Secret Agent Man is in Mexico. Or so he says. Big Rich and Mymomma are in Boston. And Carronin in is Las Vegas. It ain't right for all my people to be out of town at the same time.
But, they didn't leave me completely alone. I have the 6 kids that are attached to these 12 feet. I bow down to the mommies who feed this many everyday! You know who you are. Carronin left me with these books to keep me company too. I like to try to picture the characters in my head. Remember the show Roswell? I imagine them to look like the teenage aliens on that show. Although I know it doesn't bode well with the authors description, when I think of hyper-sensitive, hyper-hormonal teenagers with super powers this is what I come up with .

Attention Good Mail Girls; I am way overdue to thank super cutie Lauren for the "Office Supplies." Thank you! You made me smile and laugh. Also, it was Ribbon Rock Star's birthday yesterday. Show her some love!
Dawson says, "Is it true? Is Jen really dead?"
I'm sorry you're lonely. Should I send you a few more kids to make sure you have absolutely NO alone time??
ReplyDeleteOKay I love the picture of Dawson! Hilarious.
ReplyDeleteAnd those t hree books are all the buzz in our book club right now. Not that they are going to be our book club books, but some of the ladies are really into them. I'm going to have to check them out!
All alone. So sad. How about you hang out with Rug's Bug? You could cry, and she could feed you onion rings and stroke your hair. Better yet, maybe I should have Rug's come to my house.
ReplyDeleteFunny how you can be surrounded with children and still be lonely at times.
ReplyDelete*sigh*
You are a rockin' sista for taking on the brood! Always on top of things! What is up with all the vacations....and they are not taking an Annie along! Whhhhat!!
ReplyDeleteI'd sure like to meet that cutie Lauren girl.
ReplyDeleteWhen Dawson makes that face, I feel like slapping him and telling him to man up.
ReplyDeleteI won't do the same with you.
Is that HAIR on that kid's legs??? Please tell me that's Carronin's oldest.
Ahhhh... Rug's Bug's onion rings... a thing of beauty.
You are nice to watch the kids while everyone is out gallavanting (sp?) without you. At least you have Bella and Edward to keep you company.
ReplyDeleteI used to watch Roswell...I loved that main alien guy. He was/is attractive.
ReplyDeleteI am so glad you liked the good mail! There is more where that came from...
i'm sorry you're lonely! those books should be good at keeping you company, though. and you are fabulous to take on more kids!
ReplyDeleteBut just think....soon, someone will owe you a few days off sans chillens! Isn't that a comfort? I wish my sibs were closer so we could do that swappy thing. As it is, my parents are really good, but they don't have anyone I can babysit in return.
ReplyDeleteSometimes I wish I was lonely... lol...
ReplyDeleteI'm sure the time will fly by and everyone will be back before you know it!
I pre-read Twilight for my daughter (who is currently experiencing all the drama that 9th grade in a public school has to offer) in only two or three weeks - a dizzying speed for recreational bathroom reading. She finished it over a weekend.
ReplyDeleteI haven't actually acknowledged how much I liked the book - out loud - except for buying the other two. I even ended up trusting the author enough to concede first reading rights to the daughter (who, in the interest of speed, threatened to lace my food with laxatives), and wasn't disappointed.
Dude I remember that episode of Dawson's Creek. Dawson had just sent Joey away to be with Pacey and he started crying because his heart was broken. Then the next clip showed Jack at his house and he had a bonding moment with his dad while Jessica Andrew's "I will Be There For You" played in the background.
ReplyDeleteI'm sorry you are lonely. *hug*
I hope you enjoy those books. I can't wait to read them,I've heard a lot of good things about them.
:(
ReplyDeleteI'm on my way baby.... I'll be there in four hours. No worries.
Well I was all prepared to offer to come take you to lunch, but then I saw the last post and realized that I can't get there in 4 hours.
ReplyDeletePerhaps another time.
How sweet of you to take on the kiddos and sacrifice so your fam can vacation without you. You deserve the best sis award for that! ;P
Thank you. Thank you. You are all too kind. I don't deserve this much adulation.
ReplyDeleteI would also like to thank McDonalds, Wendy's, and Taco Bell for their support these past few days.
Let it never be said AGAIN that Aunt Annie starves kids!
I hate when my people go away too! What a woman, feeding the masses:)
ReplyDeleteI posted about Twilight today too, and casting...hmmm.
Roswell...I can definitely picture at least a couple of the characters as Roswell characters.
ReplyDeleteI must be the only person in the world who hasn't read the "Twilight" books. Guess I need to get with the program!
ReplyDeleteShould I send you the much ballyhooed Mexican Casserole recipe to feed all them ninos?
ReplyDeleteJames Vand Der Beek looks like one of the squishy, foamy head things you squeeze to relieve stress.
ReplyDeleteHey, you still have your little bro. to hang out with, right??? ;) Yay, for The Office being on tonight! You can hang out with your friends from Dunder Miflin instead! :D
ReplyDeleteIf you read those books as fast as Ch****** read them, they won't keep you company for long. I haven't read them yet, but they come HIGHLY recommended--Ch****** lives for them and talks about them all the time!! and can't wait for the next one to come out. Don't tell her I told you this, but when she got book #2 for Christmas, she cried.
ReplyDeleteI still can't get over that picture from the guy on Dawson's Creek...it is so pitiful.
ReplyDeleteHear that, Dawson?! Nobody likes a whiner.
ReplyDeleteI love the feet picture. It does look like you are in good company!
ReplyDeleteThanks again Annie for watching my kids while I was gone. You're the best.
ReplyDeleteKnow how awesome Annie is, people? She and Pedro are on a crusade to save a pre-teen girl from the heartbreak of forehead pimples.
ReplyDeleteAnd she spent six bucks in postage to do it too.
Annie, thank you sooooooo much. Lauren got the stuff and she's all excited. If it wouldn't embarrass her so bad, I'd like to do some before and after pictures.
:(
ReplyDeleteBut I loves you! :)
OMGosh, I'm so glad I never wathed Dawson's Creeps, look at that face, what a wuss. Who is Jen?
Bet the kids are having a ball.
And by ball I mean great food at Auntie Annie.
