I love my family

How many other people have their moms call them to dish about what the vice president is up to?

*raises her hand*

No, I'm not kidding. :D

Why does this totally not surprise me?

[jadestrick.livejournal.com]

*giggles* I just kinda nod and smile most of the time. :D

Ah, now see, Mom and I kinda play the 'who can stump who by knowing the most up-to-date news' stuff... It's rather amusing.

And your Mom is adorable.

[jadestrick.livejournal.com]

Ha!!! My main news sources are usually Mom, Alli, and Yahoo. :P So when she calls, it's usually to bitch and complain. :P

Daw! I'll tell her you said so! *hugs* (I swear she'll get all blushy.)

Heehee!

Glad Mom will enjoy.

And I seem to have become royally addicted to Fox News.

To the point where I am slightly annoyed that the boss didn't let us close the office early on the 15th cause I wanted to go to one of the Tea Parties.

[allisnow.livejournal.com]

Check the tea party website... some of them are running into the evening.

[triciabyrne1978.livejournal.com]

I know... but the 2 closest are in Birmingham and Atlanta... both of which are about 1.5 to 2 hours away.... and if I get out of there at 7, I'd have to swing by the house to pick Mom up, grab food to eat while I drive... head into one of the cities.... and then not get there till about 9. To turn around and come home??

It's a bit too much for too little I'm afraid.

I totally wanted to head into Atlanta for Sean Hannity's party, though.

[allisnow.livejournal.com]

Yeah, that wouldn't really make sense.

We'll have to settle for watching it on TV.

[triciabyrne1978.livejournal.com]

Yes, and then I won't have to worry about trying to figure out wtf Sean Hannity IS. I can watch him and Glenn and Bill and everyone else...

[allisnow.livejournal.com]

It'll be interesting :)

I'm going to print out one of the signs they have on their website and put it in my car door. I was thinking about wearing a tea bag somewhere on my person but I thought that might be a little too obscure ;)

[triciabyrne1978.livejournal.com]

Tea bag earrings?

[jadestrick.livejournal.com]

LMAO!!! I've gotten my parents addicted to this particular tea I love and adore and they're all shocked because it's ridiculously expensive and then my brain goes toward the tea parties and well, there ya go.

*iz random*

[triciabyrne1978.livejournal.com]

Oh?

What tea is this?

Cause, having given up coffee for Lent.... Tea has become my addiction (though there are some days I've gone with absolutely NO caffeine -- which is just downright scary).

I have several teas still from my last trip to England... but I'm always open for trying out a new one.

[jadestrick.livejournal.com]

(I wish to GOD I could go without caffeine. I keep thinking about all the problems my dad's dealing with because of his caffeine consumption. *sigh*)

It's this stuff. I'd say it's cheaper online, but with shipping and all... B&N used to sell it, but Whole Foods and World Market are the only two places I can find that sell it now and it's around $11. *headdesk* Stupid addictive stuff.

Edit: Proper English, please. :P

[allisnow.livejournal.com]

LOL yay for awesome moms!

[jadestrick.livejournal.com]

*giggles* Of course, it's more of a "Can you BELIEVE..." speech.

Seriously, moms rock. :P

[triciabyrne1978.livejournal.com]

Now, see, mom and I totally do that.

ALL THE TIME.

That, and my mother's obsession with Glenn Beck is kinda scary... though I think Dad should be more worried than I am.

[allisnow.livejournal.com]

*laughs* I can see Glenn being kinda addictive... if I was able to watch his show more often, I would probably be a little obsessed as well.

I am glad that your mom also rocks :D
