Okay, I've covered whining and abstract thought in my other two blogs today.  Now I'm heading for humor.

A while back I blogged about a conversation I had with my daughter where she revealed to me that her brother had created a new persona.

Well, a few weeks back I was again driving in the car with her and  my son.  We were giggling and trying to imagine how Sweetie's high school years would be impacted by the reputation of her brother and psycho mother.  She mentioned that she could never surpass his Captain Underwear costume on super hero day.

I don't know what got into me, but I suggested that she get a guest pass for her brother and they could go as .............. drum roll ...................

CAPTAIN UNDERWEAR AND HIS TRUSTY SIDE KICK GIRDLE GIRL!!!

Again we nearly lost control of the car as we laughed until fluids started to escape all kinds of places.  So now, whenever things get tense one of us will pipe up in a sing song type voice.

"Never fear!  Captn Underwear and Girdle Girl are here to save the day!!!"

So, does that make me Jeeves the butler much like Alfred in Batman?!  Yes, the genetics for humor do run deep.  Now I need to find a girdle small enough to fit her.

    ah the insanity of family humor keeps us sane!

    Crackin' me up good!  Girdle Girl! 
     
    My step-son showed up home from  school one day (no one had supervised his dressing that day to catch the bus) with his dad's camo pants, boots, and a rope to hold up the pants.
     
    When asked "What the hell?"
     
    He just said he wanted to wear hunting clothes to school.  Guess that day he was "Camo-Man!"

    moon - yes, we kept the car out of this joke. ;)  I think my daughter may have even drooled.

I can't believe it.....one of my five brothers passed away this morning from a massive sudden heart attack.....I believe he was 52......I am in total shock......I really don't know what to feel......I'm sad.....I've cried.....my eyes burn.....he w...
I don't even know what else to say...

I just got home from the hospital. I was admitted with cellulitis (sp?) on Tuesday night and had a fever of 103. ...
lately other things have been on my mind. of course, this is understandable given what has happened. but i'm finding that these other things are getting in the way. and it's really hard to separate them from the reality of what has happened....
