Say Anything.

'Say Anything' is a John Cusak/Cameron Crowe 1989 teen flick. ' A noble underachiever and a beautiful valedictorian fall in love the summer before she goes off to college.' This is actually not what this thread is about, but the message is the same.

Actually no it isn't, I just like imdb.com and the title sounded interesting. /snort

This is not necessarily a vent thread - far from it. This is about saying anything - weather, the bird outside your work window, the fundamental differences between Mormons and catholics, how Law and Order Criminal Intent doesn't get the props it deserves, that I always forget whether it's 'it's' or 'its', that my daughter has a beautiful smile and the first guy that breaks her heart - I'm breaking his knees...it's about anything.

So, say anything.

So we asked her a couple times, 'Potty?!' and she happily pranced to the door but upon opening the door to the backyard, Shadow saw the fence and became confused.

Hour 12. Still no poop.


Sounds like you broke her comfort zone with the bathroom.

We did the same thing when we erected a wire shelf above the litter box, the cats were all freaked to go, then they started lying in the box before they realized "oh hey it's the bathroom" and used it for that instead.

Here's to functional poo!

After posting my not exactly excited diatribe about 'Women's Murder Club' I went over to the tv and decided to DVR it (again, I really like Angie Harmon, I'll give it a shot). The tv is showing Family Guy to which Mike turns around and starts watching from his computer. I look at him and turn it off, because it's halfway thru and we'll watch it later from the beginning (I hate commercials) and he says...

'What's wrong?'
I stand up and walk over to him. 'What's wrong? I'll show you what's wrong.'

I lift up my shirt and expose my rather large and hard tummy.
Mike double takes and then goes back to playing COH. Catherine walks over and says, 'What's wrong?' and I show her my tummy. She walks up and puts her hands my stomach and says in her typical innocent Catherine voice.

'Mommy can you show me how you would stop, drop and roll?'

Both Mike and I are like, 'What?' and bust out laughing. These crazy kids!

we had a dog once who had to pee/poop on grass. she would litterally stand and whine and shake she had to pee so bad but if there was no grass to be seen she couldnt do it.

We live in the desert.. phoenix arizona.. We once took a road trip north to idaho, up through az and nevada and utah.. we had to take some astro turf so she would have "grass" on the trip..


she was also terrified of tile and linoleum flooring ( anything smooth she might slide across when being chased by cats a tenth her size) ...some tough Pit Bull..

Hour 19. Pooped in the kitchen.

I come downstairs. 'Did she poop?'
Glares at me, 'Oh yeah, she pooped.'
'In the kitchen?'
'In the kitchen.'

It's tile floor so it's easier to clean up, but he took the poop and threw it on the patio for her to see that it was ok. Hopefully she gets it today. =(

Poor puppy indeed.. =/

And wow.. your man cleans that up? Around my house I can be _gone_ and that part of the house is just closed off until I get home and have to do it *sigh*

Oh no, Mike is obsessive now about cleaning. He even started cooking - I don't know what alien race kidnapped my husband, implanted him with OCD cleaning issues, but I'd like to thank them with a nice casserole.

hahahahaha! When you find out, get their number and I'll see how much it'd cost to do the same with mine. You'd think after almost 16 years I'd be used to getting zero help around the house most of the time. *sigh*

During our manager meeting on tuesday one of the phlebs came up and said, 'there's human feces all over the bathroom.' Needless to say I was suddenly very glad that I was a manager. The lab manager told the girl to clean it up. /shudder I hate the medical field, I'm glad I work on the outskirts of it and don't have to deal with people's pewp.

Two weeks ago, Mom cooking dinner, after asking me for help: "Mike, stop standing in the kitchen doorway like a statue, go sit the fuck down, I'll call you in fifteen minutes when everything's ready"

Tonight, Mom cooking dinner, after asking me for help: Mike goes to sit down after seeing 15 minutes remaining on the timer, saying "call me when you need me". Mom neglects to call me back and ask for help and instead "I'll get everything, that's okay, even though I asked you lazy fuckers for help, I'll get fucking everything"


Of course, I'm the one that was wrong.

I might be moving in with my mother in law with my kids over the next 4-8 weeks.. and have to pack up my current house in the next two, *cries*

..and yeah, I dont think I've ever heard my mom say the "F-word" haha.
Den 18 years ago
lol I'd die if my mom ever once said 'fuck'. Even when I say it around her, I only mouth it...
Now with my own daughter, it's a totally different story, but I've never once directed it 'at' her.
Lessa 18 years ago

ROzbeans 18 years ago
Yeah the new sig is freaking me out a little, I just wish I could have put the bubble bean up in my avatar but it won't take the code that way =(
