after a vigorous work-out and chill...a semblance of centeredness returns. off with The Exploited. on with ohm and internet lounge.

for those of you who are offended by my temper and anti-American slam sessions, i will offer just this, it's not personal. of course i see everyone as the potentially wonderful/heignous individual they may be. it's you who makes the final decision as far as i'm concerned. i'm open. and if that's not good enough how about this tidbit that my dh offers me thus throwing copious amounts of vitriol on an already stoked fire...i didn't intend to offend you...

now for the mommy blogging...

we had a birthday party this weekend. a sleepover. ice-skating. do-it-yourself pizza. moulin rouge and house of wax three. all beautifully organised and orchestrated by my radient 14 yr old. they giggled until 5 am. when i had to come in and growl a little bit. at 6 am the little people (siblings)snuck in and woke up the whole crew who were sprawled across the living room floor deep in REM. hee, hee, hee. Not long after we stuffed them all with pancakes and they zombied around the house in giggly delirium for another few hrs. the afternoon was devoted to napping.

a great crew of friends. no in-fighting. no jealousy. just a bunch of sweet little girls who i hope will stay friends beyond the trials and possibly...miles.
