10 Things I Learned This Week

It’s been a long while since I’ve done one of these, but it’s always fun to make a list of all the things I’m learning in my day-to-day life, no textbook required (although sometimes it would be desireable)!

1.  Owen is not a screwdriver.  He told me so.

2.  If you pretend to be Buzz Lightyear, wear a cardboard box for a helmet, and jump off the couch yelling, “to infinity and beyond!”, you will hit your head on the ceiling and possibly take out a light fixture…or two…

3.  Dorky family pictures don’t work out so well when you’re the only one who looks dorky in them.

4.  You have to wait a really, really long time to get season 8 of the original “Beverly Hills 90210″ from Netflix!

5.  The “Little Monkeys Jumping on the Bed” song is much, much funnier when sung through a paper towel tube.

6.  When it’s 9 degrees outside in the middle of the night and your dogs start barking like crazy, take a little time to fully rouse yourself from your slumber.  Don’t muddleheadedly run outside in shorts and a tank top!  It’s a very rude awakening.  Literally.

7.  OMG!  I am, like, totally the coolest adult my little sister-in-law knows. 

8.  My little sister-in-law needs to get out more. A LOT more!

9.  I don’t like being referred to as an “adult”, even if it’s preceded by the world cool.  Come on, everybody knows there’s no such thing as a cool adult! 

10.  As much as I dislike being called an adult, I dislike it even more when I tell someone that I’ve been married for almost 6 years, and they ask if I’m 19 or 20.  I have a feeling that Seth Meyers and Amy Poehler could do a pretty good “REALLY!?” segment about this.  (For the Rednecks reading this, that would be “Saturday Night Live’s” version of “Here’s Your Sign”).   And by the way, my husband is not that much of a pervert! :)
