Free to be you and me

I have an obsession with free things.  I really think this has to do with the fact that my father was old when I came into his life and of course he was also Jewish.  I simply cannot avoid free stuff.  When I stay at a cheap motel that offers a free continental breakfast I get up extra early so that I can not only eat terrible bagels and drink concentrated orange juice but I have to put extra stuff in my pockets like an 80 year old yenta.  So it goes without saying that things like "buy one get one free" at the local grocery store always get me to buy things I do not usually buy.  Just tonight I bought 2 almond Hersey bars because I got 2 for free.  And just to prove to the cashier that the chocolate was actually for my skinny ass and not someone else in my family I proudly ate one whole bar while she was checking me out.

Potty

I took my daughter to a brand new library today, which had a "toddler bathroom." I should not have read the sign to her I just should have said "let’s use this other bathroom."  Because once we were inside I also had no choice but to also use the miniature toilet. So the cartoon image for today is of a giant woman sitting on an itty-bitty toilet.  My daughter thought it was really funny.

New Year - New Information

So apparently blogging is meant to be spontaneous, off-the-cuff, ad hoc, ad lib and brief.  In short, I had been overworking the damn thing.  I am also super late to the party according to Wikipedia "As of 16 February 2011 (2011 -02-16)^[update], there were over 156 million public blogs in existence." So my new year’s resolution is to blog everyday and not worry about it.  That’s it, I’m done.  Seriously that’s it. Honest! Really if you want more you will have to read it tomorrow not today, tomorrow. Peace, shalom, check you later, hasta manana.
