Weekly rundown

My 11 year old has been craving Sardines. I asked if he had ever had them and he said no but he wanted to try them. I bought a can and he gulped em all down within minutes. It was like watching fear factor when he dangled those slimy things over his mouth and devoured them. The stink in the kitchen was awful. I'm not sure I'm buying them again.

Next he wanted anchovies, So I bought him a personal pizza topped with the nasty things. He ended up not being able to eat it because the salt made his tongue numb. Go figure...

There's a local Italian place I go to that serves everyone at the table a salad no matter what. It's their policy that they HAVE TO put a salad in front of everyone who is eating, even very small children.

My youngest only eats cucumbers, the middle eats black olives and the oldest only eats dark green leaves. So I end up eating four huge plates of salad. I'm not complaining because it's actually pretty damn good.

I spent most of today taking all the DVDs we own, pulling out the disks and putting them in flip books. I realized the other day that I couldn't get to most of the movies in my collection because they were stacked 4 deep on every available shelf. I ended up throwing away three 55 gallon trash bags full of empty cases. I just don't have room for any more superfluous shit.

My youngest daughter is taking caps of toothpaste, lotion, etc and sticking them to the bathroom wall. Then she goes and lies about it. I can't for the life of me figure out where she comes up with this shit but it's starting to piss me off. I have hidden about every tube cap in the house and have several products drying out and evaporating as we speak.

I guess it was a fairly normal week.
