I want to be a hobo, but instead of a rat, I'd have a tiny little armadillo who would protect me with its armour.

And I am so going to answer the phone like that next time it rings.

It IS a mouth organ and my sister in law is having the same "projector issues" that you're having. Get glasses that make you look like a librarian. I do that and people think it's hot...and that I'm smarter than I really am.

What the heck is snow camp? And do they do musicals there? Because I think he might like to do a musical.

2010-03-21T00:00:36.782-07:00

My brother was told he had to have glasses for distance a short time ago. He was amazed.

He never knew you were supposed to be able to see the individual leaves on trees, and all those squiggles on car license plates - they're NUMBERS you know!

Wonder how long he was driving illegally.

Also, if I'd had your stepfather I would've made Big Rock Candy Mountain an anthem for the household.

"Ooooooon a Summer's day in the month of May a burly bum came hikin'."

Altogether now . . .

As usual, you make me laugh LOTS :)

2010-03-18T18:10:17.632-07:00

I did the same thing at the movies when I first got glasses. They didn't seem to make a great deal of difference. Then I realized it was the movies. They simply aren't really very sharp, just BIG!

I might have to steal that from your son. Hilarious.

I think it must be harder to be a hobo today then in the "golden years" of hobo-ing. You just don't find that many unlocked box cars these days.

2010-03-17T06:48:20.782-07:00

Hey there chica, I think I really love your step dad, he would probably fit in rather nicely around my house.
I bet your ex-student leaves a slimy trail where ever he goes, like a slug. He probably just follows along in the slimy trail of his dad; his mother probably lost her trail years ago, poor thing.
Your son's future looks bright, with his sunny optimism he'll go far.
Thanks so much for your sweet comment. I'll try not to take too long sorting things out, promise. xo d

40 years from now when I'm under the care of a buxom young golddigging nurse, I'll remember that I shouldn't 'empty my mind and fill my drawers' because of your fortune cookie comment.

Haha, thanks for that.

2010-03-17T05:36:33.514-07:00

Wow. What an eye opener.

I will never pee and spit on a hobo the same way again.

Next time I'll use a lot less force.

PS, some of those facts might be slightly embroidered. By wine.

2010-03-16T18:12:34.444-07:00

I've uncovered something: All the best bloggers have very unconventional parents.

Not that I think I'm the best blogger, but once my Dad buried a police car and ate a bar glass in a 5 star restaurant. Not on the same day. That is all.

He also slid down a hill with his friend Rick in a refrigerator box.

K That's really all.

Once he got mad and paid for the entire town's outstanding water bills.

I'm done.

Once he went to hotel and lied to them, telling him he was a safety inspector and made them take everything off their lobby walls because it was 'unsafe'.

I'm really done. But this is mildly therapeutic...

I could always tell you were descended from classy people, Vic! No wonder you have so many good stories to tell!

(And kudos on pawning off the slime-ball on someone else! I bow to your awesomeness!)

2010-03-16T16:58:14.647-07:00

Well I'M jealous -- I would like the freedom from bosses and showers. I mean, I guess I could jump into any old pond I passed to keep the crevices fresh, but the real crux of this hobo attraction comes from that freedom from bosses thing. Of course, if I quit showering before I come in to work, that could happen, huh?

Glad to see you're back. You are one of my go-to blogs when I need a good laugh or twenty.

The secret lives of hobo-stepfathers is pretty much JUST what I needed today. Because you are, as always, awesome.

My tax man and I got to talking about our love of the literature of Alexandre Dumas. It was a very Porthos-filled party.

Back when I lived in Portland, I used to give this hobo half of a sandwich, and the day I didn't give him one was the day he threw bottles at me.

With that being said, I'm glad that little turd is miserable. Your ex student, I mean.

Mom was a real magnet for winners.

I'm sure the new specs are extra hot on you. If not, just stand really far from the mirror when checking how you look in them.

You've had quite the interesting step dad situation. Can't wait to hear about the one who walked like a pony. ???

2010-03-16T08:00:35.936-07:00

"Build a cake" is a new one...my husband says "food store" instead of "grocery store" (which is what I say and, therefore, obviously correct) and every time he does, I kind of want to slap him in the mouth.

That skeezy student of yours is going to make an excellent douschey frat guy someday.
