This Is Your Brain On Crack
I have so many things rattling around in my brain right now that I can’t put together a cohesive thought. What’s new with that you ask? Well, first I say “bite me” and second I say “my brain is on overload, as opposed to being on underload, which is usually the case.” Again…bite me.
In an effort to share with you the itty bitty random-itty things rattling around up there, I present you with a bullet post. You. Are. Welcome.
- Dylan broke my sunglasses today. Little bastard.
- I’ve spent a good part of my day writing emails to companies (should that be “company’s”? I can’t figure it out) asking for them to give me free stuff to give away on AllMediocre. No one has responded yet. Bastards. As if they have something better to do than to write me back ASAP that they’d LOVE to give me free stuff. What-ever.
- Dear aforementioned comapnies (company’s): I’m just kidding. I totally love you. Take all the time you need. But be quick about it, please. I have no patience.
- Speaking of free stuff: I REALLY want a new camera. Sony-listen up. You gave 14 lovely “mommy bloggers” a trip to San Diego and THREE free cameras. What’s one more camera for little ole me? Email me at meghan(at)amomtwoboys(dot)com for my shipping address. KThanks.
- Nikon-Sony neglected to include me! Don’t you want to be the Knight in Shining Armor to come to my camera rescue? Again…email me at the address above for my shipping address. KThanks.
- Canon- see above & above that. KThanks.
- I lowered Zach’s crib mattress today. It’s something I’ve been meaning to do for a while, but kept putting off. I finally did it and, I kid you not, as I was finishing up he did this:
-
I was trying to clean today and the aforementioned baby was driving me nuts. My solution? First, I stuck him in his exersaucer OUTSIDE with his brother. Don’t get all uppity with me, he was in the shade and was 3 feet from the open door. After that stopped working? Wooden Spoon. Perfect choice. Kept him occupied and happy. The photographic evidence, once again shot with my 4 year old KODAK point & shoot (GOOOOO Kodak!):

-
I really wish Zach would smile more. His crappy attitude and constant frown are really starting to get me down. You see what I mean?

Good timing on my part, no?
*shot with my 4 year old Kodak Point & Shoot. GOOOO KODAK!

-
That photo was ALSO shot with my 4 year old Kodak Point & Shoot. GOOOOO KODAK!
-
Is that getting old yet? Because until I get a new camera, I’m going to do that with EVERY picture I put up.
-
I suggest you start a petition to distribute and send to some other camera makers (see above). It’s up to them to get me to stop that annoying little camera plug. It’s in your hands now, dear readers.
-
Grandma Nancy is (hopefully) coming into town this weekend! And she’s bringing Grandpa Dick! So yay! Dylan is hopeful that Buddy is coming as well. So is Tahoe.
-
In anticipation of their visit, I bought good wine. A whopping $13.00 bottle, which pretty much doubles what I would normally spend. A classy, high-roller I am!
-
Sadly, I spent $8.00 on a GLASS of the same wine last time we were out to dinner. NOT a good deal on my part.
-
I’m working on putting together a post I’m calling “The This Post” which is going to BLOW your minds.
-
(0) (0) VAGINA

Ooh! I lurve your new site! And I can totally understand about Zach—he looks totally unhappy and unloved. Brat.
And I must admit, I love my new Nikon.

$13 bottlie of wine – Yippee!
No, Buddy’s not coming. Sorry (but not as sorry as he is!)
Maybe if you took even more pictures your Kodak Point & Shoot
would die and you’d HAVE to get a new camera…. I’m just saying.

Whatever, smartass. Bring your FOURTEEN dollar bottle and try to show me up.
And good idea about the camera. When you’re here you can be my model. I’ll take LOTS of pictures of you in various poses. Not necessarily with little boys included. Sound good?

LOL – when you first mentioned ‘wooden spoon’ I thought you were wielding it. And I hear you on the camera front – I’ve got a Kodak which sucks for anything long distance. Must get job in fall.

You are so funny. And, I just moved my little one’s mattress down too. My timing was not so good though, he had already pulled up and tried to fall out.
Hey, did you see that Absolutely Bananas listed allmediocre as a networking site on Seattle Mom Blogs in her latest post?? You still rock.

