Lights, Camera, Parental Humiliation!!

I am so tired today. I stayed up much too late last night because I was so upset that Rosie isn’t coming back to The View. Tragic. I think she should be replaced by Don Imus. They could change the name of the show to “Them Nappy Headed Ho’s”…or not.

I am going to be very brief today because as I said, the Rosie news has shattered my world and also because I am going to some music show put on by son’s school. He pleaded with me not to show up because he said the show is no big deal. He made it sound like they will be doing some kind of performance typical of the Happy Hands Club. This has made me want to go all that much more, and now that I have a shiny new camera I will be taking plenty o’ pictures, and the subject will be: Embarrassment!! Parents can be so darned cruel.

If I don’t see you all later today I will definitely see you back here tomorrow for Stream of Consciousness Friday. Until then,
Cheers!!

Songbird: I will cath Little Man in all of his 6th grade glory!!

Schmoop said...

Hammer: Love the new picture dude!! Yes the loss of Rosie is tragic, tragic I say!!

Odat said...

I wonder why he "pleaded" with you NOT to show up????hmmmmmm....Just don't let this be a cause for him having to attend therepy when he's 21 or sompin.......
and yes, I too am heartbroken over that err, person from the View leaving....NOT!!!!

Schmoop said...

Odat: Knowing him, the production isnt up to his theatrical tastes. In other words he thinks it's lame as hell. Cheers!!

Deb said...

It's devastating, isn't it? I guess her voice will be heard.....somewhere..............

Schmoop said...

Sometimes at night, I hear it in my nightmares!! Cheers Deb...

Welcome to the real world Matt...you could always buy yourself some rosie colored sunglasses and see yourself in her world....lol.

Ummmm...on second thought...I don't think that's such a good idea.

;o)

Laura said...

Matt-Man, you're right on with the Imus replacing Rosie idea! I'd TiVo the show if that happened! I can't actually watch TV during the day, because a child automatically appears at my elbow yelling, "Watch Curious George! Watch Clifford!" as soon as I touch the remote.

I think you should show up to Ryan's performance dressed as Napoleon Dynamite - now that would be fun for you, twice as embarrassing for Ryan! (If not more.) I, too, want the Napoleon figure to add to my Jesus playing soccer figurine. Then I'll need to buy a curio cabinet and the fun will really start! Whee!

Schmoop said...

Jillie that was indeed a disturbing idea.

Laura: Ryno loves that movie so he would have liked that. And he was right, the show was lame. Hmmmm a Curio George Cabinet!?

jillie said...

See...I told you it wasn't a good idea. You may have the shoes that match...BUT do you have the panties??? lol...

;o)

Sorry - took a side trip there.

The Boy said...

One of the prime compensations of parenthood, relentlessly embaressing ourselves and our children.

Schmoop said...

Jillie: Maybe I do...Maybe I dont.

Sanni: I'll post some this weekend. Happy 1st to the little one!! Cheers...

Anndi: Buck up my friend. It's not worth it.

Travis: Perv!!

Boy: It is a parents right to humiliate their little ones. Cheers!!
