The Real Ms. Cheap Speaks...

I found out today that a 10 pack of chicken McNuggetts cost $3.99 plus tax.  That is 40 cents per tiny square of processed "stuff" that contains chicken parts.  Next time I'm going to order their $1 chicken sandwiches and cut them in 1/4's which would be 25 cents and be bigger and... I would have buns left over with all of the "fixin's" to use for my burgers we can grill!  Or toss them, but still...  I would have had a drive thru order re-do but the girl doing our order was TERRIBLE.  The boys in the back were laughing & I was telling them not to so they didn't spit on our 40 cent mcnuggets along with the rest of the crap...  She even had to add Evan's orange juice as a separate order because she couldn't add it to our existing order.  By the time we got to the first window, she had to totally start over with me repeating it again...for at least the 4th time & even I had the giggles.  I wasn't excited when we got on the interstate and they forgot the orange juice...  Evan agreed with me that a gallon at Kroger would be just fine!!!

Meet my husband's son Seth...

Do you know how sometimes you can tell that people are related without even doing a DNA test? Well, that is how it is with my middle son and his Dad. They are both very driven, fast paced along with a lot of other good characteristics, BUT...they are SO hard headed. It causes many disagreements between the two of them since neither of them are ever wrong.

Today on the way to school I was talking to Seth and Kyle about some school activities, when Kyle mentioned how Seth got ejected from the final basketball game the other day. You know why?? Because he yelled out at the referee (who is a teacher), "Are you blind?" Of course, Seth was in the right as he proceeded to tell him about how a player on the other team stepped out of bounds more than once without penalty. Then Seth got called for walking (which of course he was not doing...), so he just couldn't take it anymore.

Now, meet Seth's Dad who is critique extroidinare... He can not stand imperfection in any form. I need to start taping him while he watches the TV. He can pick out any problems with hair, weight, make-up, dialect, etc. with anyone! Watching interviews on the news is my very favorite things to listen to his comments on. If we could just be as perfect as these two are... But, we gotta love them anyway :)

We need a new website WHOGIVESACRAP.COM

With all of the real problems we have in our nation and world, I am totally over whether Brad Pitt is F'ing Jennifer or Angelina. He can't be THAT good!

I also don't care "who wore it better" when comparing some crazy $500 outfit that two overpaid, underweight actresses happen to have chosen to wear out for people to see.

Just a few random thoughts from an underpaid, overweight non-actress who buys the same off the rack clothes that many other people in the same city that I live in also purchase. Thankfully, there is no paparazzi to critique me!
