I confess...I need a break and making time stand still would be nice too!

I confess...
I have spent way too many hours confined to my office staring into the computer over the last couple of weeks.


I confess...
As a result I'm feeling guilty and lazy. I don't like either.


I confess...
I need to do a better job of finding balance. Balancing my husband, my children, my "work", my house, my 
4-legged babies, my volunteering, my physical self and my blog. My scale is so tilted to one side right now, I should be ashamed...I am.


I confess...
Today is the last day of spring break and although my girls have had a great time we have only spent 3 days together. Today while Honey heads to one beach with her friends {accepting the fact that she would rather be with them than me was tough, but I so get it and would never deprive her of that important part of being a teenager} I will be going to another beach with Peanut and one of my besties and her daughters.


I confess...
I will have my toes in the water, ass in the sand all day. I will watch my beautiful daughter play in the surf and sand and will be full of happiness witnessing it. I will think if her sister spending the day with her friends, making forever memories, and will be thrilled for her. I will laugh with my friend and enjoy being part of the moment. I will love every minute of tomorrow because.... there will be years for cleaning and cooking  for children grow up while you're not looking! 


I confess...
I don't want to miss another minute because I'm at a loss for words when I see that they have gone from this...

                    

To this!

There's plenty of confessing going on today, head on over to Glamazon or Mamarazzi and link up.

Do you ever...

Do you ever shop online and become filled with joy because you can order anything you want because you are in fact the exact same size as the models, especially the VS models?


Do you ever sit in front of the computer first thing in the morning to check your email and blog only to look up to discover you've been sitting there for 4 hours?


Do you ever get in a slump where the only thing you want to do is absolutely nothing?


Do you ever have the urge to just let one rip in a crowded elevator and then look accusingly at the man standing behind you? 


Do you ever feel like just telling the person sitting next to you on a plane that you really don't care and have no desire to talk or listen? Or want to pass him/her a note that says "I'm deaf"?


Do you ever want to tell the person driving around with a box of tissue and an umbrella in their back window that neither of those items will be of any good if they sneeze while driving or if it starts to rain?


Do you ever open the washer to do laundry and realize you started a load of towels 3 days ago and are now forced to rewash them because nothing is worse than a sour towel?


Do you ever look at your caller id and decide that you're really just not in the mood for that person and let it ring?


Do you ever look at yourself in the mirror and think, Damn, I look hot, only to see pictures of yourself from that event a few days later and realize you actually looked old as hell?


Do you ever see people, wonder what were they thinking  then secretly take their picture?

Yeah, me either!

WWTK- When Random Madness Takes Over

Thanks for coming back for the second week of WWTK. Last week was a huge success, a great big thank you to everyone who played along!


Here's a little more information on how this meme works. There are four of us co-hosting, Impulsive Addict, Janette, Mamarazzi and yours truly. Each week we will take turns asking the questions, if there is a question you would like asked please email me and I will do my best to include it one of my weeks. I'll be sure to give you the credit, with a link to your blog, if I use it!


So that being said the four of us have collaborated and would like it if everyone could please follow three simple rules. I know, I know, I hate rules too but...


1. Please include our supah cute button on your post.
2. Please link your WWTK post to the linky {if you need assistance please ask}.
3. Please mention and link to all four of us, adding a link is not that hard and it shows you care! 


Easy enough right?

**ONE MORE REQUEST**

I like to comment as I read, which may or may not be because I have the memory of an anorexic gnat, and would so appreciate it if you would enable your pop-up comment window! Not sure how, it's just 4 easy steps. 1.} Go to your settings tab.  2.} click on Comments. 
3.} Click on Pop-up window in the Comment Form Placement section. 4.}Save Settings. Thank you, now I am a happy girl!


Last week Mamarazzi asked questions pertaining to friendship. It was great seeing everyone's answers and I was pleasantly surprised to see how many of us included our husbands! On three. One, two, three, aweee!


This week I'm asking the questions. I'll be asking random questions because a little Random Madness is good for ya!  


So as Simon used to say, Off We Go.


