Random Thoughts the 13th: Jason Takes RTT

Funny anecdote: When Hannah (our youngest) was born, the vixen was nursing her. Eventually teeth showed up....one day Hannah bit her nipple, looked up at the vixen, and smiled.

Well, the nursing ended right then and there.

Same thing happened with our Hannah. Those little teeth are like razors!

So, this morning I'm at work and can't remember our password to get to our bank account. I try calling Wifey-poo, but keep hitting the wrong numbers on the phone. I look at my co-worker and say,"God, I keep mis-dialing the damn phone. Ever do that in your dreams?"

Then my alarm went off.

I went to a 24 hour diner here in Downtown San Diego and they didn't have any pie. I just get the urge to have a pie in a ******* diner you know? This ad speaks to me but I was disappointed tonight.

That's criminal!

Did they even have coffee?

Speaking of coffee, why does it taste better from a heavy traditional diner cup?

It occurred to me that when you call a business and get the robot, they tell you to "dial" the number of the extension you want.

How many phones have dials these days?

Usually when I have that dream I'm using a roto-dial phone, and my finger keeps slipping out of the hole before I get to the stop. That might be why I thought it was the real deal this time. I just kept fat-fingering the buttons.

My wife & I have had plans to meet someone for lunch for several days now. I've been telling her "we will meet them sometime between 11 and 11:30" (when they get to town) for several days.

This AM I say "ready to leave home at 11?" and she's all "WHAT? YOU SAID WE HAVE UNTIL 11:30!!!!"

I guess I've reached that time in life where I have to start estimating things 30 minutes in advance . . .

right now the silly boy just laughs when you firmly say "NO" to him. We may be in trouble. Though one time I think I was loud enough that he got scared and cried. DH is like mean mommy yelling at baby and I'm like you're welcome to take my place and see how you like it!

DH likes to blame his silliness on me but we were watching old videos of DH as a baby last night that his parents gave to us.............so many times DH and I looked at each other and I just raised an eyebrow. Little man may look like me but if you only had audio of these videos, all his grunts, cries, and silly sounds........it sounds exactly like little man. But even some of the expressions - especially when DH got mad and started to cry.......like father like son, lol.

We taught our girls to turn around and slide down the steps backwards on their bellies. Wouldn't surprise me if they still do it today.

how did that work? because I'd like to do something like that with the nut. Youngest niece was good around stairs at like 18 months and I'd just feel better if he knew how to do that vs having to be 100% on watch at other houses.

Hey for our Random Thoughts bracket challenge is there a buy in or is it just bragging rights?

The wife taught our kids to do that too, until they both screamed in pain all night with carpet burn all along the front of their torsos.

My one and only grandson just got an undercut hair styling that is identical to the one his dad rocked 20 years ago. Like father, like son, indeed!

Bragging rights.

Buy-in. Do you prefer to use Venmo, Zelle or Paypal?

No glasses or goatee...yet...and he's 12 (his dad was in his late teens in the second pic)

We did the same thing with our kids. If you demonstrate it and help them get started a little, they figure it out pretty quickly. Since the little one just learned to crawl, you may need to wait a couple of weeks.

Even though they're really cute, they're pretty darn smart.

Unlike me, who's just cute.

So, not sure if the gf is ever going back to @BCClone's site ever again. Loaded out a couple loads early this morning, and just as she was starting to shower in, I hear this blood curdling scream. I turn around, expecting either something falling on her, or a scene from Criminal Minds to unfold in front of me. There was a mouse that ran towards here and into the shower while she was in it and it couldnt get around the shower curtain.

She finally comes running to me, I eventually get her calming down, and I have to go "take care of it."

Between loads we left, because it was going to be a couple hours, once we are back, she is in the office, Im in the entrance and she lets out another blood curdling scream. This time one ran out from underneath the dryer. Luckily for it and me, it turned around.

Im expecting her 2 week notice anytime.

It's better if they do it in a onesy.

When he crawls to the stairs, turn him around and start him down. Pretty soon he'll get the idea. Helps if they have carpet on them, and he's in a onesy.

Your GF showers at BCs place?

I found myself agreeing with two straight @oldman posts in a row.

Being that he also wore a bandana occasionally during college, he should appreciate the fact that I wore an ISU bandana when we went on a snorkeling excursion last week and spent the excursion, along with the other dad that we traveled with, talking like a pirate. That night while waiting for our dinner reservation we spent our time making pirate dad jokes. I'm pretty sure only two of us thought we were funny.
