I Enjoy Being a Girl

OK, so I don't always.  Why are we so moody?  High-strung?  Crazy?  I believe it has to do with the amount of products that you use.  Follow me.  Girls use a lot of different products.  For each body part there are at least two that must be used.  And hair is one that can make you go off the charts.  I think bad hair days are also the cause of many moody, high-strung days.  The following is just an example:

Hair - shampoo, conditioner, smoothing cream, serum, hairspray
on non-high maintenance days I will use 2 in 1 and mousse and hairspray.

Face - face soap, eye make up remover, toner, eye cream, moisturizer and then onto make up

Body - regular soap, froofy soap, shaving cream in some parts, shaving gel in others, shea butter for some parts, lotion for others

This isn't even getting into technicalities such as toes and fingers and eyebrows and all of the stuff in between.  I tend to neglect those things at time, but then again, I'm usually stressed out and unable to relax.

Maybe that is the remedy to it all.  Take time to take care of yourself where you can take care of others.  For once I should probably follow my own advice.  Instead of getting bitter about it, I should embrace it and love it.  But I can't do that until I feel good.  Hmmm, I like it when I answer my own questions :)

Excuse me, there is a fly in my soup....

Random things that end up in my mouth:

Bugs - I don't know how I always manage to get bugs in my mouth.  There is no telling how many bugs I have actually eaten.  And I don't mean little noseeums.  I mean moths, ants, flies, big things, that know better.  Yet they fly in my mouth anyway.  Gross.

Hair - last night I had a strand of hair hanging down my throat.  It made me gag.  I couldn't reach it.  I tried all kinds of throat clearing noises.  They both just made me gag worse. 

Writing instruments - and it doesn't matter where it comes from. I catch myself doing it and I get really really really nauseated.  You just don't know what others have done to them. 

Brad stuff - usually whatever he has in his mouth at the time I decide to take it away from him :)

Things I don't put in my mouth:

Gum - I'm not a fan.

Other people's fingers - you don't know where they have been

Other people's gum - doubly gross


What kind of things do you have going on with your mouth????

Betty Crocker meets Bettie Page

Is it weird that I want to be a Domestic Goddess/Diva/Porn Star?  I spend my day dreaming of not having to work.  In my dreams, I'm wearing frilly nighties and high heeled feathered slippers and making my husband breakfast before heading off to work.  My kids will rise and shine each day and romp off to school with a smile on their face.  Then I will head to the gym to keep my gorgeous body in shape (I did say this was a dream).  After the gym, I will send my sweet husband naughty pictures while I shower.  I spend the afternoon cleaning my already spotless house because everyone picks up after themselves so nicely.  I begin a scrumptious supper and greet my dear husband at the door with his 7&7 while wearing something sexy.  After all of the usual evening activities and the kids scamper off to bed, I perform my wifely duties and fall asleep in his arms..... And do it all over again the next day.

This is my dream.  And one day I shall have it.  I think Brad would like it too!
