Somewhere inside of me, a screw ball redhead is trying to get out.

Picture it, Sicily 1923... Ok, sorry. Just channeling Sophia from "The Golden Girls" for a second there. But seriously, picture it: me fixing dinner. The kids are in the living room playing, the windows are open, letting the gentle, clean breeze drift through the house. Uh-oh. The food is too hot for the kids. I don't want to put it in the fridge as I've got enough crap stuff in there already. Ah, the window sill over the sink. The cool breeze with gently cool their plates. CRAP!!! Gentle breeze became strong gust! Plates have fallen out of the window! I traipse outside to see if anything is salvageable...not so much. I look up to see our teenage neighbor and her boyfriend snickering. Oh well. Chicken nuggets and macky-cheese it is then.
Yeah, that TOTALLY happened last night. I had made the kids some yummy meals and they simply FELL OUT OF THE WINDOW. There was chicken stew with rice, grapefruit segments, green beans and nilla wafers all down the side of the house. It's of note that the kitchen window is near the road, and is also visable to a major street. Wonder how many people saw?
Go on, laugh. I would laugh too. This kind of thing doesn't happen to everyone folks, only me and Lucy Ricardo. I hope this somehow brightened your day!

I would have at lest checked to see how MUCH dirt was on there. I dont let the chickadees eat off the floor, but I do all the time. Consider it my attempt at not wasting food? Bummer deal dude...

Too funny, only in hindsight, I'm sure! I would be so chapped if I had to start over with dinner! And, just wait...those snickering teens will have their moment sometime this week, too. Karma. One of my greatest friends!

I would NEVER (chuckle) laugh at (chuckle) such a (chuckle) thing. I'm here to always (chuckle) support you (BUWHAHAHAHA).

Alright. Seriously. Damn, that sucked. I would be crying like the avatar photo in The Obnoxious SAHM.