1.} What is the first thing you notice about the opposite sex? Are you an eyes or a smile person? Maybe another body part?
2.} If a movie was being made about you who would you like to see cast to play you? And would your movie be a comedy, drama, romantic-comedy, action film or a horror movie?
3.} Does your senior yearbook include a senior comment section? If so share what you said about your future goals. Have you met those goals?  If you do not have a yearbook just share an old picture and let us know what your goals where when you were 18 and if you have met them. If you're brave enough, include your senior picture!
4.} What latest trend simply baffles you? 
5.} When you walk into a room how do you present yourself? Do you walk in with confidence and command the attention of others or do you slink in and do your best to go unnoticed?  


How's that for random? My answers are below, please stick around and take a look. 




1.} What is the first thing you notice about the opposite sex? Are you an eyes or a smile person? Maybe another body part? I would have to say their smile. A nice smile with clean teeth is a must. Now back in the day, when I was single, I would do my best to see a guy coming and going before I made a decision on weather or not I was going to let him persue me or not! And I'm not gonna lie I would also try to bump into him to see how firm his chest and arms were. I'm just sayin'! 


2.}If a movie was being made about you who would you like to see cast to play you?  I think I would go with Charlize Thereon. Babe has told me several times that he thinks I look like her. Each time he has said that the girls weren't home, he thinks I don't know what he was after! I just hope he was referring to the way she looks on the left not on the right! 

And would your movie be a comedy, drama, romantic-comedy, action film or a horror movie? I would say a romantic comedy. I've had a storybook life for the most part. I think marrying my high school sweetheart is romantic and I address almost everything with humor. 


3.}Does your senior yearbook include a senior comment section? If so share what you said about your future goals. Have you met those goals? I was so poetic in my senior directory! I was quoted saying, "I plan on furthering my career in the beauty field and to be married in the 90's." Wow, if I didn't know better I'd say maybe I was stoned! I did however accomplish my goals, I finished beauty school and did hair for about 8 years before moving across country married to my Sweetie!


If you're brave enough, include your senior picture! Yeah, I'm not skeered! My Senior picture {class of 1988}  is so funny! I was attending cosmetology school at the same time so my hair was always being cut, permed and colored. Over processed was not in my vocabulary! I don't know where the color copy is and that's a good thing. My hair was butter yellow with dark outgrowth the result of a color class gone wrong. I also have on more Maybelline electric blue eye shadow than should be legally allowed! And no, I was not stoned!

4.}What latest trend simply baffles you? The return of the 80's. My oldest daughter is a sophomore in high school, I was a sophomore 25 years ago and she is wearing the same stuff I did. Leggings with long shirts, lace and neon colors {they make me look so tan, she says}. I swear if high waisted jeans rolled at the ankle, perms, huge bangs and side wings come back in I may need to be institutionalized!  


5.}When you walk into a room how do you present yourself? Do you walk in with confidence and command the attention of others or do you slink in and do your best to go unnoticed? It depends on the type of event I'm attending. If it's a gathering of friends I walk in very comfortably and start chatting with my friends. If it's a formal event I walk in on the arm of my man {taller than him I'm sure because I'm wearing heels} and I always feel confident and beautiful when I'm dressed up and by his side. If I'm walking into a setting where I do not know anyone, a work function for him, I stay close to his side and fairly quiet until I find someone I'm comfortable with. For the most part I am fairly confident and friendly in any setting.


Now it's your turn. Copy the questions, write your post {don't forget to include the button and a link to Impulsive Addict, Janette, Mamarazzi and Me!} and come back to link up!

Mays Monthly VLOG challenge

April's VLOG was fantabulous with 43 bloggy friends linking up. Thank you for playing along!


Like promised a prize is being sent to the blogger that sent the most friends to link up. Two bloggers did a great job bullying  encouraging their friends to participate. A great big shout out to Impulsive Addict and Brandy, you rock ladies!  However only one can walk away the winner and hold the prestigious title of Biggest Bully Biggest Supporter until being either dethroned or re-crowned in June. 


Congratulations IA, you brought the most friends to the party, the crown and sash are all yours, something spectacular will be on it's way soon!


You too can be winner! The next VLOG is May 3rd, start talking it up with your friends now and make sure to tell them to let us know you sent them!


Mays' challenge is brought to you in part by Emmy Mom @ One Day at a Time and Beth @ Living a Goddess Life. You too can be a participant and receive boat loads of linky love by emailing a few ideas for June's Vlog to srmt1970@gmail.com. 


Emmy Mom wants to know...Is there a name you can't stand and why? She's also curious to know if you like your own name {if you're an anonymous blogger a simple yes or no with an explanation will be just fine}. 


