Dumbass be my name

Posted on November 30, 2007

I’ve been trying to log on all damn day. ALL.DAMN.DAY!! I haven’t been able to people. Do you have any idea how much of an internets addict I am? Well do you?? Huh?? DO YOU???? I was breaking out in a cold sweat. It was getting pretty ugly there for a while.

Luckily I’m all better now. The sweet sweet juice of the internets is flowing through my veins again.

So how am I a Dumb-ass you ask. Weeeeell it all started when my cordless phone decided to shit the bed. I’ve been running madly up the stairs to the bedroom whenever the phone rings. Wal made a very good point when he asked why I didn’t just bring the corded phone down here. Aaaaw grasshopper you have a good idea. So this morning after running madly up the stairs again I unplugged the phone and took it down stairs. I get my a$$ all comfy on my chair and open up explorer. nada. hmm try it again. nada. hmm maybe I should reboot. nada. hmmm check my wireless connection. nada. REBOOT AGAIN. NADA! NADA! NADA! OOOH my god panic starts to set in. I can’t connect to the internets. I make myself a cup of tea– because I’m English enough now that a cup of tea makes EVERYTHING better. Except it didn’t. Still no internet. I even put Squidge on the problem.

Unfortunately she wasn’t able to get it working.

HOURS later after writhing on the floor from my massive internets withdrawal I remember that I had unplugged the phone. I remember unplugging a black cord as well. I remember wondering what that was for and thinking it was for the printer. I FINALLY realize that it was for the wireless modem thingy. HA! LEY! LOU! YA! So I run madly up the stairs and plug that puppy in. I run madly down the stairs and try my internets. HA! LEY! LOU! YA! So here I am people back on the internets. I’m feeling much better thank you for asking. Squidge feels better too. A happy mummy makes a happy Squidge.

OH.MY.GOD. Y’ALL!!

What a day and it’s not even half over!

This morning Squidge and I went to Head over Heels again. We were supposed to meet Victoria and Byrney. Unfortunately V had some sort of fender bender so she couldn’t make it. We bumped into loads of people we knew. Squidge had a great time.

I on the other hand have aged 10 years. I thought I lost her. One minute she was by the giant slide in the big kids section and the next she was gone. I looked and looked and looked for her and I couldn’t find her. I crawled and shimmied all over the damn place looking for her and I couldn’t find her. I then went to the place where we usually play and still couldn’t find her so I turned to Byrney and Andrea and burst into tears. They knew I had been looking for her and when I said I still couldn’t find her and started crying they jumped into action (cue action music) Byrney who apparently knows my child better than I do made a bee-line for the cafe and in about 2 minutes had found her. Quietly, calmly sitting at someones table. What was she doing? Nothing, apparently. Just sitting there. OH.MY.GOD.Y’ALL!! That was the worst feeling ever. We played for a bit longer then decided that mama needed some food and we all headed out to McD’s.

When I got home do you know what I found?? Come one any guesses?? Ooh I know that you know what I found. I’ll wait while you think.……

dooo doo

deeee deee doooo

duuum deeedy duuuum

ditty ditty

so did you guess correctly??

Can you freaking believe it?!!?! It’s like some sort of sick joke. Are they reading this blog and just f&%king with me? I called the traffic police again and I also called the council. AAaargh! I know nothing is going to happen but I just want them to have a record of this on file. I’m thinking they don’t know it’s a problem because no one ever calls. Well I’M calling!! Grrr!! So an old couple got in the car before the police got there. I opened the door and said ‘I’d appreciate it if you wouldn’t park there in the future as you’re blocking my drive’. to which the old lady apologized. I was too pissed off to be nice and just told her I was sure she was sorry and just closed the door. I didn’t shout. I didn’t slam the door. I didn’t do all the hugely violent things I wanted to do. So I’m getting really tired of posting about this but I do want to put out a challenge. “You Know Who” and Vic got me thinking… I should put a letter on their windshield/screen. Soo kindly people of blogoshere help me write this letter. I’d like to be sarcastic and cutting without sounding rude and I don’t want to stoop to their level. I want to rip them a new a$$hole while sounding ooooh sooo very sweet. SO go forth and submit these letters. A prize will be given for the one used. you can send it to me at lindylala[at]gmail[dot]com

It’s the cops!

Posted on November 27, 2007

Squidge and I went to a new play group today. It’s her first toddler group and she had a good time. We were only there for about 30 minutes as we were running very late.

This is Squidge on her way to the toddler group. She’s wearing her new winter coat– isn’t she a cutie?!??! I’m searching for new play groups, Squidge is outgrowing her baby groups and needs the stimulation of the toddler groups. We’ve also switched our aquababies class from Tuesdays to Thursdays so we won’t be going to our Thursday group. Sorry for the very boring post but this IS my life.

Oh wait I just remembered– the day wasn’t all boring. I found this when I looked out the window.

So I called the traffic police and had a chat with them. Basically there isn’t anything they can do about it. YES it is illegal. YES I need to call the police. NO they can not fine them. WTF! What do you mean it’s illegal but you can’t do anything about it. So what does it mean that it’s illegal if there aren’t any consequences. Someone needs to help me understand the meaning of illegal. I thought there were consequences to doing something illegal. If I steal a car I’ll go to jail because it’s ILLEGAL. I’ve BROKEN THE LAW. There are CONSEQUENCES. Anyhoo if anyone wants to explain to me how this illegal stuff works I’ll be much obliged. The police did show up and I tried to take a sneaky photo.
