Happy Birthday Wesley!!

Today you are 32. (For the record I am much younger than Wes; he robbed the cradle as it were.) I am daily grateful that I married you. You were the right man for the job. Maybe someday I'll reach full adulthood because of your guiding influence. And maybe someday you'll chill out. Ok, I've been working on sappy up until now and I just can't get past the sarcasm that we share. So, let me quote a former present to dredge up the remance; "All the dreams I prayed you'd be are all the things you are. You were once my little boy and now my shining star." Happy Birthday, Honey. I love you.

Really Cool Stuff You Don't Learn In School

Wes and I have been watching the HBO John Adams miniseries. It was very interesting starting with the Boston Massacre and ending with his death. First of all, did you know that John Adams was the defense attorney for the British soldiers following the Boston Massacre? I thought it was surprising because he was so passionate and influential to the colonies separating from England. Really, my jaw hung in awe that not only were he and Thomas Jefferson really good friends, but the both died the same day July 4, 1826. Fifty years after the signing of the Declaration of Independence. That is the kind of trivia I never would have forgotten if someone in my supposedly superior AP US History class would have mentioned.

Mommy-itis

I suppose I should be flattered. Or living it up that no one else can do it for him. I can't handle it. Why on Earth can't his dad get him breakfast? Not that Wes isn't willing and/or capable. He's a great husband and dad, but he's just not cutting it. I really need for Dylan to let someone else take care of him now and then. Bllllleeeehhhhh!!!! How long does this usually last? Is Dylan going through this later than most kids? I'm feeling really bad for Luisa right now if her twins do this at the same time. I mean, I know I'm an awesome fun mom, but that's going to take a turn for the worse if it doesn't stop soon. I don't work again for more than a month. There's no escape. And why can't they make brown dress shoes in a toddler size 5? Also, Dylan has had shoes for less than a week and worn a hole through the toe from crawling on the cement.

He's a cute kid. I love him. I wouldn't trade him for anything.

Addendum: It was really just an ear infecion. Now that he's on antibiotics, he's cool with everyone again. Someday I'll learn that when he take really bad naps, he's sick. I guess instead of whining I should be sent to Mommy Bootcamp where they remind you of the signs of a sick kiddo.

My Own Hot Guy

Wes hasn't failed to remind me that he's hot (at least I still think so and that's all that matters).
He sings, he dances. he wishes he could wield a sword. Cheezy, but there it is. Oh, yeah. And he's claiming foreigness to Utah because he's from Georgia.

Foreign Hot Guys that Wield Swords

This is the new list meant to go out tomorrow, but I only have 1 patient. So, I'm jumping the gun a little. Really, there were some guys we wanted on our last list and couldn't justify it, so we made one they could get on. So, in no particular order I give you: Foreign Hot Guys that Wield Swords.

Jason Statham

Craig Horner



Clive Owen


Gerard Butler


Antonio Banderas


Daniel Craig


Sean Connery


Karl Urban


Ioan Gruffudd


Eric Bana


Note: Orlando Bloom is not on this list. He's foreign and wields a sword, but he's a sissy.

The Alternate List

The Rock- not really foreign, but has foreign heritage


Pierce Brosnan- not a good singer


Ewan McGregor- not so hot, but looking pretty good here

Heath Ledger- dead


Colin Firth- great as Mr. Darcy, but not a total hottie


Wentworth Miller- not sure if he dances, but he does sing

Sean Connery- he's been in a musical, we're counting it

Patrick Stewart- ditto from above


Mel Gibson- US born, but raised in Australia


We really want to add Clive Owen, Jason Statham, and Daniel Craig, but they really don't sing or dance, but they are foreign and hot.

Hot Musically Inclined Foreign Guys

So whenever I'm at work, and it slows down (as is common when I'm here), we tend to make lists of hot guys. The list this today is hot foreign guys who can sing and dance. We haven't ranked them and we're not sure we can. So in no particular order we have...

Antonio Bandaras
Hugh Jackman
Gerard Butler
Christian Bale
kind of Heath Ledger, but he's dead
maybe Ewan McGregor (he's not very hot)

Is there anyone we could add to the list? The criteria is very specific, so it's our shortest list ever.
