Sometimes the planets just align...

But not Pluto. Because it's not a planet. It's a star, or a moon or a dwarf or something, but it is NOT a planet. So my very excited mother DID NOT just send us nine pizzas. Because there are no pizzas. There is no spoon. Are you with me here people? My very excited mother just sent us nine. Nine what? Nine dwarves apparently...but there were only seven dwarves...and none of them were named Pluto either. So you can see where this continues to get confusing for me. Apparently Disney and NASA need to get together and sort this whole mess out.

The 8 remaining planets (the other 8 are okay, right??) aligned for me last night. Monday is a busy day in the Crum house. I had to leave work (late) and race to pick up Owen. Kev-head was on Alex duty. I got home, fix grilled cheese, took the roast out of the crock pot, dished out soup (vegetable soup, mmmmmm) and set the table. The soup was cool and dinner was ready to go when Alex and Kevin came home. Alex had just enough time to eat and change out of ewwwwww.sweaty soccer clothes before we were off to music lessons. He's supposed to have guitar from 7-730, wait 30 minutes and then drums from 8-830. Do the math here, people...that has me leaving my house at 6:40 and not seeing it again until almost 9. For music lessons. Oy. But Al LOVES it, so we march on. The beauty of last night? Drum lessons were canceled. No one bothered to tell the instructor that he had a new student. This might infuriate some people. I was so happy I almost kissed the receptionist. They were apologizing all over themselves. I told them I had laundry and a nice warm bed waiting for me - and as long as I get a credit for the missed lesson next month, we're golden. :)

So we got home at a much more reasonable hour, cleaned the kitchen, started some laundry...and then Kevin and I actually got to sit in the hot tub. YEAH baby! It's hot tub season. What a great way to wait for the socks & undies to finish in the wash. So I got everything done I needed to, including returning a couple of phone calls about scouting, and I got to bed at a fairly decent hour. After one glass of wine and a hot tub soak, sister was ready for some sleep. HA! Take that Benadryl!

Today is CMKM day - tomorrow should be a very fun blog day. If it's uneventful, don't worry...I'll make shit up.

ETA: The Onion is cracking me up, people! Go and have yourself a laugh. Now. Go already. Geez...you'd think I was asking you to wash my car or something. GO. Will you wash my car? No? Then go read the friggin' onion...
