Sisterhood

Bee and I had a phone conversation last weekend that went a little something like this:

Bee: "I keep checking the blog to see if you've posted anything."

Me: "I know. I keep checking the blog to see if you've posted anything."

In the background you could hear Señor Marine's pleas for a popsicle (he was recovering from knee surgery)

Bee: "One of us should post."

Me: "Yeah. Did you hear that Jessica Simpson finally had her baby?"

Long pause while Bee lets me know she couldn't possibly care less.

Me: "I think if we were celebrity sisters, we would be the Simpson sisters."

Bee: "The twins?"

Me: "Ashlee and Jessica aren't twins. They're just like us. An edgy younger sister and a ditzy older sister."

Bee: "I thought you meant Marge's sisters. The twins."

Me: "Because we don't shave our legs and are chainsmokers?"
Bee: "Because they don't really do anything besides stand around and heckle people."

And this is why you get such quality posts from me and Bee. You're welcome as always.

PS- For those of you who were concerned, Señor Marine got his strawberry popsicle.

Doppelgangers

In my continuing effort to enrich my children's lives and grow their impressionable minds, I let them look with me while I'm online. Which led to them incorrectly thinking I was looking at pictures of people we actually know.



While listening to Adele, Pipsqueak was convinced it was Auntie Bee. It may have been the sultry voice or the 60's era look, I know not which one led him to think it was Bee.


While looking at pictures of Posh Spice and her newish baby, several children thought it was Uncle Artiste's girlfriend, the Fashionista. (That mistaken identity I can totally understand- other than the baby as a fashion accessory. Because the Fashionista doesn't have any children.)

Since I've come to realize the children are easily confused, I've been thinking about showing them some pictures and trying to convince them it's me.



So far no luck. Maybe if I didn't try to convince them I'm a Victoria's Secret model- I think I may be aiming too high with that one.
