Boys vs. Girls

Jacob came home yesterday absolutely incensed that the girls were chanting this at school:

"Girls go to college to get more knowledge. Boys go to Jupiter to get more stupider."

As a mom, I had to act horrified that the girls were acting ugly. Inside, I was thinking:

You Go Girls!!! :-)

Happy Birthday to Me!

Ok, so my birthday is a few weeks off, but every year Jack hunkers down with the boys, and I go on a girls-only weekend to Rocky River Ranch, in Wimberley.

Last weekend, a group of us had a wonderful time. I got a wonderful massage, and spend the afternoon sitting on the Blanco River. It was paradise. And there were the 4 basic food groups: Chips, Dips, Chocolate, and Alcohol.

Girls, I highly recommend it. It's called Great Escape Weekends. Here's the website:

...More Questions of the Day

Jacob recently asked...

"Where do clouds come from?"

Mom answered: "When warm air rises and it meets cool air, it makes a cloud."

"Then where does air come from?"

Mom answered: "Call Granddaddy."



Jacob recently asked...

"What is light made out of?"

Mom answered: "Call Granddaddy."


Jacob recently asked...

"How are statues made?"

Mom (the art major) who actually knows the answer, replies: "They are carved from marble, or molded from clay, then bronzed."

Jacob said: "I think we should call Granddaddy, just to be sure."

Are you beginning to see a pattern here? As most of you know, my father is the KING of all things trivia. I have said many times that if I ever go on Who Wants To Be A Millionaire, he'd be my lifeline!!!
