Writer's Workshop Flu Shot, Da Bulls, Evil people and my sister Frances.

Over at Mama's Losin' It, she has a Writers Workshop, and I have been meaning to do them, you should go over there, check them out, do one yourself!

So she gave us some prompts to pick from, I chose to do a few. I will not be doing #1, I don't watch American Idol (well the auditions and the last show. :-D) and I don't sing well.

I will however do #2. which was...

2.) Take a picture of yourself right this minute without primping and explain to us why it is you have not washed your hair today.

Here you go. Me with 2 day old make-up on, and in my p.j.'s. Now it is only 8:05 am, I usually don't do my hair and make-up everyday, since I stay home with the kids. I haven't showered since Thursday, because I have the flu. Yesterday I only had the strength to get up and vomit. So a shower is on my agenda for the day. Sorry to frighten you this early in your day. I will hopefully make up for it with a less frightening picture of myself

eh, still kinda scary, but better.

The #3 prompt was about the NBA All Star Game and I haven't followed Basketball since the Bulls were kicking ass in the 90's. Moving on.

#4 prompt was a good one, I am always looking for a way to punish people in my head. It was...

4.) What's your number one pet peeve? Develop a punishment for anyone caught in the act.

Wow. My number one pet peeve? Just one? Hmmmm... I don't like slow drivers on the highway in the far left lane... no, there has to be worse... how about the door to door sales people that wake a napping house hold... that's a good one, but I am sure there is worse...

Ah yes. Now I know. Trying to explain this is hard... um, you know when your around a group of people, and there is that one person, or group of people that just flat out ignore you. Or blow you off constantly? The one's with the whole "I can't deal with you" attitude?

I loathe those people. There is a family member (no I will not name names) but every time I have seen this person, I am ignored. It must be both me and Spaghetti because this person blows us both off. Talks with EVERYONE else around us. But ignores us. Spaghetti and I are close to everyone in this persons immediate family, cept that one douche bag.

Sure I'm really friendly and I talk to anyone, but if you don't like me, couldn't you just say what your deal is? I guess not everyone rolls like that? I just can NOT stand when people ignore me. And to ignore Spaghetti too? WTF?

My punishment for you? That you are absolutely embarrassed in front of your family, for every time you ignore us. (which would be alot) Thanks to Mama Kat for letting me vent that one out.

And last but not least I did the #5 prompt to...

5.) Write about something mean you did to a sibling growing up.

All right Frances, I am sure you have a list somewhere... these are just a few of the mean things I did (and we are NOT counting the time I ran you over with my bike, grinding fresh blacktop into your knees, it's not my fault you threw yourself in front of my bike!)

• The time I told you I hated you. (Queen mom made me write "I love Frances" 10 times. Doesn't sound to bad? I was just learning to write, and I had that 3 lined paper, the one with the dotted line in the center. 10x's was ALOT)


• The time I cut off your She Ra dolls head off (it was an eraser that you loved to play with, in the shape of a SheRa doll. I think it went along with the "I hate you day")


• When you were just a baby. And I took one of your poopy diapers, and smeared it all over you and the crib. (tisk tisk)


• When I would ALWAYS give you the toy I never wanted, and the house I never wanted. (I don't share well)

Again thanks to Mama Kat, I will try to play along more often. These were good.
