You’re Wearing That?
If it’s Tuesday, this must be Random Tuesday Thoughts. It’s brought to you by Keely at The Un-Mom. She really knows how to rock Tuesdays so go and check her out and tell her the Blue Monkey Butt sisters sent you!

Have you seen the commercials for the new show “Worst Cooks in America“? Apparently the contestants are nominated by their friends and family. Do you really need friends or family like that? Although if someone wants to nominate me for What Not To Wear, I won’t be upset. That stalking they do beforehand is a little creepy though. If they stalked me, they would see me rushing to drive J-Man to school because he missed the bus again and I would probably be wearing my Yoga pants and a sweatshirt. Oh wait, that’s pretty much what I wear all the time. I think I’d have a hard time spending $5000 on myself. I haven’t spent that much money on myself in a decade. I’d be like “Ooh, I can get some really cute things for the kids.” or “I could so stock up my pantry and freezer.” Plus, they don’t let you buy Yoga pants on that show and they’d make fun of my “before” wardrobe and then throw it all away. Never mind, maybe I don’t want to party with Stacy and Clinton.
J-Man has another cold. I swear he gets sick every weekend and then I have to call every Monday and talk to the scary attendance lady. I try to time the phone call for when the kids are getting off of the buses and I think she will be too busy to answer the phone. Then I just get her voicemail and can leave a message. It doesn’t always work. I’m hoping I won’t have to call and talk to her. It’s my only day off alone until next week sometime. The key word is “Alone”. I love being with the kids, but I really would like a few minutes to myself. I’m so selfish.
In a couple of weeks my husband is flying down to Florida with our Disney Daughter. She’ll be starting her second internship there. At first, I wasn’t jealous at all because he was planning on driving her down there and pretty much turning right around and coming back as soon as she was settled. Now they are flying down a few days early, spending a few days at my MIL’s place on the ocean and relaxing. Then they’ll drive up to Orlando, get settled and then my suntanned, relaxed husband will fly back a couple of days later. I admit it, I’m soooooooooooo freakin’ jealous. I’ll be stuck here in the cold and the snow with the 2 younger children and the dogs. On top of that I’ll be missing the Social Media Moms Conference at Walt Disney World that’s due to start the day he gets back. I’d sell one of my kidneys to go but so far no takers. So I’m a little bitchy and will be for a few weeks. You’ve been warned.

My oldest son hates drinking water, but he can stay outside for hours eating snow.
I hate the “Flirty Girl Fitness” commercial. It’s way too long and it’s like watching strippers practice with their clothes on. I guess once you’ve mastered the work out video you can go get a job at your local strip club.
The last two times I colored my hair I got hair dye on my hand between my thumb and my index finger. I’m thinking there is a defect in the saran wrap gloves they give you. Now I have this dark brown spot on my hand which makes people go, “what the hell is wrong with your hand?” To which I can reply, “I have that Michael Jackson disease, except I’m getting darker instead of lighter”.
Things I yell at my Wii Fit trainer - Yes I had to put my foot down, you told me I could! No, I don’t know how I gained those 2.1 lbs since last time, if I knew I wouldn’t of gained them! So what if my leg is shaky I’m holding my other leg behind my head! So what if it’s been 2 days since I worked out, I was busy!
Don’t forget to join us for What The Hell Wednesday tomorrow!
Stumble it!

Elle, I can’t watch Worst Cooks in America since the cable company took away my Food Network. I wanted to see it. I always thought it would be fun to be on What Not to Wear, but I know I would be offended by whoever nominated me.
Stacy, I am planning to color my hair soon. I wonder what color I will dye my hand. I fight with my Wii Fit trainer too. He is very pushy and obnoxious.

Elle - I have seen that show Worst Cooks in America and it amazes me that none of those people thought to take a normal cooking class BEFORE embarrassing themselves on national t.v.
Stacy - I don’t get this Wii Fit thing. What good is a computerized trainer if he still knows you missed class?

Elle - Why dont you trade places with your hubs? You could suddenly develop a great fear of being left at home alone with 2 youngin’s..
Stacy - I totally think you should order the Flirty Girls Fitness Dvd’s! Really. Then you can do a whole review on them for us.

I’ve been watching The Worst Cooks, but can’t get past the judges’ overly extravagent hand gestures. And the fact that I just don’t intend to make food that difficult.
Is your daughter in the College Program at Disney? (I knew a LOT of people in the CP..)

Where are the monkeys? For the love of all that is good and decent, why can’t I see the monkeys?
Elle: I could do a lot with 5K to spend, but I don’t think it would be worth the humiliation of letting Stacy and Clinton, rip apart my fashion choices on cable t.v. Oh wait, they do your hair and makeup too don’t they. Never mind. Totally worth it.
I’d be pissed too about not getting to go to Florida.
Stacy: Flirty Girl Fitness! The name says it all. Nobody is feeling flirty when they’re doing lunges on the Wii Fit, throw in a stripper pole and it’s a whole other story.
Stacy (the Random Cool Chick)
Elle - I haven’t seen the previews or the show, guess I’ve been living under a rock! Or spending too much time trying to get my computer to stop giving me the Blue Screen of Death. Sorry J-Man caught another cold - hope he doesn’t share! I think you should totally trade places with your hubby. You know, to keep your sanity.
Stacy - Princess Nagger is the same way…she says water is boring, but will eat snow like it’s going out of style. Now we need more snow so she’ll have her water intake.
I’ve been ignoring my WiiFit which means that when I dust it off soon my WiiFit trainer is going to give me lots of grief. I think I’ll mute the TV during that time just for spite.
