I had no idea what Gangnam Style was until a week ago.  Lillian came home doing this crazy dance, after a sleepover with nanny.  I had no idea where this dance came from, only that Lil and nanny thought it was hilarious.  I thought they made it up.  Lil called it Gangnam Style.  I didn't think much of it until one night I asked Sean what the hell it was.  He dragged me down to the computer and had me watch the video. I felt so...uncool.  My five year old is cooler than me.  And so is my mother.  How can this be?  I had to make a list.  So I would remember, why I am cool.
Reasons Why I Am Cool
- I can go to the bathroom with a child sitting on my lap.  
 
- My cell phone flips open.
 
- I've never paid for a pair of underwear.  Thanks mom...and Victoria's Secret Underwear of the Month club.
 
- I write blog posts about dog poop.  For money.
 
- I can eat an entire pound of bacon.  Two if it's a holiday.
 
- I can run fast.  And skate even faster.
 
- I can catch my kids.  All three at the same time if I trip two of them.
 
- I eat spinach every morning for breakfast.  That's how I have the strength to trip my kids.
 
- I know how to ask "May I go to the bathroom?", in Spanish.
 
- My all time favorite movie is National Lampoon's Christmas Vacation.
 
- I still remember how to read.  
 
- I wear Converse sneakers.  In three different colors.
 
- I've almost mastered indoor stair sledding.  All my idea.
 
- I'll never wear skinny jeans.  Ever. My butt is too cool for those. 
 
- I can shit, shower, and shave faster than Sean. 
 
- I can do just about anything one handed. 
 
- I'm the mom.  And I said so.
 
So maybe they 
are all cooler than me.

ReplyDeleteOh, and as far as #10 on your list goes...why can't you EVER stay awake during that movie if it is your favorite? hahaha
That definitely ups my coolness factor Jenny ;) I'm like to have you, to make me cool! And I can't stay awake for any movie!
