Holy SHIT it’s been so long since we’ve posted anything on
this blog, I almost forgot we were the ones who wrote it! Here I was, thinking “who
are these hilarious bitches?” Then I figured it out. And I patted myself on the
back for being so damn wonderful.
So since I’m sure everyone reading knows by now, there is a
very good reason that we haven’t been posting as much lately…Lindsay had an
alien.
Er.
A parasite?
Crap. That’s not it either…
I don’t remember the word for it but he’s small and wriggly
and needy and will steal your heart with his little face. We considered writing
about the big day in the hospital but…we were otherwise preoccupied. In between
contractions Lindsay wasn’t exactly thinking “I wonder if Sara’s writing this
all down for a blog post later? Because this shit is amusing as all hell.”
Anyways. Let’s get up to speed on where everyone’s lives are
at since William graced us with his presence in June, shall we? Let’s see here…
Mom and Dad went on a road trip to Arizona for a million
years while Sara and Grandma threw keggers at their house and generally just
fucked shit up. Lindsay’s been smearing poop in William’s hair and spilling beer
on him every chance she gets. Jesse’s been experimenting with various styles of
facial hair to see which one makes him look the most like a predator. And Tucker?
He’s just been all emo now that there’s a new guy pilfering all of his attention
and cuddles.
Since Lindsay’s been preoccupied, our email threads have
been far less entertaining. But here’s one between Mom and I after I was
brutally attacked while at work:
Sara: THERE WAS A
SPIDER IN MY FUCKING CUBICLE HOLY FUCKING SHIT I WORK IN AN OFFICE THIS SHIT
SHOULD NOT BE SOMETHING I NEED TO DEAL WITH FUCKFUCKFUCKFUCKFUCKFUCK
…I made Cameron kill it for me. Christie just laughed at me
running away going “Your sister just gave fucking birth and look at you
whimpering over a fucking spider.”……I have no regrets.
Mom: Well, to
your credit, you didn’t have to assist in the birth, so a spider is still worse
than sitting in a waiting room.
Sara: I told them daddy traumatized me by throwing them at
me when I was young. He’s not here to defend himself.
Note: though he didn't *actually* throw any spiders at me, he would totally mime chucking them in my face to make me flinch. I wasn't lying about the trauma. Just the method.

Mom: My lovely children.
Sara: You’d
do the same thing don’t even lie.
Mom: What same do I do? Run from spiders? I
don’t think so.
Sara: Throw daddy under the bus to defend yourself.
Mom: Oh,
that. I do that in my sleep.
When Mom and Dad went on that road trip, I housesat for
them. My first attempt at bringing all of my work things with me for the next
morning didn’t go so well, as I informed Lindsay the next day in an email:
Sara: I went back
to Mom and Dad’s last night to housesit. I forgot:
A bra
Razor
Hairdryer
Deodorant
So now I’m at the office with my hair fucked up, 1 inch leg
hair in a short skirt (that’s all I brought with me for work today), smelling
like a 50 year old man, and no bra.
I don’t think I’ll ever have my life all together.
Lindsay: That’s
okay. Will managed to poop on his bedroom wall. He got his first bath last
night because when Jesse was changing him, he pooped and then peed in his own
face. FUCKING HILARIOUS. Jesse and I have been eating a lot of ice cream and drinking
a lot of beer. I'm constantly wondering if my one-beer-an-hour strategy is
actually OK or if William's meals are spiked with alcohol.
Okay. I think that brings everything about up to speed at
the present. Which is a Friday afternoon at the office. Dad is usually in a
good mood on Fridays, but today he’s particularly chipper. You can always tell
because he will absolutely refuse to stop trolling people. Here are a few
things I’ve heard come out of his mouth since he arrived this morning:
Celeste: Brock, I’ve
got to leave for a few minutes to run to the doctor. I’ll be back soon.
Dad: *loudly
yelling across the office floor* Is it because you have AIDS?
Celeste: Shit no!
Dad: Oh, so you’re
pregnant then? NICE!
A company-wide email was sent out with details on Friday Husky
potlucks. There’s something like six UW alumni in our office compared to two Cougs.
I, for one, feel forced into a hostile work environment…but when I tried to file
a complaint they told me it was unfounded. Humph. Dad decided to hit reply-all
and sent this:
“About 80% chance you
guys will lose to Boise”
Then a single email just to me...:
“…if this is what HUSKY nation is all about I’ll be a COUG…pussies.”
Later, a coworker sent Dad and me a lunch invitation:
Christie: Ray and
I are going to eat Mexican (sit outside) if you two weirdos want to join.
Dad: Not me
bitches. I got important shit to do.
Christie:
Punkassbitch (both of you)
