"Sometimes It Has To Breathe"

So I had a post planned for today (tonight)...well, as much as I plan any post. Ok, I was going to sit down and start typing about one thing and see where it ended up. And then put in a cute kid picture to distract you from whatever headache I'd just written. But I got side tracked. First it was CSI and the season premiere of Gill's last... uh, season. Shut up. Haven't watched it for awhile but he's leaving and then Lawrence Fishburn will be taking over. LAWRENCE FISHBURN! Ya, so that rolled into the emotional roller coaster of Grey's Anatomy after which I was going to come down and write something. Then Life on Mars came on. Totally forgot it was on tonight. First episode was pretty good. Which means some network flunky who deserves to be staked to the ground will decide to cancel it after I really get into it. Some people just deserve to die. It's true.

So here's a picture of my other niece who just had to have a few teeth pulled. Werewolves run in my family. She had a few too many incisors and the neighbours were beginning to talk she had to get a few removed to look 'normal.' Society is really hard on little girls.



Mikayla is only six and werewolf teeth are pretty big, as you can imagine, so they had to put her under for the extractions. Apparently whatever drugs they used on her made her pretty gassy. After a particularly earth shattering release my sister asked her if she had to go to the bathroom. She replied, "My bum was holding it's breath but sometimes it has to breathe."

  1. I AM SO FIRST!

    Well, she's just adorable. I love her. And the cat. Poor baby with the teeth. I don't think I can make light of her situation here. Well, maybe the bum holding it's breath part, but that's about it. Aww. Be sure and tell her a bunch of virtual strangers who probably all have good intentions are wishing her well!

  2. I am second!!!
    Dude...... I am totally going to use that statement. That is a riot. For some reason my kids call it a bootie-burp so that goes in line with having to breathe :)
    cute.

  3. Good thing she let her bum breathe... wouldn't want it to implode!! What a cute little pumpkin. Hope she's feeling better soon!

  4. What a great picture! She's very cute and that cat is totally sneering at the camera.

    Kids say the funniest things after gaseous events. A couple of months ago my 5 1/2 year old son farted while standing next to me and without missing a beat said, "That was Santa Claus." What?

  5. She's precious. My husband's bum breathes a lot. It burps too. I'm scared, Cap'n. I can hear it now and he's not even home...

  6. I am totally stealing that line from her - Sometimes all of our bums have to breath. Seriously, can't wait to steal that line.

  8. What a great description for farting, I'm stealing it too! I've been feeling the pressure of keeping up with TV AND blogging too. I've resorted to keeping up with both and foregoing sleep which is never pretty. I'll let you know how that goes!

  9. LaLa has just caught on that a well timed fart is extremely funny. Imagine, family sitting in the living room it suddenly gets quiet and then apparently the 4 year old turns into a trucker.

    And my kids have a half day at school today! I have to go pick them up SOON!! Darnit.

  13. Life on Mars was pretty good. I don't know how far they can drag the premise out, but like you said, it probably doesn't matter. It'll probably get canceled. Although, they brought that Eli Stone show back. So anythings, possible I guess.

    Poor neicey poo. Hope she feels better soon.

  15. I was drinking a cup of tea when
    I heard that, tea splatter everywhere! Funniest thing I've heard in a long time. About a quarter of a century, if I recall.
    A boy (initials CT) annonymous,
    told the nurse in the hospital that
    he wanted to "see his lawyer, Bob,
    before that Quack touched him!"
    Needless to say there was NO
    Lawyer named Bob...

    and...Grissom is leaving CSI, my
    world is spinning out of control!

  18. Lawrence... FISHBOURNE?? Are the opening tags gonna all be Matrix references now?

    'Looks like this guy...found an exit.' BUH BUH BUH BUWOOOOOW BUP BUP.

    Great pic :D.

  19. Heh, excuse me, Lawrence Fishburne. Not Fishbourne. I was thinking of the 'Fishbourne Identity'. With Matt 'I Need Me Some Fish Sticks' Damon.

    I'm so banned from your blog.

  20. I wish, *correction* The others in my Office wish my Bum would hold it's breath.

    My bum like to do Lamaze breathing.

  21. ha ha cute. it's sad how society expects so much in regards to girls' looks.

    i'm gonna steal it, too, along w everyone else :)

  22. Yes, I agree she is adorable! I was so psyched to see Life on Mars, but err, I fell asleep 15 minuted before the end. Ach well, I think it was because they kept it so similar to the UK original and I sort of knew the ending. So, if it gets cancelled, you can always order that series up and watch it through to its finale.

    Found your blog via Sammanthia by the way.

  23. We call it "tootling" at our house.

    Two old ladies are sitting together at church. The first one tells the second, "My butt's falling asleep." The second one replies, "I know, I heard it snoring." Ba-da-bing (sorry)

  27. Jen, what I thought was cute about Ringleader's comment is that they call it tootling. I might have to steal that.
