The Art of Invisibility

[mizjjd]

Alrighty then fellow DBers!! Been a busy week in this small midwestern town - for this small midwestern woman at any rate.

H related episodes that stuck in my skull.

4/22 Mon @ a track meet. I thought H said something to me.

MizJay "Sorry, what was that?"

H "Quiet! I'm trying to hear what they're saying! ("they" would be the 2 moms in front of us, discussing track records set 27 years ago) I'm trying to get more involved, which is what you should be doing."

4/23 Tue

MizJay "H, I know you were planning to go to the casino this weekend, but it is prom weekend and the "AfterProm" parents are looking for volunteers to help out. I am signed up, but can't stay until 4am because I work @ fastfoodland Sunday morning. It would be a great way for you to get involved."

H "Not going to happen. I am already committed to going gambling this weekend."

4/24 Wed

H "My S25 (from 2nd M) is moving and wants to borrow $200. Pull that out of the bank for me."

MizJay "Why don't you just loan from your gambling $? After all, it is already the right currency..."

H "What? Can't we afford to give S25 $200?"

MizJay "Well, we are a little short this month, what with you spending 2 weeks @ your folks."

H "Make it work. My gambling bank roll is not to be touched for anything but gambling!!"

4/26 Fri

H text is misunderstood by MizJay.

MizJay responds, "What? They wouldn't let you into Canada?! OMG! What are you going to do now?"

H responds, explains that MizJay misunderstood and he is indeed safely across the border and @ the casino.

MizJay realizes H will not be home for the next 48 hours.... and feels great relief.

One of these days H.... one of these days... POW!! To the moon!!

In other news. My wonderfuljob bosses seem to like me (Actually, I believe the terms "awesome", "wonderchild", and "rocks the house" were used )

I have to figure out the college "orientation" thing, because I don't want to have to miss work for it, so not much progress there.

I did get myself a snazzy new purse which oh! brings up another wannaknockHonthehead story. While I was purse shopping a cosmetic counter lady (fascinating and somewhat frightening species) snagged me to let me know about an offer they have right now. It does happen to be for one of my fave scent lines, and Mother's Day does happen to be approaching, SO I informed the living room, in which were H and the twins. H of course used this opportunity to remind me that I am not his mother. (Really? Do tell!! Ugh!!) and then for the kicker threw in "I already take care of you." (When you read the news about the midwestern woman whose head exploded, you all will say "oh. that must have been MizJay.")

Anyway. Thank you all for stopping by

I have a busy weekend lined up here. I hope everyone finds some thread of happiness and sanity for themselves.

Cheers!!
