Celebrity Baby Names....What were they drinking?

Because I am so random ....

Let's dish on baby names today.

BABY NAMES?

Hmmmm.....
Does that mean . . . . ? ! ? !

Uh NO!

It's just me being "RAN-DOM".

But

I do have bloggy friends that are expecting. Maybe we can come up with some great name ideas for them?

Like "Honey B" or "Poppy Honey"?

ok, maybe not

We are not talking about BORING EVERYDAY NORMAL names.....
We are talking about celebrity baby names.

:Cringe:

Ok, I'll admit...Some of them are pretty creative but WHY would you do that to your child?

Poppy Honey? 

Yeah, that's a kid's real name. Ya know TV chef Jamie Oliver? Well, that is his kid's name.

FOR REAL

He's also got a kiddo named Daisy Boo.

UH HUH

I couldn't make this stuff up even if I tried.

What do you think of the name Speck Wildhorse?

Oh come on.

I know you had that one picked out for your lil munchkin.

You probably decided against it since John Mellencamp named his daughter that, right?

But wait there's even wilder names out there . . .

Fifi Trixibelle, Peaches Honeyblossom, and  Pixie, groovy eh?

They all belong to the same couple, Bob Geldof and Paula Yates.

This may sound harsh but they kind of sound like dog names.

HERE FIFI....

Err I mean FIFI TRIXIBELLE

What do you think?

Do you know someone with a crazy sounding name?

I know there are some crazy names out there.

I can't even pronounce or spell some of them.

Heck, I don't even think the poor kids can spell them either.

Ok, here's another question.

Do you have a weird name? COME ON, we won't make fun of you (well, maybe).

Would you consider any of the names that I mentioned above? If so, WHY? 

Are you flippin' crazy or something? 

Geesh!

Come on....

Tell me some names of actual people that you know.

Ya know, WEIRD NAMES

Give us some juicy story about them too.

Ok?

(kidding)

or maybe I'm not?

Oh and if you are pregnant, Can I name your baby?

I saw a listing on ebay once where they were letting people bid and the highest bidder would actually name the baby.

Ok, that was my random thought for the day.

Carry on

I've flipped my channel

Anyone catch Dancing with the Stars last night?

(insert blank stare here)

I'm glad that my kids were in another room when that chick was parading around on the dance floor in her bra and panties.

&
Why were all the ladies wearing sheets ?

 I'm still not diggin' Brooke Burke either.  

*click*

Poor Jack Bauer. He's has no luck when it comes to the ladies.

I never liked her anyway. 

*click*


Oh, look....

They're painting. Two oldies are painting together. So stinkin' sweet : ) OH WAIT...

TOO.MANY.PAINT.FUMES.

WHAT?

NOW?

because ya just never know when the mood will hit

MY EYES!!!!

I guess there will be a lot of painting in my future.

*You can call me granny goodtimes too!

hmmm...

I also have to get a couple of bathtubs.
Yes, a couple of bathtubs will be needed.
I'm going to place them out there in the backyard. 

Ya know, so we can lay there naked and stare off in space like all other old people do.

Yep,That's what you do when you get old.

It says so on the commercial.

I just hope no one sneaks up behind us.

Well, hold the phone...

That is, if I actually make it to that point.

With all these crazy side effects and meds these days.

Sure thing....

exploding "bowel movements", flesh eating bacteria, the urge to knaw your arm off on contact...

I can handle those!

Just take care of my pesky allergies.

The rest I will deal with.

What?

I'll lose a couple of toes and my eye will be out of whack?

That's ok.

I can hang.

Just tend to my high cholesterol.

*click*

SHAM WOW!
I still kind.of. want one of those. 

And there ya have it ladies and gents....
My random thoughts aka Mumbo Jumbo for the day (AS SEEN ON TV EDITION).


Hey!
Don't mute me.

My thoughts are now your thoughts

I'm craving a Nathan's hotdog like no one's business.

I've been craving a Nathan's hotdog for a week now.

You would think if one were craving something THIS BADLY then surely it would have been added to the grocery list over the weekend, right?

Yeahhh.....NO!

THIS IS TORTURE.

There's a stray beagle/mutt dog running around the neighborhood. She is in heat. The two male dogs are fighting over her. It's quite interesting to watch. (Not the baw chicka waw waw part, they know better than to do that in front of me.) It's just interesting watching how each dog reacts around her. It's like watching humans "date".

I'm not weird.

