Hollywood here I come

I've been asked to write my blog into a movie idea!!! An agent from Talent People, LLC in Hollywood emailed me a month ago. His name is Sheldon Baskin and I guess someone sent him my blog and he thinks it would make a good movie. So you can imagine, with my job and the kids, Brian and Tyler, I thought I'd never have time to write up my ideas for it. But I managed to make it happen!! I've been devoting all my spare time to it and it's almost done. Can you imagine how fun it would be to see my story up on the big screen with Julia Roberts playing me? No, Kate Bekinsale playing me. Yeah, Kate Bekinsale.

The only problem is, I don't have an ending.

So I have to make one.

Which I am doing this week.

Meddlng Mom

This mom, who works at her daughter's school, logged in and changed her daughter's grades.

Oh boy, here's the worst part, her kids were already getting A's. I can't imagine caring that much.

4th of July

My plans for the 4th are to sit by a pool with a Mai Tai and tan in the sun while Tyler makes sure I have the proper amount of suntan lotion at all time. In reality, Brian bought the kids a pool, so we'll be setting that up then filling it with a hose for God knows how long. I guess we could also do this.

This is the worst excerpt:

Tell kids they can have a party, said Jen Singer of MommaSaid.net, an online community for moms. Let them plan the day's events, allowing them to get excited about the party.But then impose rules, such as they can only eat carrots — no ice cream — and they can only play inside. When they get upset about the rules, explain that's how the patriots felt when England made rules and imposed taxes on Americans.

I guess I'm lucky

I'm lucky that Brian would never buy into this (and he has a girlfriend at work, maybe?). I do not want to be the person responsible for paying the mortgage.

Picture this

They took my photo today at work for their website. I hate taking photos because I know how I like to be photographed (one of those few things in my life I can control) and no one ever does it right. I've had to ask people to take photos of me down from their facebook or school bulletin boards because I was captured at the wrong angle.

This one is meh. I wish I had left those velcro rollers in an hour longer. The kids we're coming down on me pretty hard in the car and I buckled under the weight of their jokes.
