I think my mom is a one-upper. Don’t know what a one-upper is? Of course you do. They have the “anything you can do I can do better” mentality. If you break your arm, they break both of their legs.
This morning I was telling her about my week of bad dreams (in addition to figuring out how I can get sick*) I decided to share the dream in which Clint Eastwood was trying to kill me because of something that happened in Highlander. I was like whoa dude, I didn’t write the movie! Don’t kill me. But he kept trying. Where’s Chuck Norris when you need him?
So that’s pretty bad ass right? The blog crush seems to believe that I should feel honored that Clint Eastwood wanted to kill me. But of course my mom had to one-up me.
She had a dream that Carol Burnett kissed her. Mmhm. On the lips. Pretty sure that’s WAY better than my Clint Eastwood dream. (For the record, my mom definitely likes men. Her collection of Tim McGraw paraphernalia makes sure of that.) Also? My mom is awesome so step off.
Anyway, anyone else having weird dreams this week? I’m convinced it’s the rain in LA. Apparently this only happens once every fifty years or so. The stars and planets must all be out of whack or something. Craziness!
Completely unrelated note: After listening to the Glee soundtrack I’m convinced I have a soulful black woman inside of me just waiting to come out and rock the sh*t out of “You’re Gonna Love Me.” Take that Jennifer Hudson and Mercedes (from Glee.)
P.S. To my neighbors, I am sorry.
*A cold has been lingering, but won’t make anything of itself. I want to get sick now because I know that the minute I get to Chicago for Christmas this thing is going to explode.

At least Eastwood didn’t give you a Dirty Harry. Those are so degrading.

Every time I hear Alicia Key’s, I too, think that I have a soulful black woman inside of me. That is, until the song ends and I try to sing it without her voice covering up mine.

I always try to wrap up before they do, but I can get over-zealous at times.

Does a weird LIFE this week count? And yes, it’s definitely the rain. And the FREEZING temperatures. LA has made me such a softie.

A weird life totally does count! I hope you find some normalcy (unless it was a good kind of weird!)

Yeah, it is the rain. We keep our water at the beach and when it goes other places we get all wonky. Should have warned you about that.

I am imagining you scolding me like how a 1950’s mom brandishes a serving spoon at her children, only you’re waving around a Wiimote.
Yep, rain makes us weird.

I would give anything to hear you sing like a soulful black woman. Seriously. I usually have bad dreams when I’m sick, like really jarring ones.
