they drugged me and took advantage of my teeth

When I arrived at the dentist today I was a little worried that after taking the loopy pills I was still extremely coherent. So they gave me something stronger and BOY HOWDY DID IT WORK.

I remember laying back on the dentist chair and picking out something to watch on the tv in the ceiling - My Big Fat Greek Wedding.

And I remember watching the scene where they discuss sending her to Greece to find a husband, because they were making a mold of my teeth at the same time.

And then I remember waking up in my own bed in different clothes at 10:00 PM when my husband kept yelling "Rise and shine, sleeping beauty!"

So basically, I can't recall ANYTHING about most of my day. But apparently I was interacting with with everyone like crazy. I know this because my husband was kind enough to record some of these interactions on his phone. And I figure I might as well post them online now while I'm still a little fuzzy and thinking their funny, because by tomorrow morning I'll be thinking straight and I'm sure I'll never want them to see the light of day - which just goes to show that I make awesome decisions when drugged!

(warning: my mouth is completely numb and puffy, and I have really really really loud hiccups. So be prepared for some ugly.)

I think future me is going to be mad at past me for posting these. SORRY FUTURE ME, blame the drugs.

Oh. My. That is hilarious. You were so delighted to rush home to your beloved children. :P On that part you sounded like me when I'm NOT on drugs.

Awesome. The loopy pills sound nice. Sometimes I'd like to forget about most of my day and then ask, "Is this where we live?"

Thank you. That was hilarious. The way you were looking at the camera was killing me. And then asking why your house was so ugly. I am going to be laughing about this all day.

hair loss and mourning

I like Monkey's hair long. I tried to grow out Opie's hair when he was younger, but he has always had a tremendously large head, and he also has very thick wavy hair. You pair those two together, throw in some long locks, and you've got yourself a genuinely bonified giant-head child. So I've learned my lesson: keep Opie's hair short. But Monkey's hair? It's so soft, and straight (our only straight-haired child) and super super cute when it's long. SUPER CUTE. (Agree with me - it's my blog.) But not many people liked the whole long hair thing. I kept having to threaten various family members with things like, "If I come back to find him with short hair I will DISOWN you, run away with my kids and you will never hear from us again. EVER." (Husband was particularly sensitive to this threat.) However, I did say that once random strangers started referring to him as a girl, I would consider cutting it. And even though ...

yeeeeeeee ha

We took the kids to a rodeo today. In my mind I knew I wanted to take them for the experience, but also I was thinking: rodeo=country western torture. I've been to a few rodeos before. The small town next to the small town where I grew up had one every summer. It was always hot and super dusty, and everyone got to sit on rickety-ish old stadium benches that didn't have backs. Also, you had to make sure you didn't wear flip flops, because they could fall under the benches and get trampled by the waiting bulls. (Seriously, there were bulls below us once - I was like 9, it scared the poop out of me, I thought my shoes were goners.) But the rodeo today? SUPER AWESOME. I would bet money that I had a better time than my kids did. (And they didn't even play that much country music, which is great, because I think that would have ruined the whole thing for me.) First of all, it was indoors. And at noon. And had special fam...
