i had really hoped to kick the new year off with a blast o' blogs but instead i have barely been breathin' with some bitter bug mini's boyfriend brought all of us as a christmas gift. while in my current sickly state i have never disliked anyone as much as i dislike this boy and therefore don't really feel like defending him, i'm sure he didn't understand about arrivin' in a house full o' holiday cheer 'n goodwill then shortly after enterin' bringin' all the joy to a screechin' halt with a coupla uncovered sneezes. he is all the way jewish after all (we are only half). while half jewish entitles you to the knowledge that once the tree goes up no one is allowed to cough or sneeze or blow a nose in your own home and CERTAINLY not in the home of others, all the way types have to learn this the hard way. if i hadn't worked so long 'n hard to appear to be a kind, lovin', sweet, adorin', selfless mother i would begin plottin' masterful revenge against this tall skinny non-christmas celebratin' faux adult and the plottin' would revolve around makin' sure he was exposed to an equally as horrible yet still temporary illness that would force him to wallow in wadded tissues while all his best buddies board air buses to beautiful beaches with bare breasted babes bearing' bottleneck beers when spring break arrives....but a mother could never do that. mini's daddy says he has no problem attemptin' to get even with the faux adult but only if no one ever found out which of course they would 'cause mini's daddy would decide it would make a good plot for some sitcom and therefore expose himself. so it looks like we will just continue to be heavenly hosts sufferin' not so silently as we hack 'n cough through scaly chapped lips, with barely enough strength to wave as mini's beloved boy bounces down the back stairway with his ski boots under one arm and my baby under the other.
i do so hope YOUR new year is off to a healthier start!
