Friday Fragments?

Friday Fragments are bits and pieces of your week that are usually brief; too short for a stand-alone post, but too good to discard. Collect humorous observations, "Heard" items, and other small gems and put them together in a Friday Fragments post.

***** Driving Miss Ash to school in the 45 mph zone doing 50 I get passed by 3 cars, all of which are High school students. The last one to pass me actually caused the oncoming traffic to stop so that he did not cause a head-on collision. My speeding is not the point here LOL. (AND I was passed by 3 cars) And we will ignore the inner rage i felt compelled to follow the 16 year old to school and beat up in front of his friends, this topped off by my next stop being the dreaded "drop-off loop" THIS my friends.... started by morning.

***** As my daughter was cleaning out her backpack this week, I noted her pencil bag contained about 15 green markers. yes...ONLY green. Her favorite color. She borrowed them apparently. Yeah. After learning she "borrowed" them from the teacher... we have a FUN week ahead and Spring break return of grounding and lessons... JOY. AND 15 GREEN MARKERS? Am I the only one who is just questioning this choice besides the joy of parenting a child on the lessons of taking things? OY VEY!

***** The economy sucks. Everyone's losing their homes, jobs etc etc. The boyfriend suggests we should start buying properties and selling them. Ummmm....


***** NEIGHBOR UPDATE We now have the barking dog... a new chihuahua and the new chihuahua's SISTER! (Oh and the vinegar in candles worked, hehehehe, my floating votives have been floating for a week now)

***** Yeah, I'm too nice. Let me start off saying this first but yeah... I have a cell phone plan and nicely enough since they have years of contracts, my EX, my daughter's Dad has one on my plan still, Since my bill jumped 200 bucks, I obviousally inquired WHY, and was notified of the international calls to NIGERIA from his number. Upon inquiring... He "met" a girl on "Myspace" whom he called. BUT said was local. I guess the 14-17 digit number didn't tip him off. His "barely speaking English, 12 minute, 220 dollar conversation he paid me for" which gave me the HUGE chance for ... I got to say... "I hope you enjoyed", really, and I mean REALLY made my day. Any other questions as to why I am divorced from this man?

  2. He sounds like an idiot. Man!

    As a teacher who has a box full of GREEN markers because I am sick and tired of kids stealing my blue ones (green is more rare, so I know when it's mine now!), I say, "GIMME back my markers, KID!" This is a great time of year to give a teacher pencils. Why not have her give the markers back, along with a nice supply of pencils to atone? :)

  3. I love this idea of Friday Fragments. Can I steal? I could even do Tuesday Tidbits, Wednesday Wanderings, or Monday Musings. Your daughter is capital Adorable. I'm adding you to my blogroll, sorry to not have done so sooner.