"Mama" and I threw in a few This or That questions...


Ocean or Mountains?
Sweet or Salty?
Early Bird or Night Owl?
Edward or Jacob?
Book or Kindle?
Manicure or Pedicure?
MAC or PC?


And the show and tell portion is all Beth. She wants to know what's in your purse {some of you carry a diaper bag instead of a purse if that's the case let us see that}. NO cleaning it out first, that would be cheating! 




Now just a few rules and reminders...


Three things that need to be included in your Vlog post:
1.} The Monthly Vlog button
2.} A link to Mamarazzi and Shawn
3.} A link to Beth and Emmy


Please know that Mamarazzi and I want to visit everyones vlog, as do the others linking up, so please do your best to keep your video related to the above questions and under 5 minutes, 3-4 minutes would be ideal!


May's Vlog will go live on Tuesday, May 3rd and will stay open until May 23rd. I'm looking forward to another great month hearing and seeing my friends!

A little get away

Who doesn't need a little get away? I know we always take advantage of time away whenever we can so when we were asked to head to the lake with friends during the girls spring break and Easter we jumped at the chance.


I am so blessed to have my parents so close and always willing to come and take care of their Grand-dogs when we want to leave. Thanks Mom & Dad!


We spent two days chillin' by the water, laughing, tubing, fishing and watching six girls play. It was such a wonderful time that when it was time to leave Peanut and her friends talked their parents into letting her stay with them for the rest of the week. 


We went to a small town church for Easter service, did the egg hunt in bathing suits, the adults snuck out on the boat for an hour and then we shared a wonderful dinner together. 


I'm back home and already three loads of laundry in. Honey has unpacked and repacked and is all ready to head to SC for the rest of the week with her bestie.


Yes, you read that right. Peanut stayed at the lake and Honey is leaving in a few hours. That means I will have no children until they return Wednesday and Thursday. What will I do? 

My beautiful girls Easter Sunday

Alligators? What alligators?

  

Peanut knows the "golden" egg is always hidden in a tough spot! She was close but H was the winner. 

 

 Peanut and M found time for a little softball.

While Honey just chilled, being the oldest by 3.5 years can stink sometimes! Thank heavens for data plans and iPhones!

I hope y'all had a wonderful Easter and found the time to give God thanks for His ultimate sacrifice and bask in the greatness of His Sons resurrection! 

Friday Confessional ~ the one where I got more ink.

I confess...
I surprised my hubby this week when I told him, who needs diamonds when there's ink! I'm sure he would have loved that little tidbit of info when he bought my anniversary ring almost 5 years ago!


I confess...
Since I talked about possibly getting another tattoo in my Got Ink? post I've been itching to just do it. Well, I finally did it!


Many of you asked what I wanted and I said it was going to be a surprise. One sassy blogger, whose name sounds a lot like Impulsive Addict, guessed it right away, she's such a stinker. I promised to share it with you as soon as I did it. I am a woman of my word, so here you go.


I confess...
I had it done at the mall. Yes, the mall! Tuesday Honey and I bonding with a little retail therapy. There is a tattoo parlor {is that what they're called?} in the mall so I seized the moment. I knew exactly what I wanted and since there was no art work involved my only criteria was that the facility was clean. 


I confess...
I threatened to put tobacco in the artist mouth if he kept talking like a truck driver in front of my daughter. I know I brought her into an adult setting but I still think a higher level of respect could have been shown. It' a good thing he was funny, his sense of hhumor saved his butt!


When I told him what I wanted and he looked at my finger and said, "I hope he has a short name, Sam, Pat, Dan...cuz you've got small fingers." He only referred to me as "Babes" wife, gave me a ton of crap about the size of my wedding ring and thought Honey and I were a hot mess. 


I confess...
I was prepared to scream KELLY CLARKSON if necessary. I would have changed it to BRADLEY COOPER because well, I like men but it was needed. He said it was going to hurt like a "mofo, that I would want to pull my hand and that that wasn't an option. I was prepared for 4 minutes of torture but it really didn't hurt. It was a little uncomfortable when he got close to the webbing of my finger but I've delivered 2 kids, this was nothin'. Choosing the font took longer than the actual tattooing. 


