NaBloPoMo Day 16: Viva Viagra
Noah and I are watching football (actually he’s watching football and I’m sitting here blogging, trying my best to tune out the football) and the Viagra commercial keeps coming on. It’s stuck in my head. Sorry ’bout that. (This should give me some interesting google traffic - maybe I’ll get a bit more for the Viagra and a little less for the survivor nudity.)
I’ve spent most of the last couple days dressed like this. Blurry, ponytail, glasses, sweats, big t-shirt, bath robe, Noah’s slippers.
Yes, those are Noah’s slippers. They used to be mine (he actually got them for me for Christmas last year), but he stole them and claimed them as his own. He doesn’t even let me wear them. But, he wasn’t home when I took this picture.
That’s Full House Season 3 in the background. Erica left it here for me when she visited. Can’t get through a sick day without it.
Lord willing, by tomorrow I’ll be alive and well and doing a little more of this:
Hangin’ with my “triplets”. I didn’t get permission to show the boys’ picture, so they’ve got cute little masks on - thanks Picnik! Liliana’s a little less interested in the photo and a little more interested in the Little Einsteins that I forgot to shut off before snack time.

Okay, I need your help with something.
Christmas. Supposed to be a time of giving, right? So I sarcastically came up with an idea that Noah thought was genius. He makes up this GINORMOUS Christmas list every year, not in the hopes that he’ll get everything on it (because that’s a pipe dream anyway), but to give everyone some variety in what to get him. He’s VERY easy to shop for, that’s for sure. But, you don’t go shopping without the list in hand. It’s punishable by death.
Noah was trying to show me his list last night, and I said that I wasn’t going to shop off of it because I know what I’m getting him and I know he’ll like it. This did not go over well. His face got all scrunched up and he did a little pout.
So, I said, “Do you want me to just give you your budgeted amount and you can shop for yourself?”
His face lit up like a Christmas tree. “Would you?!”
Um, dude. I was kidding.
So help us out. Vote!
Thanks ;)
Are you kidding? Christmas is about the spirit of giving, not an “I want” list. And what kind of a surprise is buying something for yourself? Just give each other the grestest gift in the world, LOVE! Demanding something as a ‘gift’ from eachother doesn’t sound like fun to me. All those in favor, vote!
Thanks little brother!
I voted for the original idea of Christmas, Then I asked a man’s opinion and he agreed with Noah. He would take the money :)

I actually agree with the original list idea…that way it is a surprise and Noah gets what he wants. That was how Ron and I did it…but it also leaves you open to get something else that you know he would want.

That’s funny, I had pink fuzzy slippers and now Jason always wears them. He lets me wear them still he’s not that hardcore! :P Oh and he always watches football on the weekend too!
Hope you are feeling better real soon!
Oh and I don’t think I told you yet… I like you new banner. :)

I’m with you, girl. We make lists, but only to help family members. I don’t expect ANYTHING :)

Missed you at church. (Even though I rarely do get to chat with you while there.) :) And very sorry to hear you’ve been sicko. I hope today went alright with the three little ones. Hope you’re feeling better for Wednesday!
We’re getting a new camera for “Christmas”but will actually purchase it in January. Last year we bought a new computer. We then give each other a set amount of money and that’s what we have to buy some little presents with. I’m a stickler to. Not.One.Penny. Over…the set amount.
