Happy New year, Birthplace! →
I was born in Bangkok. No, I am not Asian. My dad was in the Air Force and was stationed there. We left for assignment at the Pentagon when I was six weeks old, but someday I’d love to go to Thailand and visit the city of my birth. I have a friend who lives there and has invited me to visit any time, but I have not the means to make it happen. *sigh*
What a smart kid!
After banging on the screen door and screaming "Nanny Kate!" like I was his version of a rock star and running into my arms, my three-year-old nephew Colin and I had the following convo:
Colin: Nanny Kate, you shirt is beautiful!
Me: Why thank you, Colin!
Colin: You're so pretty, Nanny Kate!
Me: Will you marry me?
Run!

Living in Lafayette, Louisiana, I know not one Jew. Well, I take that back. What I mean to say is, I do know some Jews, but none that actually live in Lafayette. I do know one family that is “sorta Jewish” here in Lafayette, meaning the dad isJewish, but the mom isn’t, the family attends a Methodist church, and sends the kids to Catholic school. But I digress.
I am aware...

Extreme Home Makeover- Organ Donor Episode →
Good night, Irene! I bawl like a two-year-old every time I watch Extreme Home Makeover, but tonight, I was innocently watching Trading Spouses on CMT (and let me just be clear, DO NOT watch CMT ever!) and there came the re-run of the episode to end all episodes of Extreme Home Makeover. Have you SEEN this? Christ on a cracker, if you didn’t cry during this, you must be Satan...

Oh my! Can’t wait to try this place. Although, at those menu prices it will have to wait for the next “special” event- my birthday in June.

Who Has The Worst Accent On True Blood? →
Uh, ALL of them. F**k, I hate this show. But what I hate more is that it is one of the only TV shows my husband will acually watch. Granted he seems to hover somewhere between intrigued and mortified. He just can’t look away.
The fact that this s**t was picked up for another season is evidence that evil is lurking the hallways of HBO.

True Love
I walk in with the great announcement:
Me: Guess who got another 4.0?
Alex: Me?
Me: Noooooooooooo, ME!
Alex: Yeah, but who still has the top score in Bookworm?
Me: You just live to burst my bubble don't you?
Excuse me!
At Baja Grill tonight after stuffing myself:
Me: Oh my God! I never should have order that 32 ounce beer. Now I'm going to be belching and peeing all night long.
Alex: That's why I married you.

I don’t get her comedy at all. The only thing I’ve ever seen her do that made me laugh was the “I’m F**king Matt Damon” video. Other than that, I’ll pass.
LA Weather
It snowed today and never got above 50 degrees. The forecast for Monday is calling for 77 degrees. Gotta love Louisiana weather…or NOT!
Sneaux Convo
Alex looks out of the window this morning.
Alex: Dude! It's snowing!
Me: Yeah, I know!
Alex: Look out, world! It's snowing in Louisiana! The Saints are going to the SuperBowl!
New Pen Pal?
To set the scene, Alex is reading emails on his Blackberry.
Him: Should I email this Russian chick back and become pen pals with her then make her my mail-order bride?
Me: No. Unless you like the idea of being divorced. And trust me, you'll have no money to fly her over because I will take you for everything in the divorce...just sayin'.
Him: Huh, so no the mail order Russian wife/pen pal thing, right?
Me: You're a quick study.
