last year, corduroy licorice wanted to sleep like a baby, so his dad built him a 7 x 4 foot crib and his mom sewed him an adult-size onesie.

this year, corduroy licorice wanted to sleep like a log, so his dad swept out the fireplace and his mom fire-retarded a down duvet.

if i eat a cinnabon for dinner, and ONLY a cinnabon for dinner, that's not a real dietary transgression...is it? i mean, it's not like i'm eating a steak and potato meal and THEN a cinnabon on top of all that...now is it?

torrez once said that one of the best parts of adulthood is being able to eat ice cream for dinner whenever you want.

so, by default, isn't eating a cinnabon for dinner just one more great way to celebrate the wonder of being a free-thinking, free-eating adult?

i thought you'd agree.

it's not like i'm definitely going to eat one tonight or anything. i mean, that would involve driving to the mall, finding a decent parking place and walking to the third floor to the sweet-smelling, tummy-warming, tongue-teasing nirvana of cinnabon central.

i'm just musing here, is all. and isn't musing another privilege of adulthood?

i thought you'd agree.

there was an msnbc.com article today about the release of the independent council's report on the clinton/lewinsky scandal.

�"'president clinton's offenses had a significant adverse impact on the community, substantially affecting the public�s view of the integrity of our legal system,' stated the report."

not to mention substantially affecting the public's view of ditsy skank ho's.

but this quote below was the best part of the article. it's the funniest thing i read all day:

"clinton spokeswoman jennifer palmieri said, 'it�s not clear what the purpose of the report is other than to promote robert ray�s senate campaign, monica lewinsky�s HBO special and the paula jones vs. tonya harding boxing match. the release of the report is a nonevent. this investigation started as a political process and it ends as a political process.'�

baha!
