I am so listening. I am. I'm memorizing every word you speak and at the same time, I'm noticing that your socks are different colors and there is egg yolk on your chin. And this whole conversation you don't think I'm listening to will appear in my next blog. So you might as well forgive me now.

Quote of the day
"Sometimes the best teaching tool is keeping your piehole shut." -Weedy
The really funny part, Jess, is that I would describe Weedy as a fairly gracious person, capable of incredible levels of tact and diplomacy. But often, God love 'er, she comes out with things like this. For example, after my father died, she was, of course, very kind - but as we were talking about how the death of a parent changes your perspective she said, "And let's face it. It lets you know you're next in the hopper." When she came out with this one last night, I had to post it so I'd be sure not to forget.

OMG, that's laugh-out-loud brilliant, Weedy.

Yes, that's one I've heard before, but not quite so quaintly put.
Such profundity, such truth!

I LOVE the term "piehole" because it makes me giggle.
