friend CRACKED ME UP!!!

I applied for the blogher ads but have yet been 'accepted'. Ugh!

I'd love to go to Blogher or Blissdom next year. It will just depend on it we can afford it at the time. Money issues takes away all my fun!

Sorry about the kids being home because of no potties! Ack!

Tami said...

"perfecting my pole dancing skills"

YOU CRACK ME UP!!!

Melissa said...

HOLY.FRICK! You crack me up. Thanks for laugh. And your pg friend. BUSTED.A.SCREW!

Happy Friday to you!!

Unknown said...

I always LOVE your FF....this was my first time to join in...and i find i am still not worthy when i read your friggin funny post!!!!

J'Ollie Primitives said...

Did Hubby laugh at your posts? (In a good way)
He better have, they're GOOD. In a good way.

Debz said...

I tried to get Blogher ads a few months ago, but they said they weren't taking anymore peeps. Who'd you have to sleep with to get in?

As much as I would love to go to BlogHer, I don't see it happening. But if it doesn, I absolutely cannot convince your hubby I wont make you my bitch. Your hot. Sorry dude.

Deb said...

Ok, wait, with ALL THAT MONEY YOU PAY THEM they couldn't bring in port-o-potties?

Sheesh. Sorry you had a short week. Btw - I love your F. Fragments!

Sue Wilkey said...

Dear Mr. Tena:

Tena needs to go to BlogHer to support her soul. We promise we won't chop her into pieces. She will give you sex when she gets back, because she will feel like a complete person again - like the person she used to be before she became a wife and mother. And we all need that, Mr. Tena - more than you know.

Mrs4444 said...

You sure are ornery :) I mean that in a good way, and keep in mind that different parts of the country use that word differently. I can't really explain it, but it's a cute thing; sassy and cute.

Anyway, hmmm. Now I've forgotten what I was going to say. Any interest in changing your Comment settings to Open in a Pop-Up so that I can still see the post when I'm commenting? Love you... :)

Susan said...

Can I just tell you my biggest fear is being 40 and pregos! Only 3 more weeks and I'll be 41... maybe I'll be off the hook??? HMMM... I feel for your friend! And the school...... couldn't they have gone today, used the church bathrooms and had the problem fixed over the weekend???? I would have loved to have the day at home because it would have been a day off for me.... no kids, no health room.... but I know if you work you have to work something out and if you're a SAHM you really don't want your kids home for ANOTHER day!!!

The Mom Jen said...

Yay on hubs...taking a step into the right direction...reading your posts...he's going to hate all your friends now. *skeered*

Sheila said...

Twitter Party, Hell I'm gonna be asleep twittern' in my dreams. It's Thanh's turn to put the booboo to bed.
You know we do the home school thing over here. So, if I didn't want to clean the bathrooms one day & sent my husband one of those notes. Where do you think I could send my kids for a damn day off? HA HA

Dorsey said...

Damn! Now I'm going to have to come up wt a DIFFERENT excuse!! I was SOO wanting to make you my bitch! Ah well...back to the drawing board.

Evolving Mommy Catherine said...

Wahoo for tax refunds!

Paige said...

Our tax refund showed up today too--hallelujah!

I have to say that is the first time I ever heard of school closed for backed up shitters.

First time for everything, I guess

Aracely said...

Dude you are so going to Blogher for work! Don'y you live near Chicago? I seem to think the whole mid-west is near Chicago ;-)

Mrs4444 said...

Okay, now not only are your boobs popping out, but your comments are, too!! Yea!!

So, what did the hubby say about the blog??

Anonymous said...

Hey there slacker!!!!

Just wanted to let you know that you have been nominated over at Hot Dads!!!!

Brittany said...

You must come to Blogher!

And I happen to love your Friday Fragments!

Unknown said...

Make that money! Thanks for stopping by the blog! I needed that!

Allison said...

It makes me happy to know that I am not the only one whose man doesn't read their blog.

I can't make it to BlogHer and so instead decided to travel to michigan to see my Blog friends - who I have never met in real life. It seemed normal though. I am not telling anyone else though. Just you.

Coachdad said...

That septic deal is a shitty situation... as a single dad, I love school days. Found you by reading your comment on Hot Dads today. Too funny. As one of the writers on Hot Dads, you got my vote!

Screw groceries, take the tax return, hide it and go to Blogher! Especially if it isn't going to help anywhere else.

Anonymous said...

Lol. Embrace your back fat, come to terms with it. Learn to love it! It hasn't worked for me yet but I'm trying to enjoy it!

Annie said...

I would have volunteered to rent a port a potty!
