Grey's (semi spoiler)

Okay, I know 3 posts in one day is probably too much. But I HAVE to quote this scene of Dr. Bailey talking to all the nurses in the lobby (they were on boycott because Dr. Sloan sleeps with all of them).

Dr. Bailey, "here are my thoughts on Dr. Sloan. This man is...a whore. Has always been a whore. Will probably always be a whore. But that's not a secret. He's not keeping it hidden. You all knew who he was before you got involved with him. Now you want to be all 'woe is me, he's not calling me back, he's dating other women'. He's NASTY. But he's a doctor here. And a pretty good one at that."

Here comes the best part...." so let us all close OUR knees and get back to OUR jobs so he can get back to his job and help the people that really need him".

I love Bailey. I wish I could give such "suck it up" speeches.

That's all for tonight. I think. No, I promise.

Rain is a kid's best friend

It has rained a lot in Ta-town this week. The pool cover is filled to the top. Last night, the rain cleared and L really, really wanted to play out on her swing set. But we knew it would be too wet so Jeff convinced her to go out in the front. And she found the puddles. She marched up and down the street for 15 minutes stomping, dancing and singing. And yes, she has socks on.

The bigger the splash the better!

An L moment

Okay, this post is for Denise and all the other mothers who have been there. Tonight, we went shopping at Target. I'm looking for a pair of running shorts with a pocket (for my race Sat). Before I could even gasp, L is yelling, "mommy" and she's peeing all over the floor! Man, I wanted to crawl in a hole. So I quickly walk her over to the kid clothes and pick out the first outfit I see, quickly pay for it and then go to the bathroom. We change and I realize I bought a skirt..damn...need panties. So we shopped and bought panties. I hope that's not a situation I go through any time EVER.

Living instead of Blogging

You all know, I'm the first to complain when my fellow bloggers aren't blogging. But I'm to blame lately because I've been busy playing instead of blogging. Yesterday, Jeff had a meeting at school. L and I went to the neighborhood park for 45 minutes, then came home to fix dinner. L wanted to play on her swing set, which we did for another 30 minutes. I was worn out by the end of the day. Even the girl needs a thirst quencher at her new table (b-day present).

So far for the spring, we've walked to the library and park numerous times. I love our local library. It has a wonderful kids section. This time I picked up several David Shannon books (i.e.No David). We're having a great time. Based on Lori B's recommendation, I also got "Waiting". It looks good...but that's another post (all my exciting summer read books).

WSU softball star in the making?



What do you all think? I think she looks good in pink. Unfortunately, she doesn't quite have the coordination so we opted for the wiffle ball and bat.

Grey's

In my last post I said how much Grey's is my guilty pleasure. I forgot how much I love this show. And I'm not sure why.

So Addison came back for a guest spot. I didn't like her before because she tried to get in the way of Derek and Meredith, but Thursday night's episode was great. She is a strong character and I hope she comes back again. Some suprises on the show, like Hahn may be a lesbian (interesting twist). But my favorite scene was this. The show's about to end and Derek gets on the elevator and Meredith is already there. His new girlfriend joins them, then Addison. The doors close and they drop to another floor. The doors open and there stands Mc Steamy and the look and laugh on his face was priceless. Then he comments to Derek (McDreamy), "bet you'd wish you'd taken the stairs". It's times like this that makes me forget all the other annoying crap the writers stick in there.

Only a few more weeks til it's over until fall. Hope it gets better, not hokier.

A Wonderful Moment

It's 9:45 pm and I'm sitting on my sofa, with my computer and new scrapbook magazine. And my guilty pleasure, Grey's Anatomy, is playing (via tivo). I didn't realize how much I missed Grey's. There's nothing better than these simple things after a long, busy day.

Have a great weekend!