Maybe I just need to get out more?

Ok, perhaps I am weird.

It's still interesting.

I tried to watch Dancing with the Stars last night.

I was horrified to say the least.

Brooke Burke as a host? uhhhhh...

That was like watching paint dry.

Kate Gosselin looked terrified.

&

Pamela Anderson?

I have no words.

3 different people searched for BIG STRAWS yesterday and landed on my blog.

(hehe SORRY!)

Ok, this pedigree commercial makes me giggle:

He's not just a GOOD pooper but an optimum one!

which leads me to my next "thought"

See that?

It's probably one of the best darn packages UPS has ever delivered to my house.

I blogged for that.

UH HUH

I did.

I have no shame.

I've already told ya that I would sell out for 3 things :

toilet paper

brownies

&

aspirin

A mommy blogger's got to do what a mommy blogger's got to do.

Going Frugal....because it's the new COOL

I'm serious about the "going frugal" part though.
Actually, I'm serious about all of it....
which is kind of weird

Anyhoo
Frugal tips?
Frugal blogs?

Coupons?

Leave me a link!


And now that I think about it...
Maybe I'm not meant to be a nerd?
Maybe I'm just supposed to shower them with love.
Ya know?
I could totally be that chick on Can't Buy Me Love.
*fast forward to the part where she was actually nice to him though*
Yeah, she befriended that nerd Patrick Dempsey and he turned into a big deal.

I have found my purpose! 

I accept paypal. My id is the same as my email addy.
what? Isn't that how it worked in the movie?


or maybe not?
Where is that chick now?

MUMBO JUMBO

Why do my fingers smell like onion?
I guess it's better than my armpits smelling like one.

Why do Dora's parents let her roam the streets alone?
Do they not watch the news??
Oh, wait....she does have a monkey with her.
I guess it's ok then.

I bet Gerald stinks. (Sid the Science Kid)
He just looks like "the stinky kid".
I am also willing to bet that he has a snotty nose a lot.

can't.quit.sniffing.my.fingers.

My feet are always cold.
They still don't stink though.

The princess likes to put her foot in brother's face and say:
"Smell it...Smell it....TAKE IT...TAKE IT".

She says that's her SPECIAL MOVE.

It makes me laugh.
It makes hunky hubby roll his eyes.

My cat only drinks water from the toilet.
NEVER in her bowl
Is that odd?

Sometimes I feel as if I am talking like Charlie Brown's momma.

Why do my kids look at me like THAT?

WHAT?

ugh....WHATEVER!

I like to dance.
I sometimes make up my own moves.
The princess is the only one that will dance with me.
Ok, I take that back....
Lil Man can groove on demand also.
We call it "shaking our stinky tails".
It's not so clever looking when I type it out though.
It's kind of ODD.
Stinky Tails?
hmmm

Moving along . . .

flippin' onion smell will not go away

Do you think it's toxins coming through my skin?
Or whatever the "fancy term" is?

I've always wanted to be "cleansed".
Once, I thought about buying those sticky foot pads.
Ya know, the ones from the "AS SEEN ON TV" commercials?
Yeah those.
They were supposed to remove all kinds of toxins from your body.
I then saw a "DOES IT REALLY WORK" segment on my local news and they said not to waste my money.
So I didn't.

I love my Dyson.
Have I mentioned that before?
I enjoy looking at all the junk it sucks up.
I tend to suck up everything in sight.
NOT.EVEN.KIDDING.
One day I sucked up a sock.
Another day I sucked up some Littlest Pet Shop toys.
I almost sucked up Big Girl's toe one time.
You should see my kids run around when I turn that thing on!
Funny Stuff.

The kids asked me what was for dinner.
I replied: I dunno, what are you making?

They always give me the strangest looks.

The Princess asks me all the time "When will lunch be ready?"
I reply : "When it's ready."
I give her the SAME EXACT REPLY every day yet she still asks the question.
I don't get it.

I'm still curious as to why SPEIDI would follow me on twitter.
(yeah, both of them now)
I'm trying to think....
Have I ever dissed them?
I don't think I have.
Conan has.
Ok, half of the country has.
Maybe I should start dissing them?
I could start a twitter war or something.
Muahahahahaha

I've never heard Heidi Montag sing.

I just found out who Justin Bieber is.
Not my cup of tea but then again, I'm not 9.

I used to love New Kids on The Block.
(Danny, Donnie, Joe, Jon and Jordan)
that's all of their names in abc order

This onion smell is driving me insane.
Maybe it's my nose?

