Flicking Boogers

DISCLAIMER: I did not title this entry, nor will I explain it!!!

Have you ever tried to explain the definition of "rubber necking" to a kid??  Just curious.  Ha ha!!

I had forgotten how unbelievably pleasant people (please read this knowing my sarcasm) are in Mo County.  Especially, during the holiday season.  Good golly Miss Molly.  I'm certainly not in South Carolina!!  I actually had a woman bang on the windshield of my car, while I was in a parking space.  She asked me to move my vehicle, so she could fit into her car with all her packages.  Now, I wasn't opposed to moving my car.  However, I was in between the lines...and damn, couldn't she have knocked on my window and asked nicely??!!!  Apparently, I didn't move quickly enough for her.  She sort of threw her door open dramatically and climbed into her car as if she was suffocating.  I couldn't help but laugh....oh and I wished her a Merry Christmas of course!

I've finished all my shopping and decided to start wrapping gifts today.  Ellie and I were alone when I started.  My sister should have warned me though....Ellie is going to tell all before Christmas gets here!  She's worse at keeping secrets, than I am!  You can see, it is itching inside of her to tell everyone what their getting from Aunt Rene. 

Bowling hasn't been going well for the beau.  He's thinking about hanging those bowling shoes up.  His behavior is actually very comical when he isn't doing well. I have to cover my face, so he doesn't see me chuckling.  I'm thankful ( as he is too) that the league is off for the next three weeks.  I think the break is going to be good for him.

Sunday it was unbelievably cold and windy. I met The Browning Five and Tita and Uncle Al at Tyson's Corner for a late lunch and a movie.  OK, it was such a late lunch....ummmmmm I missedit!  Ha ha.  We saw Alvin and The Chipmunk's. It provided all the kids with great laughs...and that's so contagious, I couldn't help but laugh too.

Did I mention that my haircut looks great??!! Even though, I was asked to grow it out long...seriously I couldn't stand it anymore and butchered the back again.  I wasn't made for long hair.  I don't have that kind of patience. Sorry Stephen!!  :)

Stephen and I had Italian subs from Twinbrook deli, again.
