Oh, Canada

Happy Canada Day, eh! What a great country. They've given us John Candy, Michael J Fox, Colleen Dewhurst and Alanis Morrissette.

Also Dave Coulier, but we won't hold that against them, will we?

I'll be eating some Canadian bacon, drinking a Moulson and listening to some Anne Murray today. Not really. I might eat some actual bacon and pretend it's Canadian, maybe even moose bacon or some such thing, because honestly, I think cured moose is a lot more Canadian-seeming than round ham, but what do I know?

Come to think of it, I don't really like Moulson beer either, so I think I'll have a Pyramid Apricot Ale in a Moulson glass. And, um, I don't have any Anne Murray. God, I'm a sucky Canadian.

WAIT! I'm not Canadian. Damn. There goes the day. Happy Wednesday, everyone.

Good grief! I am! I better go get my flag out!
(I never ate moose in Canada, did here in the states.)

Now, I don't like Canadian bacon, but I DO like Anne Murray. My mom always listened to her growing up. My parents' taste in music is also the reason why I still like Tony Orlando and Dawn. There, I said it!

Do they have Canada Day in the US or just Canada? I have never in my entire life heard of "Canada Day" until today?
Was I suppused to take the day off from work?
Do we always have it on a Monday?

Welcome to My World

It's a crazy one. Here's the guide.


Mr. Clairol: My darling husband and love of my life. He's a mechanic, dyes his hair platinum blond and drives to work on a Vespa. I swear he isn't gay.


Drama Queen: My fourteen year old daughter who is frighteningly brilliant and gorgeous to boot. Of course, I am her mother.


Missy Hoohaw: The four year old daughter. She loves animals and roughhousing and earned her name by being a 28 year old Marine in a preschooler's body. No, she doesn't swear and drink. But she can run twenty miles in the rain and give a mighty Hoo-rah.

Big Red: Our toddler son, who is redheaded and proud of it. He's got a healthy temper and the sweetest smile this side of the Mississippi, so it evens out. I was worried about defending him from his sisters at first. Now, I worry about the girls.


The Beast: Our dog, who is a mutt, heavy on the Great Dane. He's named after a heavy metal guitarist in my husband's all time favorite band. This says it all, believe me.


This is my life. Try not to be too jealous.
