    Default Waking up in the twilightzone....

    ok, bear with me:
    I did NaNo, I was behind, caught up, then my word processor threw me curveball and stole 2000 words from me, that on the 30th at 11PM...

    Been riding drag on the kid, often til 1AM or later
    been riding drag on him because of report cards that never appear, considering that homework doesn't either....

    Got a new alarmclock, since I have to have a radio, the buzzer seems to cause physical harm to me yes, it hurts us!

    Oh, and the dryer decided to go on strike last night, the single most important appliance in my house right after the coffee maker.

    So this morning at 6 the alarm goes off. Bubba Gump shrimp...ther is shrim this, shrimp that, horse gumbo....
    I hit the snooze button...walk down the hall, wake the kid the first time...make coffee....

    WHAT?!!!!
    HORSE GUMBO?!!!!

    yes, I am sure I misheard. No I have no Idea what the station is I have on.
    Yes, I was perplexed, I called DH at work. I am sure he thinks I am losing it (No I know he is sure I done lost it)

    nana nana

    welcome to the twilight zone!

    Methinks the place between your dreams and reality perhaps?

    Dream: "Horse (this), horse (that)..."
    +Reality/radio: "Shrimp gumbo recipe/special of the week/my mama used to make"
    = "horse gumbo?"

    Hey, I fell asleep on the couch last week, the Ex Factor came on to record, and next thing I knew, I was Simon Cowell's girlfriend.

    Wish I had fallen asleep when The Hunt for Red October was on instead...

    PS I had homework knock-down drag-outs w/ my lovely son f-o-r-e-v-e-r. He is now 23, just graduated from college, and has a job!

    Hunt for Red October?

    hmmmmmmm I wonder....

    Though Simon isn't bad looking.

    What bugs me though is that the dryer died....it is a relatively new one, only about 2 or three years old...


    I must have been having dreams about eating horse or something...

    or I just did not pay attention, now seriously, who can afford that!
