Newsflash! Skittle Addicted Hamsters Break Free From Local Pet Store. Story at 11.

Random ramblings today because it's an ungodly hour. I am tired but my body just won't sit still long enough to actually sleep.

That title? It goes back to the days when email was brand spankin' new and to make each other laugh E and I would put titles like that in the subject line. I know. We were far older than five but it never failed to crack us up. And for some reason? Hamsters always factored in.

I didn't burn anything in effigy on my front lawn yesterday. I'm sure my neighbors were happy. I don't think they would find the humor in my burning anything, even Fall leaves, but especially not say, a red elephant or suspicious looking penguin type character.

TD wants to name her new baby sister Svetlana and I'm blaming it all on this blogger and her seductively cool purple penguin that she sent us.

We have preschool Open House this morning and I can't help but wonder if I'll meet any cool moms this year. Ones that won't look at me and say, "You do what? Blog? Oh, I've heard of those...." Then deem me "alternative" (judge much Mummy? Geez... take your tired ass back to bed,why don't you?) or some other such nonsense. What? You haven't met those people yet? I have. Often.

My cranky butt is ignoring the coffee this morning and going back to bed.

Scratch that idea, TD is up and running....
