Not Forbidden Enough, Apparently

Scene: Living Room. Gina and Hubba-hubba watching the news.

News Anchor: And up next, the story of a man who left his kids in the car while he went to a strip club.

Hubba-hubba: So where was the crime in that?

Gina: silence

Hubba-hubba: Hey, that picture showed Tabu night club, is that the one that's off the 91 freeway?

Gina: looks at him Like I would know?

Hubba-hubba: Oh no, wait, that one was Tabu with a "u" and the one off the 91 is Taboo with two "o's."

Gina: And I cannot even begin to tell you how pleased I am that you knew that.

You got some work to do girl. My man would be too terrified to even admit that he knew there was a strip club in the STATE!! *gaffaw*

I am thinking, wake him in the middle of the night, stare into his eyes and say 'What was that you were saying about the strip club?' Couple of nights should do it.

Now I guess you'll have to ask Mr. P if he's ever sat in the car while Daddy ran in to "meet some friends." :-)

I'm sure HubbaHubba only knows about the place because his buddy goes there.

And yet, when it comes to information such as anniversary and birthday dates, they're clueless.

I don't think I'll ever get it...

Onward

The end of the school year, finally! Did I tell you that my son went to public school this past year? Did I tell you that my daughter was in a regular Kinder classroom this year? Although it was nice to have them both in school, there were definitely things I was not so hip on, such as having to wake up at 5:20 every morning just to get everyone out the door on time.  And then after all the driving and dropping off, going to work. Such fun! I had forgotten the dreariness of having to complete mounds and mounds of homework (even though new research has shown that homework, especially for Kinder, is for shit).  Of constant deadlines and fundraisers and things I am supposed to volunteer for. My daughter had a good year, but was definitely not without its bumps. Her teacher, an older, highly experienced, practical woman with a Master's in Education, kept referring to my daughter as an "inclusion student."  It wasn't her name or just "student" but was...

Apples and Oranges

Perhaps some of you may have noticed, but the real estate market is beginning a tumble in prices that benefit us, prospective buyers. And we're going to wait. That is cold, cold comfort to those such as J and Py , who are attempting to sell their place as we speak. But, we're not going to wait too much longer, if that makes them feel any better. There is no sense trying to time the bottom of the market, and we have been putting off moving, oh, since Mr. P was born because of the huge runup in prices. So huge that at one point, we could barely afford to buy our own place from ourselves. We should be ok even if we sell at a lower price than we could have gotten say, two years ago. We have, however, a dilemma. We have narrowed our choices down to two cities. And we are stuck there. We just can't figure out which city is better, and they are oh-so-different. Let me give you a rundown. City 1 Older, smaller houses (in our price range) Larger lots Beach city Infrastructure...

D-A-N-G

As with all young children, for a very long time we parents rely on the old "spell the word out" trick for talking about things in front of them that we don't want them to know. Well, our time seems just about up. Hubba-hubba was trying to tell me about an upcoming event in which Santa would be making an appearance. As Mr. P is very much into Christmas this year, we knew that any mention of Santa would bring a long soliliquoy about how Santa is magic and how he makes the toys and how he has a list and on and on and on. And at that moment, we just didn't feel like hearing it. Don't judge people, don't judge. So, Hubba-hubba spelled out "S-A-N-T-A." "Hey, what did you just say?" said the five year old. "Nothing" lied replied his father. "I know what you said, Daddy! You said Santa!" Anybody know a place that sells semaphore flags?
