A green bow? Are you freaking kidding me?

Maybe when he feels less disgraced, he’ll pose for me, but he looks oh so cute!

Last night, the PTA hosted a Reflections award ceremony. The topic this year was WOW! There were four categories, literature, visual arts, music and photography. The ceremony was nice, albeit long. It was hard to hear the speaker announcing names, but J brought home two trophies. 3rd place in Visual Arts, he drew Sharks and 2nd place in Literature. He wrote about Shark week. Yes, the boy loves him some Shark’s.

We’re very proud of him. This is the second time he’s won an award for something he’s written. Oh, and he made the High Honor Roll for the second time this year. So proud of our little guy.

Today’s a writing day. I’m getting ready to open up word and write as much as I can. No editting. Just writing. Going to turn on the music, not answer the phone…you get the idea.

If you’ve ever read my blog in the past, you’ll know that I’m a huge fan of Grey’s Anatomy. At one point in my life, I would’ve given my first born child to be able to write the way the writer’s for Grey’s do. This season, not so much. I mean, I’m still baffled by the whole Denny/Izzie thing and while I loved them before he died, the fact remains that he died. I saw him dead. I had closure with Denny and Izzie after that. And I actually like Alex this season. Mer/Der have been boring. I love Lexie and Mark together and hope Mark realizes what he has and doesn’t blow it. I absolutely loved the interactions between Christina and Hunt. It’s sweet and yet very sexy at the same time. They’re innocently flirting with each other and it’s so sensual. He’s making love to her mind and to me, there’s nothing sexier. Last night was in my opinion a classic Grey’s.

However, last night I had to laugh hysterically on the inside. My fourteen-year-old daughter watches Grey’s with me. It’s our thing. So, what do you do when Grey’s has a patient who was apparently trying to spice up his love-life with his wife now that their children are off at college. The patient even had to reiterate what Ivy league schools his son were attending before they showed a magazine with obvious sex things in them. The man had something in his backside. Literally. Jokes ensued, the Chief with a straight face told his doctors and interns to knock it off and my daughter looked at me and said the words a lot of mom’s fear. “What are they talking about?”

I did what ever mom has to do from time to time.

 I. Lied. (* does her best Howie Mandel ‘Bobby’ voice*: Well what would you do?)

And then I said, “Shouldn’t you take your shower really quick?” I held my breath. And when she walked out of the room, I tried as silently as I could to :happy0194:

The best was when they did the colonoscopy, ( which I explained to her )you heard whatever it was clunk into the tray ( I told her I had no idea what clanked and I wasn’t lying. Does anyone know? He used the words spice up, but it was too loud to be a jalepeno.) and then Chief started talking about him bending over backwards to satisfy his wife. When they got out of surgery, and you’re watching them scrub up, all it takes is for Alex to say, “You said bend over backwards.” When the Chief was laughing so hard he was crying, so was I.
