Random thangs said today...

(before clearing out the room with a horrendous air biscuit)

Tristan: FIRE IN THE HOLE!

(afterward)

Tristan: Ah man, that was GROSS. MEDIC!!!

(trying to get him to do his reading for the day)

Owen: But I just can't read today.

Me: Give me one good reason why you absolutely cannot do your homework today.

Owen: Um... cause I too sexy for my homework.

(responding to Owen taking her My Little Pony)

Leila: Give it back, Ow-en!

Owen: Nope. Make me.

Leila: Pleeaase Ow-en.

Owen: Whacha gonna do?

Leila: I poop in your pocket!

Owen: Ewwww. Here. Take it.

New Sofas

I need new sofas. Every single time I go to Ikea, I drool over these Karlstad sofa combinations. I would go with the medium gray color on top.

My problem is that I just get sick of looking at the same old stuff all the time. Luckily enough, I found a company who makes slipcovers specifically for Ikea furniture. Bemz designs a ton of fun prints and fabrics to give new life to Ikea sofas and chairs. The Classic Ruta - Black (or simply checkered) slipcover is SO Jay and I. I was excited to find that they did have Houndstooth, but in Dusty Rose. Gross.

Time to save our pennies!

i HEART houndstooth

I bought these ridiculously adorable Sally Hansen houndstooth nail polish strips. I wanted them for my toes because I work with my hands all day and they would get trashed in like 2.2 seconds, so I never bother. The problem is that my little toes have little toe nails and it looked sort of silly. So, I decided to rock the houndstooth big toe style. And yes, I know I have crazy long, alien toes.

Tainted Love

I listen to Pandora 80's Pop Radio all day long. So I was grooving out to "Tainted Love" right? Tristan walks up to me with a smart-arse smirk on his face and asks, "Hey mom, what does the taint have to do with love anyway?"

Word of the Day

Vagina-Boob

(fighting over storm troopers)

Tristan: Owen, don't make me punch you in the neck!

Owen: I'll punch you in the vagina-boob!

And the award for Most Creative Threat goes to... Omax!
