Randomly random

Welcome! Oh don't mind the ants, I just haven't swept around here in awhile!

Here I am, stranded at home because the general germiness of schools and the wacko temperature shifts have kept at least one person in this house suffering from some sort of coughing/stuffy/running for about four weeks now. I have never seen my kids catch colds with less than a week of respite in between before. Suffice to say, I am not impressed by this marvel. Today the daughter is home trying to figure out a way to keep her overly stuffed head upright. It is not that I had any outrageous plans to cancel, but I had considered wandering aimlessly out in the real world. This is also not to say that I do not have about two weeks of things that could and should be done around my house...hence my plan to flee! I am completely baffled by my inability to effortlessly shift gears these days. It's like a massive effort to talk myself into anything that deviates from what I thought I was going to do. I guess this really only applies to when my flight efforts are thwarted and I am left to make an in-house list. I did make one tactical error today that involved getting back under my covers at 7:15 after finding out Senorita Stuffy was staying put. I had been up getting the boy child out the door since 6:00, sooooo nap time? This was not conducive to list making...at all!

I heard an ad on the radio yesterday, regarding people whose online habits were problematic. The show in question was going to discuss things like facebook and how to know if you have a problem. One of the warning signs they gave was if you were to start neglecting other things. Well of course I would rather be online than making dinner or vacuuming. I am guessing they meant more serious violations like neglecting other humans in the house. At what age can they fend for themselves anyway? 48? Is hiding from the same as neglecting?

Does this guy seem sexy to you?Moreso than if his hands weren't clean? There were life size folks like this sprinkled around the hospital, but his sign had the goofiest message, in my opinion. I felt like I should know who he was, as why else would I care what his views on proper hygeine were? Maybe none of the Grey's Anatomy docs couldn't fit the photo shoot into their schedules for a lowly Central New York hospital's "wash your damn hands" campaign? There was also a nurse whose sign said "So easy, even a three year old can do it"...um, yeah but they don't, unless you help!

Would it really compromise the amount of jewelry these could accommodate if heads were included?It seems like arms might even be a bonus. They just remind me of that one toy in Sid's room from Toy Story who had a head but an erector set type of body. I guess I am just not edgy enough!

Uh-oh, the washer and dryer have stopped...time to rotate!

Tumble on over to visit Stacy and see what randomness other folks are cleaning out!
