A couple of my favorite cartoon skits EVARRR!!!!

Back in the day, I worked for the big "We Be Toys" chain... and during our over night shift work, we tolerated lots of piped in kids music... lots of it was lullaby stuff that would put you to sleep, but we really appreciated the up beat stuff that would help keep us awake like the Animaniacs... I with my geek nature had a fondness for the following that actually taught you something...

United States Capitals by Wacko Warrner [Animaniacs]

Nations of the World by Yakko Warrner [Animaniacs]

Presidents of the United States [Animaniacs] *stops at Clinton*

To this day, Kahunah catches me humming Nations of the World to remember my capitals to answer a Trivia question...

oh... and I almost forgot...

Back in the hospital again... Pint size had am episode of respitory distress... So we are back at the ER... What a day...

Can You use Happy and Hospital in the same sentence?

Ah, my little munchkin is finally checked into Children's Hospital under non-emergency status while happily smiling at mommy and daddy... This shot of him is just before they gave him the goofy juice, and yes he put up a fight to get it in him as usual, but boy, did he mellow out afterwards... not comical enough to take videos like I had of Short Stuff, but to watch my litter pooter just be amazed, laid back and smiling at the ceiling was pretty cool...

The surgery went well... the doctor said that the fluid that was built up behind his ear drum was like sucking out the consistency of a garden slug. He didn't think that my little angel could hear anything at all... which was supported by my boo's reaction to me singing to him in recovery... he just tilted his head and looked at my eyes and mouth and touched my face... it just made me cry... you would think that his speech therapist at school would have noticed this... or his doctor would have picked up on this sooner... I have already made the necessary phone calls to change his school... I will blog about the 'final straw' that drove me to this decision later..

But in the mean time, know that my boo is resting comfortably on baby loretabs... and snores just a fraction of his previous capability...

I am so tickled that my baby can hear me...

Interstellar Crime?

Apparently the Klingon economy suffers just as bad as ours...

What to do...

Short Stuff is officially corrupted by homework-haters society... my little first grader has come home for the past week and a half insisting that he has not had homework while Kahuna and I suspiciously questioned, 'are you sure?'...

we listened to stories of, the teacher is busy, the teacher's cat is sick... you can't call the teacher to check cause the teacher's cat is bad and will bite her (last night's excuse)... and we told our little man that parent teacher conferences were coming up, and that we were going to see the teacher. Our little first grader panicked and asked if we knew where his teacher lived.

Yes, we had our suspicions... yes, we let him get himself into this mess... but, it is best that he learn to deal with the consequences of his actions now than later...

As I type this, Kahuna is taking the first shift of homework duty. No Television, No Video Games, No Snacks... Just Homework and Reading until it is caught up... and then the time for the crime...

any suggestions?

Too Cute...

LOL... My napping baby turns 39 tomorrow. Isn't he cute...

my little lover boy

too cute for words... yes... I have resorted to posting just photos lately... I have settled into a case of the blah's... in the myriad of surgeries, sickness and mishaps, I am just not in the mood to journal...

hopefully the prime time lineup will give me a pleasant distraction tonight... go heroes! and 3D chuck!!!!

now, i am off to replace the rear window of the expedition... sucks to be us right now... did i mention that i have the strep...