I confess...
Babe had no clue I was doing this, he didn't even know I wanted it. I went out for dinner with the triangle that night and he was sleeping when I got in. I decided to wait until he noticed it or saw the charge on the debit card. When he kissed me good-bye the next morning it was the first thing he noticed. He honestly thought it was fake, it took a little convincing but once he took a closer look he knew it was the real deal. The look on his face was priceless. He loves it and the meaning behind it. It is definitely something just for me/us. Most people will never know I have it since my ring covers almost all of it. My only regret is that I didn't do it years ago.


I confess...
I may or may not be lying when I claim my ring "irritates" it. I may not wear my ring for a while, I so love looking at my mans name on my finger!

Because doesn't every Mother bring her 16 year old with when she gets a tattoo. I needed pictures, don't judge me!

Yep, that's the tender spot!

I know you can't see it clearly but since it doesn't say Babe, I'm ok with it. You'll just have to trust me when I say it looks fabulous! If we're Face Book friends I have pictures there, go check it out.

Now click on the button below and you'll be transported to Mamarazzi's where you can link up your Friday Confessions. Just Do It, it's like milk, It Does A Body Good!

We Want to Know Wednesday Q&A

I'll admit it, I'm nosey. Isn't everyone to a certain extent? It's when you take it to the next level and snoop in your friends medicine cabinets and under their bathroom sink that it becomes an issue. 


So to help curb our appetite of curiosity here is the first edition of the new weekly linky, We Want to Know Wednesday Q&A **WWTK**, hosted by Impulsive Addict, Janette, Mamarazzi and yours truly. 




1. Do you make friends easily? Honestly, I'm not sure. I find it rather easy to enjoy the company of others, I laugh and cut up with them and I always have a great time when I meet new people but rarely do I meet someone and just know that we are going to be great friends. I have lots of friends that would actually qualify more as acquaintances than friends. 


2. What 3 qualities are a must in a friend? 1.} Knowing when to listen and when to offer advice. Unsolicited "help" is not something I necessarily want, I just want someone to listen to me when I need to vent. 2.} They have to love {or at least be able to fake it} my husband and kids. Sadly, sometimes your husband and kids can be deal breakers in a friendship. It's always a bonus when you find someone whose husband becomes your husbands friend.  3.} A sense of humor or the ability to accept mine. If we can't laugh at everything and anything that will make for a very long GNO!


3. What makes you a good friend? Well I hope several things. I try to keep it real, if those pants make your ass look big I'm not gonna lie to you. I'm funny and can take being laughed at {Lord knows I've done enough stupid stuff to deserve it}. I'm giving, if I have it and you want it or need it I'll share. Except my ice cream and my husband, those two things are off limits! 


4. Have you ever met a bloggy friend in real life? Yes? Tell us about your meet up. No? Who would you love to meet? Yes! I have met Becca from the Texas Darlings 

We chatted over a Patron margaritas! 

and Shawn from Swaneesinger.

She is gorgeous, so freaking tiny and sadly doesn't blog anymore!

   
You can read the story of my adventure with Becca here {this is actually Becca's post because I cannot find mine. Oh, I hope I didn't delete it on accident!} and with Shawn here. And I am super excited to hang out again with Becca and meet Vivienne, Impulsive Addict, JennyKate and Jen in May. 29 days Ladies. 29 days!


5. Who is your best friend? Tell us about them. I have more than one best friend. It's funny when I was my daughters age I was just like her. I thought the friends I had in high school were going to be my life long friends. We were going to get married together, have kids together, vacation together, we were always going to be apart of each-others lives. Funny how that changes when you actually do get married, have children and move across the country! You know what they say, you have friends for a season and friends for a reason! 


Danielle- Is my daily, more like multiple times a day, dose of friendship and reality. I really don't think there is anything she doesn't know about me and we're still friends! Our husbands are friends and our children refer to us as Aunt and Uncle. We vacation together, cry together, support each other, laugh together and have lunch together almost every Thursday! We met when Honey was in her 1st grade class, if she can teach my child and still want to be my friend than she's definitely a keeper. I'm just sayin'! 

Rebecca- I'm sure you've heard me reference the "triangle" well Rebecca is the third point of that triangle. Danielle, Rebecca and Shawn, together we are the triangle, it's actually more like the Bermuda Triangle, others have tried to get in but have only gotten lost. Like Danielle she knows it all and has continued to stick around. Our husbands are friends, I am Aunt Shawn to her children and I know without a shadow of a doubt she would be by my side in my time of need! Out of the three of us, she is the nice one, and has to keep us in line more often than not. I met Rebecca when I walked Honey into her first day of Kindergarten, she was her teacher. I knew instantly that we would be friends! 

