All of my friends who think that I'm blessed, they don't know my head is a mess

I'm cranky. Like... bad cranky. You don't need to know the specifics. Unless you want to know. And then I still won't tell you. (call me!)

All I want to do is sit on my couch and eat the food I just made (for myself, and only myself, because I'm the only person in my house who actually eats what I cook. I'm a goddamn good cook, too, you ungrateful little shits) and watch Dexter (and NOT Jake and the Go Fuck Yourself Pirates) and not have to share my computer with a child looking over my shoulder ("oooh! Is that a kitty! Wait, scroll up, I want to see the kitty! AWWWWW Look at the kitty!! So cute! Wait, I want to keep looking at the kitty. Go back to the kitty!") and not have to tell somebody what the exact time is on the hour every hour ("No! It's not Six Fifty Four, it's Six Fifty FIVE.") and not have anybody screaming my name from the other room ("MAAAAAAAMMMAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA") and not have to do anything at all for as long as I want.

I was just re-reading This is Not that Blog, because I like to go back to my favorite blogs and re-read them, especially ones with cartoons, because they never get old to me (also Hyperbole and a Half. Pure gold, every time), and I thought I'd try my hand at drawing.



Yeah. That's what I thought.

Anyway, here's a Song of the Day, it's where the title of this post came from. She's awesome.

I know where ur coming from. I don't have kids, so I don't have Jake and the Motherfucking Pirates to deal with, but I do have Ungrateful Hubby to deal with from time to time. Most of the time he's good, but he's been in a mood this week and I'm just over it. Made dinner the other night (he saidhe was hungry so I cooked) then when I said it was ready it was all "Oh, it's too hot out, I can't eat anything hot." WTF? Then why did you hint around for me to make you something u dumb twat? Hell, I ate my dinner and put up the leftovers and went right back to my twitteratti's and Glee. Ignored his ass! So, I feel ya gurl. Gotta take time for u!

::sigh:: I feel just like you. Today I'm telling myself that the unspeakably mean things one of my kids said to me last night don't really mean anything. When does camp start?

Email me your phone number.... Do you text?
The other day, a friend of mine asked me if I watched Parks and Recreation or Glee. I answered no- I'm only allowed to watch suck-ass cartoons while the kids are awake, and I'm too tired to watch anything after they go to bed. Life is fun, WHEE!

Yes. That. What you said.
Preaching to the converted on this one!

Holy hell but that is my life too often lately . . . way too often lately. I have been known to actually cover my ears to stop hearing the incessant call of "Mommmaaaaaaa".

This morning I was seriously contemplating just running out of the house and leaving everybody to fend for themselves
I tried that once. It didn't work. My older kids and husband were waiting for dinner when I got back and simultaneously got mad at me for going out to eat at Olive Garden by myself.
They didn't even call to see where I was. Only when they got hungry.
My recent post I Heart you BA Martin
That's not right
Jillsmo, I have to tell you, when you are down and in a funk, just think of how many of us love you, and how many of us you make laugh.

Think of the community you've built here, and how you've made the autism spectrum less lonely.

Think about that.

Thanks, you (((((YOU))))))
Are you on your period? Yeah? Me too...

Seriously--I hope it gets better and the kid will take "it's almost 5:00" without freaking out as opposed to "it's 4:49PM."

The worst thing you could ever say to that kid is "It's 6ish"
Uhg. I SO know what you mean about cranky.
And I don't have kids, but whenever Hubby calls my name in that long, drawn-out, whiney way, I just yell him name back like a mirror.

You should punch him in the nuts
Yup I'm cranky today as well. And today was my new day to recommit to eating better and working out. It is not going well.
...and this is why I love you. We can be Cranky and Snarky and drunk together haha

oh wait ummm why were you looking at cute kitten pictures on the computer
My latest is a two year old who screams "iPaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaad." I've created a monster. And then Moe pulling books out of the shelf over and over and over and over and over. I could go on, but suffice it to say, I feel your pain.

Ugh! My daughter was invited to a b-day pool party tomorrow during the time I was supposed to go to a parent volunteer luncheon. She received the invite yesterday! I really don't want to run to Target today to get the damn present and cut out of my luncheon early to go to the damn party. I mean really? They couldn't sent the invites out a week ago? The b-day girl cornered my daughter in class this morning BEGGING for her to go because so far, they only have 5 kids coming (she's sharing the party with her twin brother also).

