On the Guad, the human libido, physical fitness, and Menudo...
Today was a pretty eventful Monday.
Took food over to Pam and Jack's tonight. Pam has been assigned bed rest, pending the birth of their child. However, she was obviously tired of sitting around and doing nothing. But...is the whole "Puah" name thing still a joke?
Headed to the Guad tonight with the (currently) normal Guad Squad: Me, Kailyn, Stacey, Eli, Emma, J-mo, Kyle, Chuck, and David. J-mo and I got hooked up with a customized order of shrimp nachos (instead of the normal chicken or beef options). Mmm...shrimp...jalapenos...chips...mmmmm...
Afterwards, we headed down the mall...same routine, yet again. Dillard's, Parisians... We ALL decided to ride on the mall merry-go-round tonight. It was fun, in a sad-way-to-spend-a-monday sort of way :-). Then, we decided we'd had enough of the mall, so we headed over to Books-A-Million. Stacey bought an entire COLLECTION of fiction books from a particular author (note: You can only read one book at a time). I picked up a book on Aikido, so I can refresh my memory about things that haven't been fresh in my mind with regards to physical fitness and martial arts in over 10 years.
As usual, Kyle and J-mo had their 'oogle' search engine going full strength. (I can't blame them, though). J-mo saw a girl in Parisian's he really wanted to meet, but Eli INSISTED that she accompany J-mo...no doubt to be there at the exact moment to thwart any of J-mo's efforts to meet a girl. J-mo reluctantly quit trying, vowing instead to wait until next time to tell Eli a choice expression or two if she continued to intervene...hehe. It was all too funny.
And all has been well with the world. We had a fun night. Kailyn had a great day...it was so fun to watch her have a lot of fun during all our various activities. The weather was good. And I was sitting here, thinking that thought - that all is well with the world - when BAM! - reality hits as I read a most disturbing headline on FoxNews.com:
"Puerto Rican Boy Band Menudo Being Revived"
A shudder went down my spine. Menudo? The original boy band from the 70s and 80s? Making a comeback? Say it isn't so!! Even now, the haunting theme of "Menudo on ABC" (from Saturday mornings of my youth) is plaguing my mind...over and over again.
Somebody wake me from this nightmare. Steve Vai, where are you? (LOL...read Kyle's blog for an 'ethereal' explanation of that comment).
KEY PHRASES: "Hey, when it comes to Kailyn, drippy drippy is much better than leaky leaky." (observed when Kyle was holding Kailyn and a 'drip' of water escaped her sippy cup). "Only in Alabama can you find a Bob Gibson BBQ sauce display in the middle of the perfume and makeup section of Parisians." "Stacey, put J-mo down."
