love is . . .

going to a movie that you would never watch on your own
nope
not in a million years
but you go
you always go
you've seen king kong
and the hulk
and ghost rider

and now she wants to see naruto
you don't care about this film
but you will go see it
and your husband will go with you
because there is a 15 year old girl
that you really love
and she really loves japanimation
and her mom won't let her
go see a movie with a boy
without an adult

so here we go
the chosen ones
wednesday night
double date with a pair of 15-year-olds
to a japanimation film

this is love

  5. love is also

    cleaning up poop

    off the living room floor

    b/c it fell out of your 2 year old's diaper

    and not making him feel badly that poop fell out of his diaper

    even tho you pretty much want to puke

  6. oh mel,
    think puking is fair game as long as you don't puke ON the two year old.
    or call him names.
    because really
    poop on the floor
    is always gross.
    yep.

  7. saw your comment on nittygritty's blog...

    and thought it was fun that i'm reading the same lamott book right now too...

    i do love her collections of story/memoir pieces that all seem to fit together to tell one Story.

    your profile and blog make me think we'd be friends :)

    i'll come back sometime to read more.