Whatever it is...
It's wiggity wack!

I make the FLY LADY cringe

I sweep my kitchen floor every day.

AND

Every single day, I sweep right past this clear plastic looking thing.
I also sweep around some plastic looking grapes that are underneath the breakfast room's table.
This has been going on for WEEKS.

WHY?

I honestly have no clue.
ahem....lazy
Surely, someone is going to claim these items, right?
They are going to pick them up JUST LIKE THEY BROUGHT them in here.
They are going to pick them up and take them back to where they belong.

So I leave them there.
I mean, I sweep around them.
Sometimes I even move them around with my broom so I can sweep under them.
What I haven't done is PICK THEM UP.
Until today . . .
I don't even know what the clear plastic looking thing is. I have stared at it numerous times and I still don't know what it is.

I actually picked these two items up and tossed them in the garbage.
It only took me a few weeks though.

Anyone else do this?
come on, be honest
Do you dust AROUND items instead of UNDER them?

So, I do all of the above . . .
HOWEVER
Ya know what annoys the HEE HAW outta me?
Going to my grandmother's house to see that someone has painted.
NO
That doesn't annoy me.
They paint alright.
BUT
They painted around the picture frames and wall hangings....not UNDER them.
UH HUH
That annoys me.
BUT
Sweeping or Dusting around objects does not annoy me.

Seriously, think of how much harder it is to paint around a photo frame! edging is a nightmare

hmmmmm
Oh, and remember that SOCK ??
Someone finally picked it up after a few days.
It wasn't me..... I vacuumed right around it.

Random Thoughts Tuesday

So, I walked outside today and (TOTALLY) felt like Snow White or one of those other princesses that talk and sing with animals.

You see, I was going to take a dirty diaper (HEY, "IT" Happens) to the garbage can and as soon as I turned the corner there were three squirrels and two bluebirds frolicking around the trees. I almost broke out into a song followed with a little jig but then I heard the kids screaming so my fairytale was over.
I am not really that good at singing anyway.
However, I can bust a move (more like bust a gut) with the best of them.
Just sayin'
Oh, and no that wasn't my diaper I was tossing.
It was the kiddo's that I am babysitting.
**

I have eaten 12 Snickers candybars (full sized) in 9 days.
If you do the math....I had 2 on some days.
I did not share either.
I feel a little guilty.
(about eating that many NOT the sharing part)
**

Speaking of OINK OINK...
We had breakfast for dinner last night.
I cooked bacon.
I also cooked sausage.
I am so glad that you can't get the "Swine flu" from eating pork.
I would hate to give up pork.

Oh, and since I mentioned "SWINE FLU", check out this hilarious video from IJustine.
She cracks me up.
I ain't afraid of NO SWINE!!

Random Thoughts Tuesday

Ok, why does it seem like I have been busy but nothing has been accomplished?
I worked on this house all day yesterday.....
Can you tell today?
NOOOO!

Why do kids want to put their faces and hands all over clean glass/windows?
I mean seriously....
As soon as I walk away there they are with their noses pressed on my window. Is there something in Windex that kids can not resist? hmmm Maybe they add some sort of chemical that draws kids towards it. The more the kids put their noses on the window, the more we have to spray.....and if we spray it all then we are out and then when we are out we have to BUY MORE!
AHHH....I am SO onto you, Windex!
**

Speaking of windows, Our cat ran into one of the living room windows yesterday. She saw a bird and jumped from the loveseat right SMACK into the window. She hit so hard that it knocked her back onto the floor. I thought it was pretty funny!
*Dumb cat*
**

The kids found a baby turtle last week. They also LOST a baby turtle last week. Oh, and they lost it in my garage. Yep....there is a baby turtle wandering around in my garage. I sure hope that baby turtle doesn't grow up to be a huge man eating creature. Ya know, I saw something like that on SciFi once. It was not pretty either.
**
How's this for random?

Surely someone needs a nose shower gel dispenser.

Random Thoughts Tuesday

So, I thought I was having a nightmare this morning.....

I heard chainsaws, grinders, yelling and for a very slight second I could envision a ugly man with no teeth and tons of scars on his face chasing after me.

Oh wait.....

It was only my neighbor (he has teeth) getting his trees trimmed.

Yes, the tree trimmers pulled up in VERY LOUD trucks at 7:15 am. They have been going at those trees for 3 hours now.

