Special Word of the Day: PRETEND

Today was oober interesting... well as interesting as sitting in a room that is getting filled with paint fumes can get. I woke up and was forced against my will to take Wacey to the dentist to get 1, not 2 nor 3 nor 4 but only 1 tooth pulled, the reas
on I make a big deal about this is because I have to take him back tomorrow (waste more time) to the dentist! What at numbskull! But anyways...

After, I was named the project manager of our house restoration, other wise known as" the-person-suckered-into

-sitting-at-home-and-making-sure-the-painters-get-the-job-done." Literally watching paint dry. Apparently this was important because the painters have not shown up for the past 2 days, and only returned after mom bear sent poppa bear after the gyppers! Yup, one more reason my mom stresses the importance of having a man around, I think it falls right behind the one about needing to open tight jars... I think.

So I basically sat around from 8am till 430 pm watching and waiting, getting high of the fumes and reorganizing and ripping my ipod music my itunes on to my NEW MAC BOOK PRO 13.3 with upgraded memory. A task that entailed 30 minutes on the phone with an I.T guy named Maurice (whom I am sur

e his name was not really Maurice, I guess pretending to be Maurice really turned him on?), 10£, and hours of looking up the birth-given names of country, pop, dance, electronic, rock and indie rock music! Can I say KTNN?!

After being locked in the room with my computer and lots of Shakira I convinced Wacey to go on a run... and swayed him to run a marathon with me ... what a sucker. Then my mother Anita came home. She wanted to shop... surprise surprise!!!

We ended up going to Sam's club and got our cart at 8:29 and entered and the lady at the door says you have 1 minute... what a DUMBASS! Who lets people get all settled in their

cart and enter the store with 1 minute to shop... what does it look like we're on SUPER MARKET SWEEP?! The nerve... she has some real MOXY! So then we meandered on to Bed, Bath and Beyond, and after 1/2 an hour of complaining we left with a 9 dollar water bottle and a 12 dollar bottle of ZERO ODOR. We then entered Borders books. This was interesting because at this point Anita and I were both tired and trying to push each others "BIG RED DO NOT PUSH" buttons: there were comments about mother's chest hair, belly button lint, and putting duct tape on each others mustaches.

The fun really began when my mom told me to buy a pricey CD. I put it back after peeking at the price but my mom insisted she would purchase it... so I picked it back up... then she said she would get me the med

iocre CD for my birthday. I said "I DON'T WANT THAN FOR MY BIRTHDAY!!!! " And then I placed it back down. She then went on to say, It's okay we can PRETEND our birthday is tomorrow! Ughh typical mo

m.

Then after I mocked my mom for looking at a hordacultre book for 10 minutes we checked out. The poor guy at the desk listened and probably listened to us

bicker like an old married couple, then asked me if I went

to MNT. POINTE high school. I told him I did, then he asked my year, i said 07'. Coincidently, it was the same year as him, but stupid me didn't remember him. But my mom apparently did... only after looking at his name tag! She

pretended to be in a complete stupor because didn't e I remember him, Yelling "I can't believe you don't remember SHANE..." ***KEEP in mind she really didn't know Shane. He was immediately delighted by my mom's acting and I was immediately a DUMBASS!

The moral of today: Life is better if you just pretend. Like Maurice and my mother.