I was forced to say that we'll drop by for a little. Crap! Here's a thought...have your mom do the invites a friggin' week or two in advance if you want people to come! (just because she was last year's Mrs. California doesn't excuse her from the rules). Jeez!

Ok, I feel better now!

Happy to help! :)
You just described exactly the same thing I want... Only I'd probably watch something other than Dexter.
That's why I have headphones and listen to my Zune music while the 4yo watches his mind numbing shows or plays with his toy drill set that I can't stand the noise.
My recent post Please Excuse the Dust
I have given up cooking real food. We either eat frozen stuff or my daughter eats Lunchables for dinner. Sometimes I might deign to pull something out to actually cook, but it's few and far between and then I completely confuse my husband and child.

As soon as my daughter comes home, she immediately shouts "iPppphhhhhhoooooooonnnnnnneeeee!" and becomes agitated when she doesn't get it OMGRIGHTNAO!

Maybe I need help?
I love that song.. even though every time I hear it it reminds me of that train wreck of a musical episode Grey's Anatomy did.

Oh, those were the days. . . I can remember them well. My thing was being so tired every day at 5 PM I just knew I was going to die or cry or throw up if I couldn't just close my eyes for FIVE DAMN MINUTES. There were days that I instructed them to call me by my first name because if I heard "mama" one more time, somebody was going to get stabbed. And now they're grown and out of the house and I sit here and wonder, where the hell did they go?

Why do we live on opposite sides of the country? So unfair.
My recent post What the hell I just published this without a title I blame in-law overdose
I hear you sister. I am so crabby this week (no, I am not on the fucking rag. I am just goddamn cranky!) that I totally hate MYSELF. Seriously. I know I am being a bitch. But I don't care. At motherfucking all. The kids are making me goddamn insane. They bicker, yell and fight with eachother all day.

So. Yeah. Be a bitch and load up on they yummy food you lovingly cooked but no one else will eat. But, can you move your big ass over a little? I wanna sit next to you! *cheers*
My recent post WTF Wednesday
Thank you for getting it - I am planning to send you my rant soon. Here's a preview: I know you are hungry, but instead of just grabbing a spoon and strapping on the feedbag over the pot, could you maybe sit down with me at the fucking table?

You are also correct about Grey's Anatomy - it blows.

Also, Imagination Movers are annoying and Nina is a little tramp.

:) I always thought the same thing about Nina. lol and Grey's Anatomy

My recent post I Heart you BA Martin
What? You mean it's not normal to feel like that all the time?
My recent post Wake Up To Wakefield
A) You look fantastic. B) I recommend taking your food to your car when no one's looking. My family wouldn't think that I might leave the house without alerting the media and it buys me at least a few minutes to make love to my dinner. C) Start making cartoons that involve the mutilation of any of the following "The Fucking Pirates", "The Wonder Pets", "Nemo and all his Bastard Fish Friends", "Cars (that Should do a Thelma and Louise)", etc. While distressing to loved ones, who gives a shit. Love your guts.
My recent post Stop Taking Your Shirt Off
:( want to cry after reading your post. My kids have been shits this week, school is over tomorrow!
My recent post I Heart you BA Martin
So there with you, my friend, so there with you. Husband is away (in MILAN!) for a week and I am alone with the needy masses. This? "and not have to do anything at all for as long as I want." is the thing I never get, and likely WILL never get for as long as I live. OK, um I don't think I'm doing a very good job of cheering you up. Should I send chocolate? Oh, wait, sorry, I can't, I ate it all. ;-)
My recent post G is for Goodbye- Willie
Your drawing caught the essence of flapping perfectly. Other than Allie Brosch, I cannot think of any other blogger who regularly posts cartoons. Not a one. Thank heavens for Hyperbole and a Half or the blogosphere would be completely devoid of funny cartoons..
My recent post Happy Hour
So I saw B.C. in concert last Spring here in Jacksonville along with Vienna Teng. Speechless. She's fucking brilliant. And this song? I still cry EVERY tiime I hear it. Like a little bitch. Ugh.
My recent post To my favorite place- we go…
Love this song. My kids hate it so it brings extra special joy when I can crank it real loud.
