…A is for…
So, I’ve hit a bit of a blogging rut. Have I run out of inspiration? Uh…has the earth stopped spinning? Have I started to like wiping crap? Do pigs fly? (Don’t be too technical with that last one, OKAY?! I mean, do they fly all on their own…sheesh) The answer’s no, in case you got lost in that little rant I just had. My children have not disappeared and I haven’t finished digging my hole yet so, as of right now, life is still going strong. I’m just waiting for life’s most recent events to be funny in the twisted, vaguely inappropriate sense of humor I sport.
Until I find something to write about that pertains to farting, pooping, or boogers (Holy cow, I see a trend here. My sense of humor is morphing into that of my father…and my husband…and my brothers…blast…) I’m going to have letter themes for some of my posts (clarification: theme being whatever I want that has the letter of the day in it). You know, like Sesame Street – Brought to you by the letter: (insert member of the Alphabet here). I’ve read some blogs on the net that are doing this kind of thing and well – I’m going with the masses on this one.
So, today. Crap – “A.” Man! I had a whole list of sickeningly clever themes for half the alphabet but, for some reason, I skipped the “A.”
Ok – here we go: A Redbull a day keeps monster mommy away.
I’ve since my bless-ed four month old is now drinking from a bottle when I deem necessary, I’ve found I’m back to my old ways of drinking Redbull to take the edge off. I’ll go ahead and admit it now: I’m a snob when it comes to energy drinks. Go ahead – judge me. I only like the small cans (just the right amount), I prefer sugar free (because something in my brain says “sugar free” makes it ok), and it can only be Redbull.
I think it’s all in my head, to be completely honest. I mean, I don’t sit hunkered down in the corner snarling, cursing, and batting children away until I drink a Redbull – I can be pretty nice even when I don’t have one. But for some reason, Redbull gives my mood wings (Note: I am in no way compensated by Redbull for the absurd amount of inadvertent advertising going on in this post). Again, it’s pretty much all in my head, I think. I mean, don’t think I’m a “rose colored glasses person” after I drink one because “rose colored glasses” isn’t in my DNA.
I think, I’m done here. But just so you know, I’ve written and reread the word “Redbull” so many times in this post I’m beginning to think I spelled it wrong.
This post was brought to you by the letter A










LOL. To funny. I like the alphabet theme idea. My husband loves Redbull. As I read your post I could actually smell it. Stopping by from SITS.
Isn't it crazy how it sticks with you in one way or another?! You mentioned smelling it and now I do too and my mouth is watering.
Hi Tristan,
I also love my humor dry. You are very patient writing long posts. I saw somewhere that your memory is somewhat affected by either having kids or by your husband. That's so true. Anyway, I like your recipes. I will be back. I know by blog will never be selected because I just post jokes and the likes. Take care. Anne-Marie
Thanks so much, Anne-Marie! I saw the slide show you posted on your most recent post and I really liked it. I'm not trying to get picked for anything either.
I just like to write about my crazy life! Have a great day!!! <3
"A" is car.
dad
You're a dork, dad. Seriously.
Thanks for stopping by! A Red Bull and Shadow of the Almighty what a mix.
Quite a mix, indeed. Have a wonderful day!
I think you've probably had way too much Redbull! How does a cup of coffee sound instead?
Happy Monday!!!
You crack me up. I am loving your new theme.
I am following you now.
I have never tried an energy drink! (Shame) But I can't start my day without a soda! I don't like coffee or tea so I need something!! Looking forward to seeing some more of your Alphabet!!
Thanks so much for stopping by my blog today!!
Was that a RedBull induced rant? Cool. I stay away from it because I know I will start twitching! Low tolerance… etc. You are a stronger person than I!
Thanks for visiting me on my sits day!
Popped in from SITS to say hi!
LOL. We all have days like this, don't we? Visiting from SITS.
LOL I totally can relate to you. I have never tried RedBull, but this really give me an idea! I am coffee girl through and through, but I might have to add a RedBull to my regiment and see if it makes a difference!
Thanks for the inspiration and for sharing! I know how it is to be in a blogging rut… I hope yours passes soon! Happy Tuesday…. visiting from SITS!
Visiting from SITS! Cute blog!
