Clock Management – Laying in bed getting ready to push the sleep button just behind my right ear (I fall asleep as soon as my head hits the pillow, Chasity is so jealous, it used to take her an hour) I focused on the clock.  We have one of those awesome clocks that projects on the ceiling.  

I guess one of the girls had turned the clock sideways while in our room during the day.  So, as I’m laying there looking at the clock it read 12:15 sideways.  It was one of those digital clock mesmerizing can’t look away moments.  Much like: 1:23, 11:11, 12:12, 4:56, 7:11, and 2:47.  There are many more but since it’s 8:31am (not so mesmerizing) that’s all I got.

Oswald – Oswald is a show on Noggin that the girls watch in the morning.  He’s an octypus and has a TRUE weenie dog as a pet.  The body of the dog is a hot dog bun and everything.  More on weenie dogs in a sec.  

Not so weird that penguins, flowers, trees, and snowmen are characters and resemble people in the cartoon.  But something that looks weird is have a character that has the body of a person with the head of a Jack O Lantern.  It’s kinda scarey I will admit.  Here’s the weird part.  His voice is the kid in Polar Express who play’s the know it all wearing glasses.  The high, yet deep, nassaly voice that’s just on the verge of fingernails on a chalkboard.

Popeyes – It’s not weird to order food and have them forget one of your sides or replace it with one that you didn’t order or leave out the extra biscuit you ordered.  The Popeyes on Pat Booker Road in Universal City, TX still owes me 21 biscuits!  Yes, I even called the Popeyes hotline to inform them of the forgetfulness of their employees.  I noticed new managers but same results.

I place my order at the drive thru and pull around to the left (it would be funny if someone put the window where you had to turn to the right, there would be wrecks and confussion!) and stop behind a white Lexus SUV.  I know there are dog lovers out there.  I happen to love my dog.  She’s a Siberian Husky with blue eyes and her name is Asher.  I don’t have any bumper stickers on my car to prove I own her though.  Fine for you, not for me.  

Here’s the thing.  The sticker was for a weenie dog (daschund).  There’s really no way to make the dog look exciting, mean, happy, or alive in a side angle.  So they had the dog in a semi flying position.  I couldn’t help but laugh.  At first I didn’t even recognize it was a long bodied dog.  Here’s a picture of one in action but they really airbrushed/photoshoped the sticker up.  Oh, and yes I had to go inside because they forgot one of our sides!
