Which one?



I've been toying with the idea of dying my hair dark. I've always wanted to, I did it once and I liked it so why not. Well according to someone who shall remain nameless, she thinks I can't pull it off. ( I think she just wants to be the only brownie) I think I could do it. No I won't be cutting my hair just coloring, so keep that in mind when looking at the pictures. Also as I was looking at the pictures myself, what is it that they say about the eyes being the window to the soul. Well in this case it is true, so if I look a little spooky or crazy don't worry, I am. So please weigh in and let me know your opinion. Don't worry my feeling wont be heard, I'm an Arnett we know I will just do what I want anyway.

To be irrational or not

You might be irrational if.....

You argue with the sonic chic about who is right. Did you really order at happy hour or were you just a little early?

You decide not to eat anything more than lettuce, because if you eat you will gain weight, never mind that is why we eat. To live.

You wear a short brown hair wig to your New Beginning and you are a leader.

You get upset if your mentioned in this little ditty.

You drive yourself to the emergency room, knowing you'll probably get your appendix out, but tell your husband to stay home until your almost under.

You decide to move 3 days after you have surgery.

You want to dump a goat in your ex's yard, since you have been feeding it since HE bought it.

You go camping and wear a shower cap on your head because you think it makes your headache feel better.

You go and yell at the guy scraping the snow, about a do gooder neighbor that came and told you to move the car, and your daughter in law just had a surgery and your from the valley and the nerve of that guy. Only to find out he IS the do gooder neighbor come to help you shovel the car out.

You tell some one your on edge and about to blow, and they smile and say I like you like that.

Now that I think about it not all these things are irrational, are they? Maybe as a recovering irrationalist I've lost sight of what is and what is not irrational. But some of these things are just funny, I don't care who you are:)

Happy Birthday Cy and Josie




On Monday we celebrated Cy and Josie's birthday. Well actually it was a sorry excuse for a party. But I havn't had to host a party for Cy for a couple years as Super Dad does that. He fell thru this year. We had cake and candles and a new DS game for Cy which he is very pleased with. Jo got whatever she wants. Kindof like everyday only different cuz it was her birthday. Cy is one of a kind. I love his thirst for knowledge he just wants to know how everything works and proceeds to tell you about it, and make up what he doesn't remember or understand. Josie what do I say, she is naughty and when I say that I don't just mean terrible two's. She is seriously naughty. She will spit at you when she doesn't want to listen to you, tell you go, scream loudly, try to scratch you BUT as I am told she is SO CUTE. She also has a sweet side, she will give you hugs and kisses when you come home and is so excited to see you. She loves her babies.
So HAPPY BIRTHDAY to my two favorite January babies.

More bathroom reading

You might be irrational if...

You think banana boxes would make good beds for your children.

You leave your daughter on the road after she gets out because she's mad.

You get all crazy about a missing tie you lent to someone.

You walk out of class when your professor starts talking about global warming.

You start talking about how illegals should go back to Mexico and your dislike of them, when your in a thrift store full of them. And you think what better place to spout off your mouth then this.

You throw your children's toys out the window when driving 60 mph, because they wouln't stop fighting.

You take thousands of pictures and then edit thousands more just for the ONE picture.

You try to outbasket case your sister, but she has you beat and breaks down in front of you and you don't know what to do.

You are proud of your irrationalism.

You have a poop hole in your back yard and its okay as long as you have a working swamp cooler pump.

You take your kids to church and school in a red feed truck. It is only a single cab and so the family has to ride in the back.

You store your garbage for months in the shed, because it only costs 17 dollars when you get around to taking it as opposed to the 25 dollars a month for someone to pick it up.

You try yelling at your kids still even thought you've lost your voice.

You set traps in front of doors and windows so if someone breaks in you'll be able to hear them.

The door rings and you hold very still, but then get your 22 and wait by the door for them to leave. Only to find out it was the flower delivery guy.

The second installment

So I am back with more. I have been kicking around the title. Bathroom reading for irrationalist. Or Bathroom reading: Thoughts of an irrationalist. I'm not sure that is even a word but what do I care.

So we begin-

How about you might irrational if....
You are involved in a rear end fender bender, ( you are the one who got hit) and you drive off before the other person can get out of the car.

You then stay home for a week because you don't want to run into the car that hit you.

You are trying to buy a boat, while your wife is pregnant, you are looking for a place to live, and a job for her.

You have an opportunity to make alot of money for doing one job, but you don't wanna commit, so you don't work for 3 months thinking that the job will go away and you won't have to talk to the guy in charge of the job.

You decide to take some pressure off your husband and use your blood money to live for the next year.

You resist the urge to add on to your home for fear that it means you are staying forever in that house.

You think there should be justice in this world and you are the one to make sure it happens.

You want to tie up a goat in your ex's front yard because he never came to get it and you've been feeding it for the past 6 months.

You decide your baby has cooked long enough and its time for her to come on out into the world, so you basically kick her outa you. Then she looks like an embryo for a month.

You decide to take the afore mentioned baby only a few days old to Texas to sign papers on a house, when the papers could be overnighted to you and you could stay home and rest.

You wear mad make-up to church and think nothing of it. (Picture Josie putting on your make-up)

You tell your sister you won't go to her wedding because you wanted her to marry someone else.

You yell at someone who speeds over a speed bump and chase after them.

You throw your brothers in the pool to teach them to swim.

You call housing because the maintance man who came to your house while you were out ate some of your oreo cookies. You know this because you placed them in such a way you would recognize if some were taken and there are miniscule crumbs on the counter and you are a better housekeeper than that.
