Thursday 13 has started to do themes. I’m not sure how well I’ll do with this. I’ve already missed a couple of them, and may intentionally skip a couple. For May 9th it’s “Gross” as in the number 144 or any other definition of gross. You’ll have to excuse me if I get a little icky here. 13 Gross things in my life.
1. Something in the upstairs bathtub. It seems to be some sort of wet fabric stuffed into a Bionicles container. It smells moldy. I’m afraid to open it and find out what it is.
2. My workshop. This is gross as in big, as in cleaning it up is going to be a big job.
3. The way my dd’s “friends” have been treating her. Are all 10 and 11 year old girls so cliquish?
4. My son’s smelly feet.
5. My son’s road-rash from skate boarding. I tell you, if it isn’t one thing with that kid then it’s another.
6. When a romance novel gets love confused with rape.
7. The number of times Prince Edward, George the IVths brother, had his men whipped. I’m just guessing here.
8. $21.38 Billion – PepsiCo’s gross receipts for 12/29/07.
9. $43.34 Billion – Johnson and Johnson’s gross receipts for 12/30/07. Kind of makes you feel small, don’t it.
10. The number of math problems the girl still has to do for homework. Sigh.
11. –$14,074 billion– the gross national product for 2007. I barely passed Econ 101.
12. $526.4 billion – the gross national product when I was a kid. Did I mention I’m not real big on Economics? Still, it seems a bit bigger to me now than it was then.
13. Gas. I’ll let you figure out which I mean.
