I saw this earlier in the week at Thinklings, but it was always while at work and I can’t view YouTube stuff at work. So today is the first chance I had to see it and Jared is right, “This is some of the most accurate (and hilarious) social commentary I’ve ever heard.”

Funny…

I asked Beau if I could tell this tale on him. He doesn’t think it’ll be funny to anyone but us, but we’ll see.

We both wear Breathe Right strips on our noses at night. I, because of my pregnancy congestion. He, because of his general nighttime congestion. With Beau there are two factors to consider: 1) he thinks it is wasteful not to try to reuse the strips, so he tries to reuse and 2) he often has his head under a pillow at times in the night. So over the past couple of weeks, when Beau has awoken he has found the strip to be anywhere but on his nose. Once he found it on his underwear. Once I found it stuck to the comforter. This morning he said, “Guess where the nose strip ended up?” I had no clue. “On my forehead.”

I busted out laughing.

“That’s not the best part, though,” he continued. “I woke up at one point and it was on my finger, so I put it back on my nose.”

I continued to laugh hard enough that I started to cry. That’s priceless.

On my own night weirdness front, my dreams continue to be bizarre. The other night I dreamed that Beau and I were good friends with Todd and Sarah Palin. In the dream we were just hanging out with them. Then last night I dreamed that Sarah Palin and I were hanging on the Straight Talk Express bus, but we never talked politics. We talked about babies, just mom to mom. It was great.

This column is laugh out loud funny.

How To Make Fun of Obama

I wonder if Obama would laugh at it, though. I don’t see self-deprecation in him much.

Going back to the funny thing that Glenn Beck did last night about silly laws on the books in our country, here are a few in California alone that just boggle the mind:

1. It is illegal to set a mousetrap without a hunting license. (Beck mentioned this one.)

2. In L.A. it is against the law to complain through the mail that a hotel has cockroaches, even if it is true.

3. In Blythe, California, a person must own two cows in order to legally wear cowboy boots in public.

4. Redwood City has outlawed the frying of gravy.

5. In Los Angeles, you cannot bathe two babies in the same tub at the same time. (I wonder how many parents break this law daily?)

I couldn’t watch yesterday, but here’s the link to Dr. Horrible, Act II.

I love the first song.

The Glenn Beck show was fantastic. We laughed ourselves silly and had moments with misty eyes and left inspired. I’m half tempted to write in his name when I vote in November.

One thing Beck mentioned that had us howling (among many, actually) that I knew I had to look up is the story about the warning from feds about the increase in TB cases because of Mexican illegal street cheese.

Or “bathtub cheese” as it is also called.

Bathtub cheese.

He also mentioned the crazy laws in California. My favorites:

1. A regulation in San Francisco makes it unlawful to use used underwear to wipe off cars in a car wash.

2. No person shall produce, test, maintain, or store within the city a nuclear weapon, component of a nuclear weapon, nuclear weapon delivery system, or component of a nuclear weapon delivery system under penalty of Chapter 9.60.030 of the Chico Municipal Code.

He mentioned that #2 was actually about nuclear weapon detonation and a $500 fine for whomever detonated the nuke. Funny, right? We howled. But that one turns out to be an urban legend.

Anyway, the show was very fun and well worth the cost of the tickets, gas, babysitter, and lack of sleep.

She’s hilarious.

And I totally agree with her. Choice quote:

I read a LOT of blogs, and I also read a LOT of blogs written by females (I’d say 75% of the blogs I read are written by women) (and WOW I am apparently really in love with percentages today). So all this week I’ve been rather bored by The Topic of BlogHer.

[...]

What sucks is that - all next week? Guess what I get to read?

A. BLOGHER WAS AWESOME! I met Dooce! She was SO COOL. And tall. And just as funny in person. She promised she’d visit my blog! Hi, Heather! *

Go read the whole thing, please, to get the rest of the multiple choice answers.

We went to dinner with our small group last night. Merry arrived right on time, as we were struggling to try to feed Jesse some English muffin pizzas. He was having none of it. And then Merry walked into the kitchen and he was happy to see her until he realized that seeing her meant Mom and Dad were leaving. That’s when his lower lip went into full on pout mode.

I really need to take a picture of him when he screws up his face like that. It’s amazing how frowny he gets - every muscle in his face is in play and it’s fun-ny.

So he started crying like his heart was breaking into a thousand pieces. We kissed him, said we’d be back, and went to dinner. Merry was left to fend for her own dinner, which ended up being a Totino’s pizza, which she shared with Jesse.

We enjoyed our time with our friends and got home a couple of hours later. As I drove Merry home I asked how long Jesse cried after we left. She said, “As soon as you pulled the door closed he stopped and gave me a big grin.” Poser.

She said he ate well and they had a good time playing before she put him to bed. That’s a good thing - we’re hiring her to watch him while we look at houses on Saturday and then she’ll sit him again next week when we go to the Glenn Beck comedy show simulcast.