I have been sitting here "thinking" or actually "wondering".

I wonder if you have to have some sort of fancy certificate to trim trees? Are there special classes on tree trimming?

I mean, I sure wouldn't want JUST ANYONE trimming my trees.

I have been peeking out the window and watching the limbs fall. They are only falling in one direction so that is why I assume there is some sort of training involved.

Lord knows, if I were to trim some trees they would be falling just about everywhere.

Also, tree trimmers yell a lot.

Heck....they yell more than me AND THAT IS A LOT.

I keep hearing "HEY!" "WAIT!" "NOOOOO!" and my favorite one "WOAHHH THERE MAN!"

**

Did I tell you that I won the brittish lottery again? Yep, I sure did!

Well, LINDA didn't actually win it but Ms. MY TRENDY TYKES did.

I assume it is really for me since they emailed me 4 times.

They only ask for my social security number, checking acct info WITH routing number and first born child. As soon as I give that to them I AM RICH!!!!!!!

***

I ate a milky way candybar for breakfast this morning. I don't feel one bit guilty but I do feel guilty for eating the two pieces of toast right after.

:Sigh:

Ok, whatcha' got today? I would love to hear your RANDOM thoughts. Visit The Un Mom and link up!

Random Thoughts Tuesday

Well, It's Spring Break around here. Of course that just means MORE kids at my house this week. (kids that are not even mine)

:Sigh:

As a homeschooling mom, I definately can't take part in the excitement over Spring Break and holiday breaks. I wish I could get a "SPRING BREAK" by myself.

Any wet t-shirt contests going on???

Uh, YEAH...

*

Our next door neighbor totally put us on the spot the other day. He said they are planning on selling their house soon (Good luck on THAT) and he wanted to know if they could leave their dog here with us?

Y'all should have seen my hubby's face! ROFL

This is not some itty bitty cute dog either. It's more like a huge STINKY one that fights with the other neighbor's dog and chases down every car in sight.

The neighbor said it would save them the hassle since they will be renting for awhile.

WHO DOES THIS?

*

Oh, we were at my dad's house this weekend and BIG GIRL was being nosey as usual and came across a can of sardines.

She wanted them.

She got them.

She ate them yesterday.

I made her eat them outside in the yard (FAR AWAY FROM THE DOOR).

I then made her change clothes and brush her teeth like 10 times.

ICKY!

What 10 year old kid eats sardines anyway??

*

That's all I have today.....

Random Thoughts Tuesday

Can someone please tell me WHY the TODAY SHOW needs 4 whole hours on television???
Seriously, couldn't all their nonsense be aired on a 1 hour program?
Also, did anyone catch the DOOCE interview? I didn't when it aired but saw it over at Mom Dot yesterday.
I have read Dooce's blog a couple of times but to be honest it never really made me want to come back for more.
However, I do think it is pretty cool that she has made it to the top.....really I do.
ANY-HOOOO
Did anyone catch Dancing with the Stars last night?
Whatcha' think??

Oh, and to end this post today.....
These toys really hurt when you step on them.
I am going to have to say that they hurt even more than these do.

Just sayin'

For more randomness visit The Un Mom.

Random Thoughts Tuesday

Well, it's Tuesday. Not much I can say for Tuesday's.....

I mean Monday is the day everyone seems to hate.
Wednesday is hump day *Near the end
Thursday....well, there are a couple of tv shows to watch that night
Friday, AH! Everyone loves Friday.
The weekend is the weekend.

But Tuesday is rather bland.
Random Thoughts Tuesday will liven it up, right?
Disclaimer: MY THOUGHTS ARE COMPLETELY RANDOM today.
I have had a lot of time to "think" about crazy things this week.
You see, my dear hubby has been on vacation for 9 days. My computer time was non-exsistent BECAUSE HE HAS BEEN HOGGING IT! So, I got to come up with all kinds of "Weird-ness" in my mind.
**

Let's start with Hamburgers. Now, I read that the NAME hamburger may have come from Hamburg, Germany. It's still odd to me that there is no HAM on this BURGER but we still call it a HAM BURGER but why do we drop the HAM to make it a CHEESEBURGER? Why not say "Cheese" Hamburger, please! ??
**
Here's something else I came to realize this past week. I like cereal......A LOT! I also like my cereal soggy. Now I have always liked my cereal soggy but never gave it much THOUGHT until this week. ODD, huh? It's just something about the texture.
Hubby thinks I am weird.

