Friday Fragments are bits and pieces of your week that are usually
brief; too short for a stand-alone post, but too good to discard.
Collect humorous observations, "Heard" items, and other small gems and
put them together in a Friday Fragments post. Here we go....
- Last week I was accosted by a lovely child at the dance studio who held in her hands the most sinful thing ever created. Of course I had to buy some. I mean, it was for a good cause right? Somehow, even after buying 2 I still managed to lose 3+ pounds. What is this yummy yet sinful object? Behold:
Someone kill me now. (And you so know you're right there with me on these bars-even if Almond isn't your poison!)
- I'm talking to D last night on the phone and he's going on and on about some new video card he just purchased. Blah, blah, blah. All of a sudden he starts squeaking in a high pitched voice about 1620 something resolution and then shrieks "nerdgasm". Funniest thing I'd heard all week. Bout dang near wrecked the car.
- Look who is on this year's cheer camp flyer. I even circled her again for your ease in locating. :)
If you don't know, that's my eldest daughter, M. Yup, she was a Jr. Redskins cheerleader for 2 years. She's talking about trying out again this year. We'll see.
- Speaking of M, she auditioned for this year's Ballet Theatre production of Nutcracker. You'd have thought I would have learned my lesson after last year's December from Hell but nope, I'm a glutton for punishment! She's been offered 2 parts already and can audition for more in the Fall. This year she'll be a mouse and a fairy. I'm not certain right now if she'll want to audition for more parts, but we're discussing it.
- And because I just can't stop talking about her this week, M has her first dance studio performance this weekend. It'll be the first time we as parents get to watch them do their routines, so I'm totally excited!
- This week I've fallen for this adorably cute song by Taylor Swift. I totally don't do the country music scene (unless I'm channelling my inner Southern girl), but I can't get this song out of my head. The video was just released and it speaks volumes to me, seeing as I was a band geek who had a really close guy friend. Plus it's got that cutie Lucas Till from the Hannah Montana movie we saw last weekend (hey, don't judge I have a 7 yr. old who was dying to see it). :)
- To make up for the frightening display of wording admitting my viewing of the Hannah Montana movie, I did see X-Men Origins: Wolverine on Sunday. LOVED IT!!!! Mr. Smoochiefrog saw it too and dang it if he didn't have the 2nd ending! Luckily we were able to dish about the differences. (If you didn't know, there are 2 different endings shown after the final credits. See staying until the crowds thin out has it's advantages)
- Baby snail count for this week: 4 with a solitary sighting of a 5th. *Le Sigh*
That's all I've got this week. Y'all have a great weekend!

I'm not that into country either, but enjoy Taylor Swift. How cool for M to be on the flyer for cheerleading camp! :)
Dance recitals are so fun,we have one coming up the first of June around here.
Have a great weekend/happy mother's day!

I love how they put the cute pictures of the little girls right next to the skantily-clad cheerleaders. Oh, and when I first saw "learn fun pom routines" I thought the "m" in pom was actually 2 letters...
Oh, and nothing wrong with a little Hannah Montana.
