    New curse word: Wafflenog! (Random Tuesday Thoughts)

    randomtuesday

    Do you know what today is?  ‘Tis one of only FOUR Tuesdays in the Yuleicious month of December!  And here is my gift to you – Random Tuesday Thoughts!

    (There could be more than four, actually.  I’m too lazy to check.  The sentiment still stands, and YES Yuleicious is totally a word.)

    So let’s get noggin’!

    I haven’t actually started on the nog yet this year.  I’m exercising my will.  Or haven’t gone to the grocery store, either one.

    I might get up off my duff for Adult Chocolate Milk though. Nom.

    My tree is actually up* before the 15th of December, which is virtually unheard of in the UnMom household.  I guess we’re, like, adults now or something.

    *Note: Did not say it was decorated.

    There are many work and job-finding goings-on that are, um, going on, but I can’t really get into them.  They involve ninjas, and ninjas don’t like it when you tattle.

    Today I bought a font.  I almost never do that, since I can get them for free or buy them through work, but it was ssssssoooooo perfect!

    Hey, you get excited about shoes, I get a charge out of fonts.

    (Mind you, I bought some shoes, too.  As part of the obligatory Christmas Shopping Tariff.  You know, how 15% of all your Xmas shopping expenditures, you get to spend on yourself?  What, they don’t do that where you come from?  You should move.)

    I have written exactly ONE fan letter in my time – to John Cusack.  Last night hubby and I watched Hot Tub Time Machine.

    I’m really glad I didn’t send that letter.

    And now I give you waffle Tetris:

    (from Topcultured)

    Hm.  Now I want waffles made with eggnog.  And garnished with Adult Chocolate Milk.

    I also want you to go write a Random Tuesday post! (And bring me some waffles while you’re up.)

    My tree is up and decorated because I bought it that way from Costco. It is the one and only Christmas decoration I've got up.

    I thought the Christmas Shopping Tariff was buy one gift for someone else get two for yourself?

    Yuleicious is the perfect word.

    I love the tariff, but then again, I have been known to follow the rule, one present for you, one present for me!

    I love tetris! I picked a great day to return.

    I love tetris. Now I am going to go get some chocolate milk!

    December 7, 2010 | Unregistered CommenterKimber

    I'm way behind - at least more than usual. I don't have my tree up, let alone any decorations! Usually they're up over Thanksgiving weekend, but I've been a slacker this year. Wanna come help? ;)

    I've hit the nog already this year - with kahlua. Yum! But I might have to try that Adult Chocolate Milk!!

    Best. Random. Ever. I like it because you sound a little more strung out, I mean energized by the holidays than usual! We don't drink Egg nog around hear and we don't really use the word "noggin" around the kids. Just sayin'.

    I don't do Christmas, I let everyone else do it around me. I don't complain (much) and the kids don't have a clue but I just don't do it. I do however love waffle tetris.

    Okay, that was total bullshit. I'm going to bitch about the holidays until they're over. I do every year.

    Just put my tree up last night. Sadly without adult chocolate milk though.

    December 7, 2010 | Unregistered CommenterCaptain Dumbass

    Yummmm.....chocolate milk....I'll be having some now thank you!

    December 7, 2010 | Unregistered CommenterVanessa

    My eldest sent me a link to the Adult Chocolate Milk, saying he was on the verge of a diabetic coma just looking at it...but didn't really care.

    The Waffle Tetris player is screwed.

    When I try to tab through the comment fields, it keeps kicking me back up to Mr. Linky. Just thought you should know.

    December 7, 2010 | Unregistered CommenterJan

    I've thought about putting my tree up. Do I get points for that?

    December 7, 2010 | Unregistered CommenterJoanie Mack

    I love your waffle tetras.

    That is a good tariff, I'll have to charge that to the Young household.

    John Cusak rocks.. "TWO DOLLARS!" The Hot Tub was funny...

    December 7, 2010 | Unregistered CommenterAnjanette

    MMMMM Waffles!

    December 7, 2010 | Unregistered CommenterRachel M.

    You knew it had to be out there: Eggnog Waffles! I'm surprised you didn't go looking, but I thought I should. Now you can have your adult chocolate milk and waffles and eat them, too.

    Tree is up, it has lights on it and I'm sort of letting the kids do a little here and there. My husband was supposed to have them decorate it on Sunday while I was at work, but he told them we had to decorate it as a FAMILY. WTH?! Have we even tried to do it as a family yet? Happy Yulelicious Random! (I am totally going to use that word all season this year.)

    Mmmmm waffles.

    And I love tetris!

    I will need to try that adult chocolate milk in about 3 or 4 months. Yum!

    December 7, 2010 | Unregistered CommenterKelly Deneen

    Christmas tariff? Why didn't I know about this? Now I have to go shop.

    December 7, 2010 | Unregistered CommenterJenni

    I saw that Adult Chocolate milk the other day--looks yummy. And some one had entirely to much time on their hands with the Tetris thing--but waffles yum!

    December 7, 2010 | Unregistered CommenterVandyJ

    Found you through the blog hop from Ramblings of An Empty Mind. Will now be following!

    December 7, 2010 | Unregistered CommenterPat

    I'm so excited by this tariff idea that I'm about to pack up the kids and go buy momma a new bag! You're like Gandhi with this idea; saving the shopping bedraggled with your peaceful spending policies. As in, if I don't buy myself something with my shopping tariff, there will be no peace.

    There are apparently a lot of trees up naked right now. Mine is, too. I'm motivating.

    Tetris waffles look delicious. With adult chocolate milk? Breakfast of runner ups.

    December 7, 2010 | Unregistered CommenterMama Badger

    the only thing i could think when i say the waffle tetris was how much work that would be....cool, but why not let a little hand held computer do it for you? although i am craving waffles now.

    December 7, 2010 | Unregistered CommenterTerrie

    My tree isn't exactly "up", but it has been drug into the living room. It's a step. Also...go for the nog. Then I won't feel so alone.

    December 7, 2010 | Unregistered CommenterGretchen

    Wafflenog.. .I Love it.. now I want waffles too.

    December 7, 2010 | Unregistered CommenterMartha

    My tree isnt even bought yet because The Man and I are having a dispute about real versus fake. I just cant bring myself to get a fake tree. No way no how.. which means, I might have to sleep thru Christmas this year. LOL..

    And what is this Adult Chocolate milk and where can I buy it?? :) I love the Waffle Tetris too!
