Me: Honey, can you pick up the BIG 2lb bag of chocolate chips at Costco, we're out again.
Italian Stallion: Sure, I'll bring it home after soccer practice
keep in mind: heat index at 100sweltering + chocolate chips left in a car for 1.5 hours
Me (a few hours after his arrival): Did you happen to remember the chips? (notice the PLURAL here)
Italian Stallion (directing my attention to the freezer): Ummm, I brought home a CHIP
Folks, I have a 2 lb mound of chocolate in my freezer that USED to be chocolate chips...

Many children on school trips at a science museum in the middle of a lightning and thunderstorm will find much amuzement by pulling the fire alarm and forcing everyone out into said storm. Museum workers (teenage/college students especially) will find it very frustrating when mothers, who KNOW that it was a prank and understand that there is a no real fire, will NOT take their children into the dumping rain and risk having their children struck by lightning...
This will happen at least twice during a visit on a rainy day...

When your washing machine quits spinning and you've changed the motor coupling and the lid switch and paid the repair man to come and tell you that it's the tranmission and then you fork over $70 for him to tell you that...you CAN still get your washing machine to work AND let out some major frustrations at the same time!!! BONUS! You can also speed up the process of purchasing a new washer by twisting husbands work shirts by hand to wring out water in the backyard and then calling to complain about said job at least a 3 times throughout the day:)

Trying to lose 10 lbs in the summer when there's yummy ice cream and frappaccinos to eat, not to mention a HUGE chocolate chunk in your freezer, is pretty much a ridiculous endeavor...just wait until winter...
Happy week everyone!
