Hump-Day Confessional


I confess...I will be driving to Austin with 3 kids, a cat, and my mother.  The cat scares me the most.  I have never traveled cross-country with a cat.  Any hints or advice would be greatly appreciated.  The second most scary thing is driving with my mom....she can be like adding another child to the mix...between texting her boyfriend and showing off her new-found dance moves, I may have to drink heavily at night.

I confess...While repacking some boxes in the garage this weekend, I found my old journal from college.  Oh.  My.  Hell.  I was a twit.  Like a majorly boy-crazed, self absorbed, drama queen type-twit.  I am so embarrassed for myself that I was ever like this.  I should have burned it...then buried it...then poured a cement basketball court over top.  But I didn't.  I repacked it.  Bridges of Madison County it isn't....I pity my children for having to find this hideousness one day.

I confess...I am a certified hypnotist.

I confess...In my early 20's, I went  skinny dipping in a lake and woke up the next morning with a rare strain of strep that eventually had to be cut out.  Not flesh eating, but too diseased to heal.  I should be thankful it was just my tonsils and not my lady-bits.

I confess...I want to learn how to do glass-blowing.  Dale Chihuly is my favorite artist...going to see his exhibit at the Bellagio is Las Vegas literally made me weep.  Know what?!  I switched my Groupon city to Austin and one of the first deals to come through was glass-blowing classes!  Ahhh...more signs!

  1. First of all your confessionals always make me laugh! Secondly, that is so cool that you are a hypnotist. Don't they have hypnosis sessions for weight loss? Does that work? Thirdly, me and son #3 LOVE to watch glass blowing. They have some great glass blowers down in Jamestown, VA (part of the Williamsburg experience), and we also watch every year at the Renaissance Festival we go to in Crownsville, MD. There is something fascinating about the whole process!

    1. I am so happy you enjoy them Beth :)
      I think hypnosis is a fabulous tool for weight loss. There are many techniques to use when emotional eating gets triggered and subconcious reminders to drink, move, and eat healthy.
      When we lived in CO, we would go tot he Ren Fest there (amazing) and they had some fabulous glass blowing demonstrations there. It is absolutely fasinating and such beautiful art.

  2. I love hump-day confessional! I always look forward to it.

    I think we were probably all twits as kids, but just don't remember it being that way. :) How scary about the strep. I'm glad it was only your tonsils as well!

    1. Thank you Pattie! I am seriously dreading the cat thing...more so the loading the cat in the crate every morning part. We got him from the pound so he is quite akittish. Time to find the kevlar long gloves ;)

  5. Two words - kitty prozac. When we moved we got a prescription from the vet for the cat so she wasn't so stressed.

  6. I don't have a cat but Benita on the Chez Larsson blog used some type of pheromone (I think) that calms the cat when she moved to a new home. I think you can get it at a pet store.

    I am taking a glass fusion class right now through a local park's department, no blowing, we use a kiln and I am really enjoying it. Go for it!
