In response to yesterday's post, I've lost my mind.
I took the kids school supply shopping today. All went fine and we only spent $22, not bad right? I then called up hubby to join us for lunch at the local pizza buffet. Let me tell you the crowd was like a pack of wolves salivating at the mouth when they heard the oven timer go off! It was beyond crazy, it was pure hysteria of tomato sauce.
While I quietly munched on a Cesar salad, the adults were busy training their kids in the art of how to tower pizza onto their plate so high that anyone after them had nothing left to pick from. Seriously, the pizza pans were empty after a family or 4 more than once.
Whatever happened to take a few pieces, leave some for others and look forward to another hot yet creative pizza combination on your next trip? I knew the law of nature is 'only the strong will survive' but did I need to witness it at a pizza buffet. By the amount of manors this city lacks the majority of us will starve if the pizza maker quits.
While watching the public display of heathens, I strategically asked hubby if he'd be home the rest of the day? If he would take the kids home so I could get some shopping done? As luck had it no appointments today so he'd 'gladly' take the kids back home. Score!
So here I have the afternoon to shop, alone, without whiner 1 & 2. You'd think I'd take advantage of the situation and fill the back of the truck with goodies. Yeah, I thought I'd be squeezing items in every nook and cranny also. However, because of my certain brand of crazy I only purchase things on clearance. I picked up a whole one decorative plate for $1.73.
Now I know I've completely lost my mind in this heat and humidity.
Excuse me while I spend the rest of the afternoon watching The Tudors Season 2 amongst a mound of popcorn and endless Smirnoff lemonades.

Yeah, um ... I dunno. Seriously.
It's hot here. Hot and humid. I'm sure this has something to do with my current metal state. There's just nothing up there today. Kinda like the majority of the reality shows out there lately.
Speaking of, we watched the LCS (Last Comic Standing) finale last night. Aside from Kathy's performance the show didn't do it for me. I understand the producers are trying to update the blueprint of the show to keep it fresh but honestly they messed with a great format in my opinion. Let's hope AGT (America's Got Talent) delivers tonight or I might just have to swear off mainstream reality TV and keep my reality viewing to any of the Real Housewives series on cable.
Bringing it around full circle, I've noticed I've changed the tone of my blog over the long months. It's gone from personal life stories of the day to decorating my house and a few gardening posts sprinkled in for craziness. I think I've changed the format more than I care to admit. While I enjoy sharing these things with whomever will take the time to stop by I fear I've lost my mojo. I used to be able to tell the story of my life like a true Irish woman (don't let a little thing like the facts get in the way of a good tale).
I think I've lost my mind. Then again, maybe it's the heat.
