- Miss T prefers the green Applejacks over the orange ones.
- Gas is about $0.25 cheaper in my hometown than it is where I currently live.
- I can totally rock the vocals to Living on a Prayer on Rock Band 2 – 99% accuracy, baby!             Â
- Guitar Hero on Wii is addictive.
- I’m really sick of the Star Wars Lego Wii game, mostly because I’m left to baby-wrangle while N is the chosen one to play with AE.
- Toy strollers break when a toddler sits in them.
- Certain damages to toy strollers can be repaired with use of a needle and thread.
- NCIS DVD box sets are incredibly hard to come by and ridiculously expensive.
- If current trends are any indicator, I need to put $1030 aside for Christmas 2009.
- Homemade jalapeno-ranch dip makes an excellent condiment on ham sandwiches.
- My parents still think that Miracle Whip is the same as mayonnaise.
- I can actually beat N at the new 25th anniversary edition of Trivial Pursuit, even playing with standard rules.
- If you do not respond to a 6-year-old’s comment in a timely fashion, he will repeat himself. Again and again. And again.
- Even if you tell a child that you understand what he is talking about, he will continue to explain what he is saying in one long drawn out sentence that does not end, nor does it have any punctuation and soon you will wish you were deaf.
- It is indeed possible for a child to talk continuously, seemingly without ever taking a breath.
- Time off from work is far more exhausting than actually working a 40-hour week, if decidedly less stressful.
- Miss T can climb on furniture and therefore cannot be left alone even for a second.
- AE was a very placid, docile toddler.
- Even the best honey-baked ham becomes nausea-inducing when consumed as a part of every meal for days on end.
- Having a baby 2 days after Christmas is poor timing when you consider gifts and parties.
- Miss T really likes Ritz crackers.
- It is a scientific impossibility that two children will sleep in on the same day at the same time.
- It is extremely probable that if one child sleeps until 7 a.m., the other one was up for the day at 4:55.
- When you are the mom, it doesn’t matter what you want to do/watch/play/think of/talk about until the kids go to bed.
- If my husband eats leftovers that I was planning to use in another meal, I will get irrationally angry about it and a very stupid argument will ensue.
- Nail polish that appears to be a pleasing shade of bluish-turquoise in the bottle is actually just barely tinted glitter when applied.
- OPI nail polish for $2.50 per bottle is not as good of a deal as it would seem as there is clearly a reason it is marked so far down.
- It is far more pleasant to grocery shop when all of the college students are gone.
- Everyone likes to look at fun pictures.
