The Scissors Strike Again

Man! I have been so careful with keeping all scissors out of reach since Erika's incident.

Well last night after cutting the elastics out of the girls piggy tails I carelessly put the scissors on the bathroom counter.

Cereal time came around and Annika had to run to the biffy. I realized she was taking way too long so I went in there and she was sitting on her potty. Okay. Things looked fine.

The scissors were sticking out of the drain in the sink. Weird.

So then Annika stands up and I notice the long hairs falling around her. She had cut her hair in two spots!! I was pulling strands of hair off her head and off her nightie! She then got a little upset and started to sob. I couldn't really give her too much shit seeing as this was really my fault for leaving the stupid scissors within reach. Stupid!! Stupid!!

So they have both done this now. Hopefully they got it out of their system and don't do it again. And hopefully I have learned my lesson. Hopefully....

A Classic!!

This is for all you Kids in the Hall junkies out there! If you are a fan I am sure you will remember this little diddy:

Smokin' on a night train, chewin' on a jelly roll,

Smokin' on a night train, chewin' on a jelly roll,

I'm runnin' up a flag without a pole,

I'm walkin' on a shoe without a sole,

Smokin' on a night train, chewin' on a jelly roll.

(OK here i' comes, lesson one.)

You can't cook an egg unless you got yourself a frying pan.

(You know it's the truth.)

You can't cook an egg unless you got yourself a frying pan.

You shouldn't rob a bank without a plan,

You shouldn't use your tongue to stop a fan.

Smokin' on a night train, chewin' on a jelly roll.

(Now here come lesson number two.)

Shouldn't wanna do it if you don't want to not do it right.

Eba-dabba-dooba-daba-deba-daba-do, all right.

(I ain't makin' this up.)

You don't go dancin' in the day,

You don't go golfin' in the night.

Smokin' on a night train, chewin' on a jelly roll.

(Yeah.)

Smokin' on a night train, chewin' on a jelly roll.
