Because You Gotta Have Priorities


So, my mom will be flying into town tomorrow to spend four days with me, Scope and Gwen. Isn’t that nice?

*curling into a ball on the floor*

This will be her first trip to Chicago and her first time seeing our new home. Isn’t that wonderful?

Scope and I have been feverishly and furiously trying to get the condo ready (aka cleaning and decorating) before she gets here…. in *glancing nervously at the clock and shuddering* just over 24 hours from now. Isn’t that peachy?

*pounding my fists on the floor, wailing, “why? WHY? WHHHYYYYY?????” and totally ticking off the neighbors…. again*

And, yet, with all the numerous chores still splattered all over my to-do list, I can’t seem to tear my sorry, slackerized self away from picnik.com, where I keep horrifically Halloweenifying perfectly innocent family portraits.

Like this.


And this.


Mom will totally understand when she gets here and her bed sheets aren’t clean yet…. r-r-right?

Probably NOT, but she's not gonna be nearly as pissed as the people at Adobe Photoshop are !

HA! Love the pic of Gwen and her friends! Your mom will be fine, you can always send her downstairs to stay with the neighbors!

Just tell her that you're too busy having s*x before work, on Scope's lunch hour, after work, etc., to worry about washing the sheets. She'll understand. : P

I love the photos!
(clean sheets are over-rated)

Just start off your welcome with the comment, "Oh you weren't planning on staying here were you"?

Everything is better after that!

UMMM, can't pick your family. Just know that you will be rolling your eye's mashing your teeth together, taking LOTS of deep breaths and finding yourself with head in hand for the next couple of days.

No big whoop.

Do a pic of her with you guys, and she'll have to be so intrigued that she won't notice the not-so-fresh sheets. Distraction is key.

You are just adorable! Loving the zombie pics!

And just remember...it's only temporary...this too shall pass! You've got Scope to give you big hugs to get you through it!
