Friday Fragments

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....

• We're in the car and I'm having a moment and singing loudly to Kiss by Prince.  (You know, the song from the Pretty Woman bathtub scene?  Don't judge, you do it too)  M pipes up behind me saying, "Mommy, that girl is singing higher than you."  I laugh and tell her that it's a guy singing.  Dead silence fills the car.  I look into the rear-view mirror to see the most shocked, incredulous look on her face.  She said nothing for almost 5 minutes while she tried to figure that one out.

• I mentioned my eldest in my FF last week.  I talked to him on the phone earlier this week and he actually was upset that I don't talk about him more on my blog.  Go figure.  Teenagers.

• B and I were coming out of the commissary the other day and he was carrying the one bag of groceries.  He makes this "my god this is heavy" sound as he stretches his arm out to me saying "here, your turn."  I looked at him and took the bag.  Now since I packed it, I knew it wasn't heavy.  I was like "Seriously?  This bag is so not heavy Bray."  He laughed at me and told me that "it was a teenage guy thing to act like it's heavy so we'll take the bag back and carry it instead."  I then laughed at him and said "Teenage guy thing?  Shoot boy, that's just a guy thing!"  Like we women don't catch onto that crap.  Duh!

• Last week in my FF I talked about our bunnyrific snails.  Well guess who we found again this week?  Yup, snail #3 has reappeared and is thriving nicely.  (Then again it could just be another new baby snail.  Oh crap!)

• M and K got their dance costumes yesterday.  Luckily, K's both fit nicely.  M on the other hand has a few that need minor alterations.  At least now she mostly fits into the size that's ordered.  If we could just mix and match top and bottom sizes, we'd be golden!  The child has no hips or butt, and everything just falls right off.  Thank goodness my seamstress is just that good and everything will be ready for the performance next weekend!

That's all I've got this week.  Y'all have a great weekend!

Those are funny :) The commissary thing killed me. My kids do that to me all the time. It's cereal for crying out loud! LOL!

Oh yeah...the grocery thing. I hear you on that!!

But then when he wants to boast, he can give me a piggy back ride.

Go figure!

I could just picture your little girl's face in the car :)

Dance-So cute. Enjoy the show!

You could let your son interview you for a post; have you see the Mom Questions? I'd love to read it!

Thanks for playing FF this week :)

Teenagers! Total breed apart from regular humans, and teen boys... heaven help us both.

That fact that she called Prince a girl wouldn't have even occured to me. I just would have been upset that she pointed out someone was hitting a higher note than me.
I would have been, "like whatever".

I can just imagine her face
