Spam, spam, SPAM

Posted on by

Whilst deleting spam a moment ago, I was saying to myself, “Spam, spam, spam, spam, spam…” etc. So, naturally, me being me, and me deleting A LOT of SPAM made me think: A LOT of SPAM…. A LOT of SPAM…SPAM of which I have A LOT…SPAMALOT!!

Yep. I went there. So, for your Tuesday afternoon (which always makes me sing) delight (wow, I crunched two songs together there in Wheel of Fortune puzzle style) [<--Look-e at how random I'm being today], I present to you one of my favorite Monty Python clips, not actually from Spamalot, but from Monty Python and the Holy Grail:

Thank freakin’ goodness! So, this week has been the first week of big kid school for my little one. Already, I’m getting the “boring” response when I ask how the day went. Already, I’m getting questions about how far away Christmas break is. Oy. It’s gonna be a long school year.

The hubs and I have determined that waking up before the sun breaches the horizion is cruel and unusual. Downright unconstitutional even. *sigh* Oh well. Can’t fight that system, can we?

But overall I think things are going well. My hubby tried to convince me to go buy a couple of cute jogging suits to take the kiddo to school–as I sat in my zombie-esque state on the edge of the bed this morning, grumbling something about “too early.” Oh no, I said, I’m not going to be one of those moms. Plus, once I’m up, I’m up (even if I don’t wanna be…and I really don’t wanna :( ).

But I must say, I’m ready for sleep-in-Saturday and some family time. I’m sure I’ll get used to this being by myself during the day and being away from my baby, but I’m not quite there yet.

So, usually, I hate covers. And by hate, I really mean passionately hate. However, there are a few covers out there that are amazing.

Here’s Ingrid Michaelson’s version of Can’t Help Falling In Love:
