the 2012 trivial drivel thread

[ramseycat]

My parents never put sunscreen on me before school and it never crossed my mind to do it with my kids either. It's a big enough pain in the ass just getting them to wake up and brush their teeth much less rubbing sunscreen all over them. Some how we all survived without it in school, and this is the sunshine state.

I was driving one of my kids to a soccer game and literally threw a grilled cheese at them in the back seat and told them to hurry and eat their dinner...when we arrived he ran off and I sat down with a bunch of the other moms. They asked why I was so quiet and I told them how guilty I felt about their dinner...throwing a grill cheese in the car...one mother turned around and said, "oh, you grill yours?"

that's great.

One of my friends has a son the same age as my oldest - 15. He was being a bit of a smart ass so she threw a loaf of bread at him and hit him in the side of the head. It was just a soft loaf of bread and she didn't throw it hard. But to him she had just ABUSED him! He was so shocked that she threw bread at him. How could she?? The rest of the family thought it was hilarious. As did I.