**
Ya know what drives me nuts?
BOTTLED WATER
I just can't fathom why anyone would waste $1.00 on bottled water. I mean seriously....
You can get all of this for the same price:
High Fructose corn syrup
Caramel color
Phosphoric acid
Caffeine
Sodium
Carbs
Sugar
AND CARBONATED WATER (the good kind)
**
Ya know what else I find odd?
Most of my thoughts this week seem to focus on the same thing.
FOOD!
I need to get a hobby.

Random Thoughts Tuesday

I have come to the conclusion that I spend too much time online.
:Gasp: Say it aint so.....
WHY?
Well, because I literally have to stop myself sometimes when I am speaking to friends and family.
*You know the IRL kind.
I have to stop myself from blurting out LOL or OMG! or BRB.
Yes, people I want to use internet lingo when talking to REAL PEOPLE.
(not that you guys aren't real or anything. oh, you know what I mean.)
Do you ever do this??
Am I just weird? **Don't answer that.

Side note: I can recall my first chat board sessions (Good ole AOL days).
I had just quit work to become a SAHM and decided to explore the net. I joined some pregnancy chatrooms and started seeing LOL everywhere. I had no idea what it meant at the time and of course would never ask. I mean....I wanted to be in the COOL CROWD, ya know?
I started using it . . . A LOT!
I would sign my name in emails like this :
LOL, Linda
Yeah for awhile I did that. (DON'T JUDGE!)
I did eventually find out what LOL meant.
LAUGH OUT LOUD
What I thought: lots of love
So, there for awhile I was known as "LAUGH OUT LOUD" Linda
now I am just known for using . . . . . . . . . .'s a little too much.
I guess you can call me . . . . dot dot dot Linda now.

*side note to the side note: that link up there says you can use LOL for Lots of Love too! I am not THAT crazy afterall.

Tales from the bathroom .....my random thoughts

So, I am sitting in the bathroom last night (ahem.....using it) and once I finish I glance over to the toilet paper roller thingy and notice that there is NO TOILET PAPER. There is an empty roll and then another empty roll on top but NO TOILET PAPER. I look beside the toilet.....none. I look underneath the cabinet .....NONE. However, there was a plastic bag under the sink and I remembered that there was a roll in that plastic bag.

SIDE NOTE: The princess is constantly dropping full rolls of toilet paper into the toilet once she is done. This one particular time she dropped it in a clean toilet so I told her to place it in a bag so that it could dry. HEY! You never know when you may actually need that toilet paper.
((DESPERATE TIMES and all !))

Well, this was one of those times. I had to use the toilet paper that had been dropped into the toilet and dried out. Have you ever use toilet paper like that? Well, let's just say that it is not the softest stuff to use on your tushie. OK, IT'S NOT SOFT AT ALL !

You see I would not even have to use this ROUGH STUFF on my tushie if there would have been toilet paper on the toilet paper holder. I mean HOW HARD IS IT TO PUT A ROLL OF TOILET PAPER BACK ON THE HOLDER?
My family can go through the trouble of locating a new roll of toilet paper only to place it right beside the toilet, on the counter or even right on top of the EMPTY ROLL!!
It never ends up where it is supposed to be though.

I mean seriously? I know there are some of you out there that prefer the toilet paper facing a certain way. UP, DOWN? I don't care ......as long as it is ON THE HOLDER.

**Please tell me my family is not the only ones that do this. I don't want to feel all alone and stuff.

Ay Yi Yi!
Join me next week because I may just be discussing the clothes being placed BESIDE THE HAMPER and not actually in it.

Random Tuesday Thoughts

Sometimes I have these "Random" thoughts pop up in my head. I mean "RAN-DOM"! Sometimes they are so RANDOM that they are just plain weird like the time I was thinking of words and how WORDS came to be words......like "THE". Who came up with that word? See, Random and weird.

Anyhoo.....The Un Mom has a great meme going on over at her blog on Tuesdays. See that button up there? Click on it for more info.

As for me, RIGHT NOW:
I am sitting here wondering why my little princess has to take off every article of clothing when she goes to the bathroom.
Also, why is she asking me for chocolate at 8:55am? Doesn't she know that only MOMMIES are supposed to eat candy this early? PLUS that is MY candy she is holding in her hands.
She is about to start a WAR and she has no clue....
Those are just some of my RANDOM THOUGHTS on this very cloudy Tuesday morning.
