The bad news is that this has made it so that I have less time for blogging :0(
The good news is that Max is feeling better :0)
The bad news is that he gave all of his germs to me :0(
The good news is that due to my cold, now when I sing, I can hit all the low notes :0)
The bad news is that I still can't sing :0(
The good news is that today I got everything done on my "to do" list :0)
The bad news is that it was yesterday's list :0)

Ever since Max was a baby we've called him by his nickname "Pookers. Over the years, we've created several different versions of his nickname, for example Pookydoo, Pookerama, Pooks-a-doodle, Pookernoodle, Pooker-doodle-doo, The Pookernator...........
You get the picture.
Sometimes when we don't want Max to know what we're talking about, we will spell words. Unfortunately, Max has caught on to this and can recognize certain words we spell such as "Max" and "nap" will figure out what I'm saying and then "I NOT TAKE A NAP! I ALSO NOT SLEEPY!!! MY EYES ARE ALSO OPEN!!!!
For a while, we used code words such as "siesta" instead of nap. The kid caught on to that too.
So last week, I started using pig latin.
Today, I needed to run a quick errand and didn't want Max to freak out when he found out I was leaving without him so I asked Brielle to "Atch way the id kay while I oh gay to the ore stay."
Max heard this and said....
"I NOT AN IDKAY!! I'm POOKERAMA!! POOKERAMA!! POOKERAAAAAAAMMMMAAA!!!
I wonder how long it would take him to figure out "Ubbi dubbi"*

On another note, do you think that coughing can count as a cardio workout?

And now for the game you've all been waiting for!
WORD VERIFICATION WEDNESDAY!!!
Go to the comment form, look at the word verification code, come up with a definition for it and type it in the comment box!
It's fun!!
I was disappointed last week that nobody wanted to answer my essay question about the wind speed velocity of an African swallow vs a European swallow.
(sigh)
It's OK. I don't feel too bad.
really.
Today, if you don't feel like defining a WV word, you may leave a comment in pig latin. (however, if anyone leaves a comment in ubbi dubbi, I will not take responsibility for the mocking that is sure to ensue) (I might even participate in said mocking) (In fact, I will probably be the instigator of the mocking)
Ready, Set, GO!
