Gotcha - with your pants down

Well, it has happened again. A politician has been caught with a hooker. It's not really that shocking anymore. Old white men holding a press conference to attone for their sins. I'm sorry. I won't do it again.... translation I'm pissed I was stupid and got caught. It happens now, a lot.

My problem is that I don't understand the political wife. The Hillary Clintons, Wendy Vitters and Silda Spitzers of the world confuse me. Your husband has admitted to the public that he has had an affair with a prostitute/intern and you show up at the press conference with this man. Standing there, beautifully dressed, perfectly coiffed wearing your triple strand of pearls.

What the F#@k is wrong with these women. Maybe I'm just not that nice. If I were one of these women I don't think that attending my husband's "I'm so sorry, (Jimmy Swaggert) I have sinned" press conference is part of my duties as a wife. Working with a therapist, family and couples counseling, absoutely. Standing next to him looking like a sad puppy. Hell, NO!. He got himself into that mess. He didn't need me then. He won't need me now, in front of the cameras.

Honestly, the press and 99% of the American women would love me. Everytime he says "I'm sorry", I am quite sure I would smirk and roll my eyes. Followed by an under the breath "yeah, right" and an occasional "bullshit".

I don't expect my politicians to be 10 feet tall and bulletproof. They are human and make mistakes. I am not here to judge them. The public embarrassment and pain they cause their famlies is enough for me.

I just feel that anyone entrusted with making important decisions for the Cities, States and Federal Government should not be recklessly STOOOOOPID!

Project Runway

I loved this season of Project Runway. If you didn't see it then you really missed out. The designers were great. They were entertaining, but I like to see what they would design. Some of the things were fantastic... or fierce.

I can't wait for next season.

Momnesia

Recently I read where Moms of young children have been noticing that their memory is "fuzzy". They will walk into a room and forget why. They will drive to a store and not know why. I thought it was just lack of sleep. Maybe the Hannah Montana Marathon has fried our last functioning brain cell left over from college.

I am beginning to wonder if there are not subbliminal messages in the annoying tunes of Dan Zane's House Party. You think he's a funny Kramer-esque guitar playing guy, but he is really using music to control your mind. You think it's a kids song, but the message that lands in your brain says "Yes, your child needs another Barbie" and "we know it costs more, but our Mac and Cheese is cheesier".

Now, I need to go to the store and pick up some things... that I can't remember.

Massive Barbie Wedding

Right now in my backyard preparations are underway for a massive Barbie Wedding. The plastic cake and plastic flowers are outside in the grass. Along with 15 of our 32 Barbies, including the two "man barbies".

My question to the "preacher leader person" was how do all these Barbies get married if there are only two man barbies. Easy answer - The other man barbies are invisible. How convenient is that. All from the minds of 7 year olds.

OMG - Oxford, MS

I have a new fav. It's the Daily Mississippian Online. The Ole Miss Online News. www.thedmonline.com. There is now a webiste www.hauteytoddy.blogspot.com. It's hysterically funny.

Meghan gives you her opinion of all things Fashion at Ole Miss and beyond. Srsly. Yes, she uses abrev. of certain words and phrases that at times are srsly silly. But funny, sometimes, beatch.

She has opinions about what you should wear to a tailgate, ball game, class on cold days, class on warm days, to a Memphis Hotel on Valentines Day, to the clinic when you are sick and to Wal Mart. OMG she was Srsly pissed when the LSU Pimps dropped their tent in the grove complete with a Stripper Pole. LOL. Srsly. Now that's funny.

She's snooty and thinks a lot of herself. I don't know where life will take her, but I can only hope that it will include a trans-Atlantic flight in coach seated next to a 2 year old (dressed in a Juicy Baby velour sweatsuit) with a head cold and in front of a high school ADHD class trip to France.

And remember, neon is in, sheer is only ok for a size two and no flip flops in the winter, y'allz.

It's already starting.

Today my Terminex guy asked if we had LSU Football Tickets. (He noticed the flag on the fence.) I told him yes. He asked if we were going to be using the ones on October 25th, the Georgia game. I laughed. I told him that our family has 6 tickets and 6 adults and I am quite sure that unless my husband is in Iraq or we are 2 minutes from death, we will all be there.

It's 8 months until the game and Georgia fans are already looking for tickets.

Mom on Strike

Someone throw this woman a life vest or a brain. There is a 33 year old mother of 4 boys in Ocala, Florida who was arrested for neglecting her boys ages 17, 16, 13 and 12. She was tired of picking up after them. She tried to get the court system to put them in jail. She finally moved out and left them to live in the mess that they made.

Listen to this, she would spend one night a week at the house and go over at night when she got off work to make sure they were in bed.

I guess this should be a lesson on why you don't start having children when you are 16 years old.
