This state breeds some of the most arrogant soccer moms around. Seen last night:
The Hummer in front of us...colour of money-green, with two bumper stickers on the back window:
"I already don't support the NEXT war"
"Simplify"
The topper? When it rolled into the parking lot, pulled into a handicapped spot and expelled a SHE of the Coach carrying, stilleto wearing, fresh-blown-out, $50,000 of plastic features variety.
Ummm...say what now???

...ways in which to confuse...
Remember when Mister Man started to read? I do! I do! :)
Well let's just say his appetite for reading material is increasing by the minute. From street signs to cereal boxes to salvage user manuals I just found while unpacking, he's gone full throttle reading machine! Awesome!
So we're now at the library twice a week...with two full bags! He's already finished the summer reading challenge and the pile of books in his little fort is increasing exponentially.
Okay, Mami-brag over! I swear!
The point of this post was to remind you of an old, dear, forgotten friend...
The kooky queen of literal confusion herself...Miss Amelia Bedelia!
I stumbled upon the collection at the Warren Public Library just the other day and HAD to bring them home. Mister Man and I spent a good hour curled up on the couch that night giggling away while Amelia 'steak'ed those beans and 'dust'ed that house!
He's hooked, I'm rehooked...and I'm seriously contemplating sending a few to my friend Katharina who is teaching English in Germany. Can't you just imagine her students' reactions to this crazy convoluted language we speak?!?
