His Costume
A couple of weekends ago our church had its annual Harvest Party. One of the activities every year is a costume contest.

Well, I am a slacker. I didn’t really talk about the costume contest all that much. Therefore no one asked for help with his costume. My laziness truly knows no bounds.

When we got there costume-less, my oldest son decided that he wanted to be in the costume contest.

He walked over to where the judging was taking place.

He told them that he wanted to enter.

It was patiently explained to him that to be judged in the costume contest one actually had to be wearing a costume. The folks running the judging kindly pointed out to him that the jeans, t-shirt and hoodie he was sporting didn’t really count.

Oh, but he insisted that he was wearing a costume.

They asked him what he was dressed as. He replied,

“I’m the employee of the month.”

Hey, You,
person who threw the football with her son on Saturday. You thought your muscles were in great shape since you weren’t at all sore from the activity on Sunday.

My advice….wait for it.

You have to laugh at yourself when raising your arm to put in your contacts on Monday morning makes you want to yelp.

I Nearly Succumbed
to buying a Miley Cyrus shirt at the Wal-Marts today. In my defense, said shirt did have Union Jack on it. However, I think an intervention might still be required….

Poaching An Egg in My Microwave…
ended up tasting good.

The problem though is that the recipe said it would take 2 and 1/2 minutes.

But, no, my microwave is an over-achiever, apparently.

It gets a poached egg all the way done in 1 minute.

Nothing like an explosion with messy consequences to truly wake you up on a Monday morning.
