For all my loyal, mommy-readers out there:
http://www.americangreetings.com/ecards/mothers-day/family/pn/3120572
I promise this one is worth the cut & paste!
Hope your day is special — and doesn’t involve cleaning up any strange-smelling, unknown substances from your childrens’ bedrooms or underwear. 😉
Here are some links and "other things" that I am into right now:
*THE BACHELOR/THE BACHELORETTE
http://abc.go.com/shows/the-bachelor
I am a mostly happily married woman, yet I can't stop watching this smut. Now I've even got a fantasy bracket going on!
*BLACK EYED PEAS
http://www.blackeyedpeas.com/
Love 'em, especially my girl Fergie. Close friends who've seen me sing (after a glass of wine or two) have affectionately nicknamed me "Amylicious."
*CANDY CRUSH SAGA
OMG folks. I have a real problem here. Seriously. What an absolutely joyous time-waster/procrastination tool/child-neglecting game/app. "Dad...! Mommy's planning Candy Crush again!" Right now I am hopelessly stuck on level 530. Send some extra moves boosters, please!
*CARDS AGAINST HUMANITY
Someone as sarcastic as this momma obviously loves getting together with her homies and playing this game. Since the little monsters often keep me from the Mafia and Real Housewives, I have now taken to playing the app version, Evil Apples, quite regularly on our Ipad.
*CROSS-STITCH
http://crossstitch.about.com/
Bet you didn't think a chick with the patience of Yosemite Sam would do this kind of thing? Wrong! It gives me something to do with my hands while I'm watching mindless television.
*ESTROGEN MAFIA
https://www.facebook.com/groups/315608918520491/
My original play group, now more of exactly what the title says, and some of my closest friends. Piss us off and we'll maxi-pad your car!
*GIRL SCOUT COOKIES
http://www.girlscouts.org/program/gs_cookies/
Yum. Forget the right-wing moms who pulled their destined-to-be-pregnant-at-fifteen daughters from the organization. I say "more cookies for the rest of us."
*GREY'S ANATOMY
http://abc.go.com/shows/greys-anatomy
Well let's just say Shonda Rhimes is lucky I was already addicted *before* she killed off McDreamy. Suckass.
*THE HUNGER GAMES TRILOGY
http://www.scholastic.com/thehungergames/
Who says these books have to be for teens? I don't think so. The movie was terrific, too. Have you read the books? Then take my quizzes:

http://www.quizazz.com/quiz.php/1299333/Catching-Fire-with-Suzanne-Collins/
http://www.quizazz.com/quiz.php/1346876/Mockingjay---Districts-vs-The-Capitol/
*HIV TREATMENT AND PREVENTION
http://www.aidsfortwayne.org/
My last job was a Case Manager here. Support your local task force, people: Don't be judgmental. Ever shot up with a dirty needle? Had unprotected sex at least once in your whole life? Had an accidental blood exposure? It could have easily been you...
*MAROON 5
http://www.maroon5.com/
Big fan. Big. And I liked them before all the rest of you did.
*ORANGE IS THE NEW BLACK
Thank you, Netflix, for bringing this jewel to me. Season III comes out on June 12th, just so everyone knows why I'll be neglecting the kids (again!) for several marathon days..
*THE PRICE IS RIGHT
http://www.cbs.com/shows/the_price_is_right/
Been to the studio in LA. Would have been on stage but husband screwed it up for me. Now I play it on FB and the Wii. Constantly. Non-stop. Even the kids know how to play...
*PUGS
http://www.kentuckianapugs.com/
Homer J (R.I.P.) was from the above organization. Pugs are like potato chips: You can't have just one.
*REAL HOUSEWIVES OF FORT WAYNE
http://www.meetup.com/sahmclub/
They tolerate the boys and I. And they secretly know I started the latest baby trend with Peyton. (It's not just in the water.) And they are the biggest "Ask Amy" supporters I know.
*WII MONOPOLY
My latest addiction. I know I play it too much when Nate goes around quoting the dumb things Mr. Monopoly says. Ooops.
*WORDS WITH FRIENDS
Alec Baldwin got kicked off a plane for his addiction to his game. Mine is almost as bad. Find me on FB: I challenge thee. Game on!
That's it for right now.