I love random bullet lists…they are grand!
And your bullet list had me giggling. I’m with you on the wanting a free camera…although right now I’d settle for a free lens since the one that came with my camera (that had my hubby gagging over the price) isn’t the best. I got no zoom power *G* So if one of them contacts you, ask them for some extra lenses too *lol*
And I’m with Sassy Pantss…you should end every post with vagina. You’ll get some great google searches off of that

and hey, i want a new camera too…maybe our, cross that out (you are doing fine on your own!)…MY…numbers would go up if my pictures were better…hmmmmm.
have you checked with etsy businesses?? i would think that some of them would be more willing to get their names out there. do you need any help with that? as soon as my summer break starts…i’ll have a little more time on my hands. let me know if you need anything. i would be willing to donate my (ha ha) talents that i’m hoping will launch my etsy idea/business…but i haven’t decided if i should try it yet. argh. maybe i’ll post some pictures on my site and ask for opinions.

Ok, my first official comment and I already hate you. That kid? NO WAY! He must be the cutest thing since mine was that age. (Almost) Makes my ovaries hurt.
You and I must drink the same wine. However a trip to Costco yesterday confirmed that they no longer carry my favorite cheap wine. Bastards.
I blogged AllMediocre yesterday but some how couldn’t leave a comment. I suck, but hopefully will send some traffic anyway. Let’s see if it comes up with CommentLuv…

And for the record a grandmother who says, “just sayin’” I LOVE it! I’ll be back to stalk you again! oh and get some good stuff for ALLmediocre I love me some free stuff! I sent you an email and clearly you’ve been too busy getting free stuff and taking pictures with your crappy ass camera!

Hey I was contacted by a company representing Huggies. They wanted to give me a swim diaper “kit” for my baby and one to giveaway on my blog. But they won’t ship to a P.O. box. I have the info if you’re interested. I know, it’s not a camera. But a giveaway is a giveaway.

It’s companies, not company’s, maybe that is why they are not responding. Geesh. Companies would be plural. Company’s would be referring to something the company possesses – like greed and short-sightedness, for instance.
I am tired after reading this, but I want to know what wine you buy and can tolerate for $7/bottle.

Hold out for a Canon. I loooooooove my Rebel. Got it on a rec from my brother who is uber picky. His is totally pimped, but even my out-of-the-box version is fabulous.
I definitely hope you get some stuff for All Mediocre. I have to thank you for that site because since I’ve registered, my blog is getting traffic–whoo-hoo (and The Hubs had quite a laugh when, the very moment he walked through the door, I announced to him that people are actually READING me!). You are bloggerific!

Did YOU get a camera?
You know how after you type something a million times it seems wrong ? Well, the day I wrote that post I’d written about a thousand emails begging for loot for an AllMediocre Giveaway…and I’d typed “company’s” approx 4,567 times and it just started to confuse me. A glass or two of wine and it was all sorted out in my brain. Kind of.
Good thinking on the linking…see? Stuff like that doesn’t even occur to me. Duh.

Meghan on 30 May 2008 at 11:44 am #
I know, I know…as I said to Jennifer above…it was one of those instances where I’d used the word SO much that day, it just started to look wrong. You know what I’m saying? Like if you type (or write or say) the name “ED” too much it doesn’t even sound like a name anymore…or is that just me?
And the $7.00 bottle? It’s all about what’s on sale, or what’s at Trader Joe’s. I love me some Albertson’s Club Card savings. Like when I got a $24.00 bottle of Estancia Reserve Chardonnay for $12.00. AWESOME.

OK, I was all, why isn’t she posting? Til I realized my feed was all wrong and my google reader wasn’t telling me you had a new post and I was a big idiot. And then? Then? I saw all those adorable pics of Zach and I just about died. Because your little boy? Is just too cute.

Wow, your kitchen floor looks so, so clean…
(I can tell even though you used a – gasp – four year old camera)
I am obsessed because right now mine is sticky with play doh.
Zach is such a cutie, he looks like he gets a lot of love!

If you came and visited me I would be willing to spring for a $14 bottle. I know! I know! Worth the $500 plane ride?
I have been having camera thoughts too. I am almost thinking I need something with those fancy lens…just hit me in the head because I will never want to LUG it around. I love that my SONY fits into the tiniest pocket. MWAH Sony. Mommybloggers love you SONY (would it be wrong to try to get in on YOUR trip?) Oh SONY, I already have the camera so it would be just the trip price for me…
