Welcome to Friday Flip-Offs!
And welcome Lady Bloggers Society gals…I had no idea I’d be FB blogger today! Otherwise, I would have cleaned up this house with all the visitors arriving.
Who am I kidding? No I wouldn’t have. I mean, I love you ladies, but not that much.
By the way, I’m not *always* as virtually foulmouthed as I am on Fridays. I am, however, usually snarky. Check out my Greatest Hits for more of a sampling of the fare you’ll find here (you get food, too, by the way).
Friday Flip-Offs is my way of ridding myself of weekday angst and frustration before heading into the weekend. I virtually flip off whoever is on my last nerve. It’s very cathartic. The theory is that I don’t take anything out on my husband and kids, although the jury’s out on that.
Join in the fun! Don’t spend your weekend stewing over the little people and annoying situations that got to you this week! But please, if you link up, show me some love via text link or using the photo, yo.
[I do want to shamelessly beg you to take a peek over at my giveaways for an Indaway Designs Retro Apron, a Yum Yum Pendant, a $40 CSN Stores gift card and a Frecklebox Personalized Kids' Gifts $30 credit. I don't normally run giveaways en masse] Thank you!
Let’s go flip some stuff off!
To people who constantly complain about being broke, but somehow manage to travel internationally, engage in frequent self-pampering, or hire babysitters once a week: FLIP OFF. What am I doing wrong? What secret did I miss out on?
To my budget : FLIP OFF. You’re not big enough. That’s why I don’t get to travel {let alone internationally}, engage in self-pampering, or hire babysitters.
To Chuck E Cheese: FLIP OFF. I hate that your marketing geniuses have sucked my children into believing that your restaurant is the coolest place to have a birthday party. As a positive, at least you serve beer.
To my adult acne: FLIP OFF. AGAIN. You’re getting worse AGAIN!
To fast food: FLIP OFF. Must you be the easiest, and sometimes seemingly the only, option when I’m out and about with the kids during summer? I feel like a walking grease pit.
All better now. Now…go check out Lish at A Beautiful Mess…she’s joining in, and Mis over at Miel et Lait…as are some other bloggy friends! Link up and join the bloghop!

Found you from the Lady Bloggers and LOVE your site! I read the Birthday present post and LOL. I couldn’t post a comment there, so I’m telling you here. That was brilliant, and I totally think Bret Michels is bald under that hat and wig! Great idea to ban bday presents everywhere!!

PS, it’s cheaper at Chucky Cheese to buy the pizza, drinks, and tokens, nix the silly hat your child could care less about, and just call it a “birthday party”. Seriously save a ton! they let you bring your own cupcakes/cake too!

I’m with you on the budget and fast food! Whenever I’m out it’s like I HAVE to stop and eat, I don’t get it, oh well.

sorry this is coming in late, Gigi. It’s been terrribly busy on my side. But just wanted to say congrats on being the FB and that I fully understand the fast food and budget problem. The safest place to be is in your house!
