Say Wha?!?

By the time Friday nights roll around both of the parental units in our household are zapped. What that usually means is we go somewhere to eat, come home, chill for a minute and crash. Most restaurants are packed on Friday nights which forces the party planner (A.K.A. Alicia Renee Walker) to bring an "activity" for the lil'un to do while we wait ... and wait .... and wait. Tonight's activity de'jour was a spiral notebook, two coloring books, crayons, markers and three books.

Fortunately, we only had to wait about 20 minutes until our little buzzer went off indicating our table was ready. Just when we waded through the sea of patrons to get to the hostess stand they say Ohhh, we're sorry ... we forgot you said you'd like to sit near the bar area so you can see the TV. Fine by the Walkers' cause we brought plenty o' goods to keep the girl entertained. Shortly thereafter, the real deal Holyfield table was ready & boy was that talkative child o' mine thirsty. Hmph, wonder why?? Maybe it's cause she never shuts her friggin' mouth! Macy Renee ordered up a BIG glass of sweet tea .. no little cups for her, no sir'ree Bob.

Macy decided she'd like to watch the football game that was on at the adjacent TV. She said she was going for the 'black team', which was Louisville. I mean c'mon, every girl knows its about the fashion here, their uniforms were black so they MUST be called the 'black team'.

This football watchin', fast talkin' little cutie pie of mine must've had half that BIG glass of sweet tea consumed when lo & behold it's bottoms up for her! She's down to the laaaast little drop of tea, cup tipped up and then slammed back down like any good beer drinkin' son of a gun, when I hear "Oh ssssss ...." I'm passively listening you see, trying to guage whether or not this precious, innocent angel will say you know--"the" S word. Much to my surprise it turned into "Oh sssssNAP!!", "I just spilled this all over my shirt!"

Whew, saved with the n-a-p. ;)