Natalie- Is one of those friends that I met and just knew we were destined to be friends. I truly believe God made our paths cross. Isn't it funny how He just knows what you need and when you need it! She has moved away but our bond has not left!

Pam- This chick is always put together, even at 3 in the morning when she comes to pick up her child who had just gotten sick all over Peanuts bedroom from eating too much junk at a sleepover. Talk about intimidating! My first impression of Pam was "damn, does she ever not look like Barbie?" I never saw us as friends but am so glad I was wrong, I have no idea what I would do without her. Her husband makes up one point of my husbands triangle, yes, he has one too, and I love her daughters. It's a win, win friendship!

Alisa-   I thought Pam was the only one always put together but was proven wrong the day I met Alisa. She could wear a burlap sack and make it look good! She is reserved unless a cup of ice is nearby {total inside joke that I cannot share, sorry}, level headed, soft spoken, calm, professional and always knows the perfect question to ask. She, like the others, would do whatever I needed to be done without a second thought. Her husband is point number three of the mens triangle and couldn't be any more opposite of her! 

When all of my friends and families are together we are an estrogen bomb waiting to explode. Together we have 11 girls and 1 boy. They are 16, 13, 13, 12, 11, 10, 8, 8, 8, 6, 6 {the only boy} and 3. 


I am blessed beyond measure to have these incredibale ladies a part of my life! These are my girlfriends, the ones I can always count on, the ones I love so very much!


I cannot make a list of my best friends without including Babe, he has been my true best friends and the love of my life for almost 25 years ! My Mom and my Sister are also my friends, they are always exactly where I need them to be and always know exactly the right thing to say. I cannot wait for the day to come when I get to see my girls become friends! 


Well, there you have it, I hope you stuck around, it was a long one! Now copy these questions, grab our adorable button and go write your post then come on back and enter your WWTK post in the linky below! 

Never A Dull Moment

No, really I kid you not there is never a dull moment here at the Seriously house!


NEVER!


Yesterday morning I was still tired after getting Peanut off to school so I decided to crawl back into bed for another hour. 


Thirty minutes later the dogs starting barking, I remembered two new trees were replacing the two that didn't make our cold winter so I ignored them. 


The dogs barked again. I ignored them, again.


The dogs barked and began to pounce on the glass door. Continuing to ignoring them was no longer an option. 


When I opened the door I saw a slight look of panic on the mans face. Not because he had just been greeted by almost 300 pounds of angry German Shepherd but because while prepping the hole for the enroute trees he had severed a gas line.


Not just my gas line, that would not be nearly interesting enough, but the main gas line for my neighborhood!


"Uh Ma'am, we just cut your gas line. Where do we shut it off at?"


Now I ask you, you've all seen a picture or two of me {because I'm narcissistic like that}, do I look like the "Oh, I know exactly where the gas line meets the house, in fact let me turn it off for you kind of girl"? Even in my sexy VS jammies flannel VS bottoms and tank-top, sleep in my eyes, bed head and a cup of coffee in hand I'm pretty sure I look fairly clueless in the man-knowledge department!


I called Babe. Guess what? Yep, he had no freaking clue either. So as gas was visibly flowing from the end of my driveway and birds were dropping from the sky I ran to the bill drawer to search for last months gas bill hoping to find a costumer service number. A number that with any luck would have a living person answer.


Apparently the owner of the tree company had called the gas company as well. This alarmed the very nice English speaking {thank you Jesus} lady who answered the phone enough that she checked the extent of the leak. 


I was unaware that she had done this. I was also unaware that the leak was bad enough that she needed to call 911. I was quickly made aware of her phone call when the SIX fire and hazmat trucks came to a stop in front of my house and my street was closed.


SUPER! 


Like any concerned Mom {Honey was in the shower} would do I ran for my camera. This is blogging and scrapbooking material at its finest people. This is also a judge-free zone so don't even start!


A few minutes later the doorbell rang again. I sent Rogue and Deja out back to play and opened the door, still in my jammies-thank God I had on a bra, to a not so hot firefighter {aren't all firefighters supposed to be hot}. The first two words out of his mouth where "I'm sorry". Yeah me too but not for the same reason you are I'm sure.


