Some kind of Wednesday

You know, it's like Some Kind of Wonderful, except without the awesome John Hughes music. And with more despair. But fewer acid washed jeans.

I was originally going to make this a Wordless Wednesday, except I realized there were too many words I actually wanted to include, which would make the title completely useless, so I guess, instead, I'll call it Wordy Wednesday. Or Chatty Wednesday. Or I'm Over Explaining Things Again Wednesday. Or Shut The Fuck Up Already Wednesday.

Any of those will do.

This post is dedicated to Scott, who blogs at Dads Who Change Diapers, because on Tuesday morning when I was tweeting about how nauseous I felt because I was so goddamn tired, he was the first person to mention schadenfreude. He was also the only person to mention schadenfreude. And then he didn't judge me for probably spelling nauseous wrong, which I really appreciate. (Have you voted for him yet, in the whatever thing it is that he wants votes for? You totally should; it's really important.) Also because I told him I would dedicate this post to him, and then something again about schadenfreude. I don't know, I was really tired that morning.....

This is how my Monday night went, while hubs slept blissfully alone on the couch downstairs because he had to be up at 6:00am and he didn't want to bother me (you'll see the irony of that as you get to the end).

I took the blanket off of us by the 5th picture here so that you could see the body positioning we had going on, so just pretend the blanket is still there. Use your imagination, dammit.

LMFAO! And here I was feeling so alone last night as I was slowly swept to the side of my bed. Now, I can just think of you!

Wait... laying awake in bed and thinking of you is kind of creepy, isn't it?

Um... NO. Not... at all.... :|
You need either a nap during school hours (although there's still the cat problem) or just come to terms with how desirable you are to be with in bed...

I don't seem to have much of a choice there
Claim the couch next time! I have one chihuahua. One. Tiny. Dog. She scoots me over to the very edge of my bed and when I hop over her for more room, she edges me to the other side. She likes to touch me at all times, I guess. Can't wait for the kiddos.

With the simple drawings, you were able to create a nice and interesting blog.

With the simple editing, I was able to turn your spam comment into just a weird and inane comment. :)
Bwaahhhh!!!! I would like to say I don't know what you're talking about but then I'd be lying.

Here, have some of my coffee.

Thank you... GULP
Haha! The one-eye-open drawing made almost made me spit out my coffee.

I'm giggling at my kitchen table. This is hilarious. I mean, I'm not laughing AT you... okay, I actually AM laughing at you. Bwahahahaha

At least I wasn't up giving any enemas during that time.

BUUUUUUUUUUUUURN.
I have no cats. But the kids... my God, this is exactly like my nights lately. How does one get their two year old to STAY OUT OF THEIR DAMN BED?!

BAHAHA! Seriously, lmaoshmsfoaidmt (laughing my ass of so hard my sombrero fell off and i dropped my taco).
Oh, you're welcome :)
Love the post. Sometimes I really miss that my older kids don't come into our bed anymore. But then I think about times like the one you show above, and I couldn't be happier.

This happens in my home every single night. Hubby gets home late from work, sleeps on the couch, and I end up with TWO 2yr olds fighting with each other and me for room in the bed. I haven't had more than 4hrs of sleep per night for the last 6 weeks.
Totally feel your pain, Lady.
lol. How do you find the strength to blog on a consistent basis? I guess we're lucky that after a full day, Jacob can't stand the sight of us. He hasn't slept in our bed for who knows how long.

my favorite parts are where child1 is spooning you and how both kids are smiling the whole time. AWESOME.

How do they do that? I would say you were overpowered by the sheer numbers, but even one child can displace me in the bed. We're bigger than they are! Is this some kind of super power?
My recent post So what is second base, anyway?

I miss kids that are not even crawling out of the bed.
I was really expecting one of the cats to be sleeping on your head by the end of it all! Your facial expressions are priceless!

ROFL! Oh my...that could have been my drawing....I love the last one. That is the type of crap my oldest pulls every morning at 5:30...gaah!
Hahaha, niiiice. My night was a lot like that, only with 50% fewer children and cats and significantly more vomit.
My recent post It's Okay
I had heard that 3 a.m. was the Witching Hour, but I never would have imagined that had anything to do with Mr Bill crawling into your bed.(srsly, your kid is Mr Bill, just admit it!)
If you could draw a few more stick babies (who also enjoy the sideways & upside down positions), you'd have a lovely portrait of my bed. A nice addition would be my husband sleeping with his head on the nightstand. The progression should end with me sleeping in one of the kids' bunks with the damn dog. Bunch of brats.

PS
This post made me laugh out loud. Love it!
My recent post The Cake Beast
Never fails. Kids and pets hog the bed holding helpless parents hostage. I think the upside is
Too funny - probably because I've been there. I think I'll miss it one day though. It also makes me think of how things are so different from our childhood. Growing up, my parents' room was off limits. If you managed to be allowed in, it was like being in a museum - you treaded lightly and made sure you didn't touch anything. And God help the person who even sat on my mother's bedspread. You couldn't even look at it without hearing, "get away from my bedspread!"

Hahhaha how nice for HIM. Next time, you get the couch. :P

This is me every night minus the cats. Should I get some cats to make the picture complete?
My recent post There's No Holding Hands In Zumba!
I become insane with anger when the husband snores or breathes too loud, so I can't imagine the homicides that would ensue if that would happen in my bed.
I'm starting to think I like sleep far too much to ever have kids.
My recent post My Hero
LMFAO. This post is pure awesomeness.
My recent post Weighted Blanket Giveaway
We let our first sleep with us. My wife wanted our first dog to sleep with us when we first got married. No one sleeps with us EVER! It's time to cut the embilical cord.

Those sure are some smug smiles on the kitties. You are pretty saintly, because I'd have definitely nudged the sleeping ones until they either woke up or fell off the bed. I'm a bad mom in the middle of the night. Let me sleep or no one sleeps. Thanks for turning your pain into yucks for us. You're kind of contributing to shadenfreude, if you think about it.

Bwhahahahaha! I actually have tears in my eyes because a) this is hilarious and b) I am exhausted and thus giddy from exhaustion after yet another night of being chased around my bed by the toddler! Sigh.
