Check. Check. Damn.
Briar starts pre-school next week, this is not a post about how I feel about that (not ready to do that.) No, this is a post about how as a friend of mine said, "Even the best laid plans..." Sean went to the parent-teacher night last week. He came home full of purpose, explaining to me how the school is in lock down during certain times of the day, how we need to be on time to pick Briar up and what we can expect from this.

I have written plenty on how hard being a working mom and a good mom can be. I realize that sometimes I set the bar too high for myself, but other times, well other times it just doesn't seem like too much to ask to not fucking run over the coveted princess kleenex I scored at the grocery store.

And somewhere, deep in the forest, a gaggle of tiny singing woodland creatures and birds inexplicably fall dead.

You said fuck! In a post. Oh mah holy hell, I'm rubbing off.

There will be more princess Kleenex in your - er - their lives, you'll see. :)

No! Not the Princess tissues. Only a boy would run over the Princess tissue box.

Say it sister!

Oh, Amanda. I'm so sorry, but I snickered really loudly at that.
Sorry 'bout Jasmine and Ariel.
Gah, I just snickered again.

ah, frig.

Oh no! Is it very mean that I laughed? Because I would totally do that. This summer I ran over my camera AND my cell phone.

Oh no! That sucks!
Also, why do girls and boys need different-size baggies?

those bastard capitalists have no business putting princesses on kleenex anyways.
poor you, babe.

Yeah, yeah, I'm sorry about the auto mishap, but I'm just focusing on why boys need a box of quart size Ziplocs and the girls need the gallon ones. Is that so obvious to everyone else, and I'm just too stupid for words 'cause it's 10 p.m. on Back to School Night and I'm usually collapsed long before now?

Aw, sniff sniff. Oh, wait -- don't cry, or you'll need a tissue! ;)

My daughter would be devastated to see that carnage. Apparently she is Sleeping Beauty...
She is 16.
Yeah.
Good luck with the rest of your list!
