Saturday Night Ramblings

I am 2 weeks behind on Amazing Race. I just put the first tape in, and after not even 15 minutes, I decided to turn it off because Rob and Amber were getting on my nerves. ARGH, I cannot stand those two. Margo on the other hand loves them, and yes, everyone is there for the money and not to make friends, so I can see the point of being devious, but on the other hand, there is something about him that just screams "grade school/high school bully/secret torturer/sicko. And Amber, well, not gonna waste my breath.
So, not much to report today. Got up early with the kids and I snoozed as they watche Blue's Clues and Dora, and apparently, next weekend, Dora will become a big sister! You can tell I don't get out much....
Took the kids shopping for a bit. Went to Zellers and found all this cool Dora stuff for the girls, but didn't buy them - raincoats, sandals, etc. Kim threw a huge hissyfit in the store and so we left for a while. Went for a drive and tried to calm her down. She was just freaking. God, it was stressful. Then we went to the bookstore, and I bought the girls a new Blue's Clues book, and, lo and behold, a book about Dora being a big sister, and a new copy of Your Pregnancy Week by Week, since I can't find the old one. I loved reading that book.
Came home from shopping and one of the girl's cousins came over and they all watched a Scooby Doo movie. Did I mention that Keryn is a Scooby freak? It's really bad. I bought season one and two of Scooby, and she got hooked and addicted to it. Now she has a couple of movies too, and could honestly watch it 8 hours a day if we let her. And while it used to scare the living shit out of me as a kid, she loves it. She always recites these lines and stuff and turned to me in the kitchen one day and said "YIKES, THERE REALLY IS A HEADLESS SPECTRE!" and I was all "huh?" and she says "that's what Velma Dinkly says!" Ahhh, she is so damn cute... they are the one thing I did right.
I am honestly so fat right now I seriously feel like a Weeble. I am so uncomfortable, and for some reason, I ate two fucking meals of fast food today. I am serious - Diet is starting asap. I have this fear I am going to croak on my kids, and that scares the hell out of me, so I have to get myself together. Seriously, I am going to do it yet again. Taunt me if I don't.... I feel like Homer Simpson when he got really fat and wore the muu-muu's.
Not sure what we will do tomorrow. Might work on some projects around the house. The weekends go too fast. I might take Wednesday off, and perhaps Thursday. I was planning on taking Thursday and Monday off, so I'd have this awesome long weekend, but then I realized that I am taking Keryn to her first preschool library storytime hour on Wed. I signed us up so we could do a father/daughter outing, and so she could interact with other kids, and I was gonna just take the hour off of work, but then when I was checking my day planner yesterday, I noticed that I have a dentist appointment on Wed. at 1:30, so I might as well take the whole flippin' day off, don't you think? I also have to go to Saskatoon sometime because I have to use my book allowance from work within the next week. I have like $1100 to spend. I was going to get a laptop, but then thought against it, as this means that it would belong to the university ultimately, so screw it. So I gotta go get books (yay!) sometime so I might do that Thursday afternoon or something. I dunno, I have to figure it out.
You know, it's wierd, because other than Margo, I haven't told anyone else about the blog, even Rachel. I know she'd think it was the stupidest thing, and I am not sure if I want to tell anyone else. I just don't know how I feel about people reading this - hmmmm, I have to think about it.
Just bought some 35% carbamide peroxide on EBAY. The stuff the dentist has is 16%, and it didn't really do much for my teeth, and she doesn't carry the 22%, so I am trying this 35%. I hope it works, as my teeth are hideous. Of course, it's my payback for smoking (but since I quit, can't I get a reprieve?), tea, and coffee.... Anyway, I'll let you know how it works.
Well, I guess I've said all that I can think of at the moment. I think I'll go have a bath and finish my Aususten Borroughs book "Magical Thinking". I'll try to write tomorrow if I get the chance.
Happy Weekend.
