Living la vida New Yorker

Tuesday, February 28th, 2006

So I’m blogging from The New Yorker, used to be a luxury and high society hang out in the 40s. It was renuvated in the 90s but you can barely tell, the rooms and hallways are a bit dingy. But hey at least they have free wireless and gym — for the first time ever I know what it feels like to lift the heaviest weights at a gym, though 40 lbs isn’t anything to write home about.

Mike has a great post on You know you are from california if… I’m surprised that you they don’t have the another one:

You expect to wear a Tshirt in February.

It was 18 degrees out there yesterday, and that was in the sun. But there were more locals out and about then there are in Cali — whatever got into them, wierd.

If You Don’t ______________ You Will Pay!!

Wednesday, February 22nd, 2006

I don’t know how it all started in my brain but today I was musing over the fact that being a parent (or someone who’s responsible for children) has very specific consequences if you fail to do ALOT of certain things.

For example, if you don’t discipline (w/ love!) your child will become a spoiled brat. If you don’t bathe your children they will stink. If you don’t clip their nails they will scratch you…now I remember how this all started. If you don’t closely supervise little girls they might get dark pink blush all over your white carpet, even if you’re in the same room as them! – Believe it or not I used this one as a “testimony” in Home Council the other night…btw, the 2 ft. sq. stain came out, hence the “testimony”. Back to my ramblings; if you don’t put your baby down for a nap…need I say more? If your kid isn’t always warm enough (which is hard to know sometimes) they will, oh they will get a runny nose. I am currently accessorizing with a lovely soft white Kleenex.

Otay, I think I’ve made my point here and you can probably think of a bunch of other things as well. You know, it’s no wonder we’re trying to be super-parents (or childcare’ers), ‘cause IF we’re not…

But I suppose that’s how life is in general and with us of legal-drinking-age-people. Kinda like if you don’t eat you will get skinny…yeah, riiiiight, what was I saying…man, this whole “don’t” & “do” thing can be awfully confusing.
