friends are more important than money


Ever shop at Lululemon? I used to think Nike clothes and gear were expensive. But Lululemon wins.

They have quality workout clothes at premium prices. The nice thing is they give reusable bags with your purchase. Why not? You spend enough when you walk up to the counter.

Ah yes, friends are more important than money. But without money (and lots of it) you can't buy Lululemon. 

Warning: This blog post was just for fun.

Mom, You're Saying it Wrong

"Mom, you're saying it wrong." My 12 year old was correcting my pronunciation of Gangnam. You know, the video that took the world by storm. The viral Korean music video that has gotten billions of hits.

"How do I say it then?" I asked.

"It's Gang Nam. Like your tooth has "gone numb". You say it Gone Numb."

"Uh okay "gone numb." Got it. But then which syllable do you accentuate?"

"I donno. Let me check the video... It's GONE numb."

"Okay so I'll say it GONE numb."

I took out all the laugher from the conversation so that you can understand our silly banter without sarcasm.

So difficult to communicate with the next gen. I just got a lesson in Korean!

But I figured if you're like me, you'll need to lesson so that you can fit in with the teens in your life. LOL

Tip: Lower your speaker volume before you hit play.

Lost Sock

A few years ago, my young son's socks kept falling off at night. He'd wake up and we would wonder how come he only had one sock on in the morning. I guess there's probably a pile of dusty socks under his bed.

One morning he walked out of the bedroom and his (barefoot) big brother said, "Hey, you just lost a sock!" My pre-schooler replied with attitude, "Hey you just lost two socks!"