PERFECT!


"I'm sorry but you're going to have to leave the house. We cannot risk having you inside if this thing blows." Yeah this blows alright! He assured me everything would be fine and that if he was wrong he would save my dogs. 


You know there's a catch in everything right? This catch, I could not start my car.


FABULOUS! 


Thankfully a friend was able to come and get us. An hour later the gas company called, Rogue was doing his job and would not let them through the gate to the house. As I pulled up the six fire trucks had been joined by two gas trucks, several neighbors and the not so happy owner of the tree company. He will be getting a sizable bill in the mail for the service that was required on the 35 affected houses. I feel bad, he's a nice guy and although he should have called the line detection center prior to digging he just assumed, as I would have, that if a tree came out than it will be safe to put another back in. I certainly hope he has insurance since I was snickered at when I said, it won't be more than a thousand dollars will it?


Rogue was a celebrity. The way he guarded the gate, never leaving his post or taking his eyes off them was apparently very impressive. I was asked to bring him out for a visit.   His picture was taken, he was admired and treated like the king that he thinks he is.


Honey made it to school only 10 minutes late.


I lost four hours of my day and am still wearing the same sexy VS tank top that I answered the door in 15 hours ago. 


BUT


There were no injuries or damage to any houses. Through all the chaos it's not very hard to see how very blessed I was once again!

The break was in a hole between the purple/red shrubs and the fire truck. A few months ago a beautiful 12' canary palm stood there.

I so wanted a better picture but I had a very pissy daughter with me. She found my need to document the events very annoying and inappropriate {sometimes she's more of a grown-up than I am} so I snapped this as we were walking to safety. 

Sorry neighbors but this road is closed!

This totally changes my definition of Manic Monday! 

Coming soon...

Two of my favorite bloggers, a new friend and yours truly are starting a new Linky Party. We Want To Know {WWTK}  will make its debut Wednesday, April 20th. 


Each week we will ask five questions. Your mission, if you choose to accept it, is to answer the questions, include a link to all of the hostesses blogs, include the ever so adorable retro housewife button in your post and link up that post with Mister Linky {if you do not know how to do that I will be more than happy to help}.


Hopefully our new weekly party will accomplish several things. 

• Being in a bloggy funk sucks! WWTK will offer a weekly writing prompt.
• WWTK offers another opportunity to make new friends and you know what they say, the more the merrier.
• Like our button says, this is a great reason to avoid the laundry, that right there sold me!

If you're not already familiar with my partners in crime, Impulsive Addict, Janette from The Johanson Journey and Mamarazzi please take a few minutes to get to know them, I promise you won't be sorry!

Nothing sexy again this week

I confess...

I wear a uniform to work. Y'all didn't know I worked did you? Well I do and being a SAHM is tough work darn it!

Babe would love this to be my uniform but he's just S.O.L!

This is my uniform. I know I'm a sexy beast, try to control yourselves! 

My hair has got to be out of my face. I only wear makeup when I'm going out and by out I mean date night or GNO. I look like this so often that when I ran to get dog food after a meeting last week they almost didn't recognize me {I'm in there every 8 days and the same couple has owned the store since it opened 3 years ago}. Yoga pants and a t-shirt are my best friends! And because I share TMI, I'll just let you know, nothing comes between me and my yoga pants. Yep, that's right Brooke and her Calvin's have nothing on me! 

I confess...

I have a fairly strong stomach but when I opened a can of green beans for dinner the other night and saw an unknown object floating on top I about tossed my cookies. It almost looks like a piece of bacon but these beans were not cooked in bacon. I'm hoping no one lost a bacon Band-Aid in the cannery that day. I guess it's better than a finger!

I confess...

Jewel and Deja had their teeth cleaned Tuesday and since they can't swish and spit they have to be put under. Poor Rogue did not know what to do all day without his sisters. He was so excited when I brought them home but couldn't understand why Deja didn't want to play. She was still a little stoned from the anesthetic and just wanted to sleep in peace. Rogue kept bringing her toys, laying them in front of her and pawing at her. 

It was both the sweetest and most pathetic thing I've seen him do.

He finally gave up and went to the couch and stared at her, I think he was trying to use telepathy to get her up. He failed!

Have something to confess? Go link up with Mamarazzi and Glamazon they're waiting. Come on you know what they say, confession is good for a good laugh for the soul.
