Colloquialisms 'r us

"I wish I had a dollar for every time the [trash can] lid didn't stay open for me!"

At first, that statement struck me as funny, thinking that J doesn't have a sense of the value of a dollar. But then I realized that we do live near a 'Dollar Tree', and she loves shopping there with me. Teachable moments sneak up on you wherever you are...

Other phrases I've heard of late:
"Oh goodness gracious!"
"Who the? What the?"
"Who needs boys?"

Who, indeed?

On an unrelated note, I just got back from a meeting with my boss. J attended and was outstanding. She's just a really good girl. Now she's looking for attention (obviously). I also have laundry waiting, a tempo run, plus wrap-up work from the aforementioned meeting.

I'd really like to take a nap.
