Hey, It's Okay Tuesday!

I got this idea from Glamour magazine. They have a section called Hey, It’s Okay and will list a bunch of things to be okay about. I think I’m going to do this every Tuesday now. You're welcome to join in and do something like this on your diary. Doesn't have to be on a Tuesday either.

Hey, It's Okay....



To at first think that (: is a frown face and be all, “Why are you frowning at me?” And then be all, “Oh, never mind it’s a smile face. Carry on.”


To be looking forward to the reality show Big Brother.


To hate going to your husband’s work functions, especially when he goes off talking to his work friends and leaves you to tend to the kids.


To make a face when magazines remind you to “not forget about your man’s balls” during foreplay. I’m sorry, I WILL forget my man’s balls during foreplay. They do not look appealing. No offense.


To like going to Toys R Us as much as your kids do.


To have once eaten a bunch of the brownie batter just ‘cause you could. Being an adult rocks. Salmonella be damned.


To still be searching for the Snapple flavors created by Bret Michaels and Holly Robinson on The Celebrity Apprentice. I know they exist! It says so on the Snapple website.


To be looking forward to seeing Sex and the City 2 on Thursday despite the bad reviews. Hey, it’s two hours of kid free time complete with buttery popcorn. I’ll take it.


To be upset that ABC cancelled FlashForward. The ironic thing is, Ghost Whisperer will probably replace the time slot and I had been upset that CBS cancelled Ghost Whisperer earlier. ABC decided to take it on and I’m going to laugh if the show takes FlashForward’s slot. CBS? Wanna take FlashForward then? Please? Lifetime? FX? SyFy? SOMEONE!?


To love when your husband leaves you notes like this:

That makes me ridiculously happy about Ghost Whisper!

Leslie Greenwood said...

I love Toys R Us! I'm always amazed at how much stuff they carry and I want to buy everything. And yeah, being an adult rocks - I had 6 cherries on my sundae last night, just because I can!

Sarah said...

Regarding the balls and foreplay: Cosmo suggested "jiggling them as if you've got dice in your hand."

I told my fiance this, and I thought he was going to literally cry tears of pain at the mere suggestion.

Sara said...

While I don't quite get the Big Brother phenom., I'm totally guilty of loving that show for rocket scientists on ABC known as The Bachelorette.

I hate myself a little when I tell people that, but I still watch it.

AmyLK said...

Love notes are so sweet! and 2 hours of kid-free time is perfectly OK, even if the movie is bad.

The Boob Nazi said...

SATC2= painful. I still liked spending time with the four of them, but it was PAINFUL time.

Margaret said...

"To have once eaten a bunch of the brownie batter just ‘cause you could. Being an adult rocks. Salmonella be damned."

I did this pretty much the second I got my own place, and promptly threw up. :-D

As to notes, that is ADORABLE. The Husband over here makes up weirdo songs and sings them at me. I should start recording him. You know. For the blog.

Dee Crowe said...

Awww I love mushy love letters!

And yes, I agree about the brownie batter...being an Adult does rock...the same goes for chocolate chip cookie batter too...nom!

The Hollywood Memoirs said...

Glad I'm not the only one that misreads upside down smiley faces. What a sweet note! Happy Tuesday.

Samantha said...

You are so lucky to have a husband who will take the time to write a note like that! Mine doesn't even take the time to make a grocery list --- I still have to do it.

SATC2 is a great movie despite the reviews. I hope you have a great time and enjoy it as much as I did!

Randi Troxell said...

oh wow.. what a sweet note!!

happy tuesday!

Intense Guy said...

Speaking as a guy (TMI alert), foreplay in "that area" is highly overrated and if you skip it, its no great loss...

:)

Brandy said...

awww. what a sweet note. and toys r us is like a mommy break.

Shell said...

Well, speaking of balls...

It's okay to have snorted soda out of your nose when your husband and her friends were describing what their balls looked like after getting the big snip-snip.

Kristina P. said...

I am so sad about FF! I don't understand why they can't bring both FF back and V. Lost is now gone. Boooo.

Spot said...

That note from Tom = chock full of awesome!! Too sweet.

I'm sooo mad that they cancelled Flash Forward. That was my favorite new show. And it had such an exciting season finale!! And Ghost Whisperer is so over for me. They jumped the shark when they jumped ahead 5 years. And that creepy kid with no eyebrows that plays her son? No thank you! In the words of Natalie "I no YIKE him!"

I would kill for a note like that. Love it. ;)

Cheryl said...

Ah, the love note. Once in a while I get such a text and it always rocks my world.

Creepy Query Girl said...

It IS ok. I swear. But what the hell kind of magazines you been reading? lol

Jamee said...

What a sweet note!

Meeko Fabulous said...

I can't wait for Big Brother to start!

Sara said...

Dork

HECK YEAH!!!

No joke.

I lmao at the comment about the dice a commenter left.

:D

Or chocolate chip cookie dough. noms!

I heard that Bret Michaels may be a contender for the replacement of Simon on Idol. I admit I got giddy.

Have fun!

Never heard of FF. Hm. At least Ghost Whisperer got picked up. :)

He wins husband of the year. What a sweetie! How much nookie did that earn him? :D

Fran said...

Can we all have a copy of the note to leave on our kitchen worksurfaces? I guess the wrong name is a problem, but who cares.

Carrie said...

Oh yes, please SOMEONE take on FlashForward??!! It was JUST getting good...though feel free to replace Joseph Finnes with someone else, no one will notice ;)

Cheryl D. said...

I already blogged about SATC 2. It won't be the best movie you've ever seen. But it's light and fun, and you'll have a good time if you're not expecting a lot!

Mrs.Mayhem said...

What a sweet note! Wish my hubby was so appreciative when I've cleaned the house. You're a lucky woman!

blueviolet said...

I was looking for those Snapple flavors too! No luck here either.

Seriously, Big Brother....how soon?

Bossy Betty said...

Oh! The note is the best!!

Stace said...

Awww..what a sweet note. He isn't reading the male version of Cosmo is he? You know...the one that writes articles like "How to write a love note that will ensure she pays attention to your balls during foreplay" :P lol

Krystyn said...

Awww...that note from Tom. Sooo sweet. He better be careful, or he's going to have a reputation to uphold!

Linda Medrano said...

Holy friggen man balls! No! I say NO WAY! What on earth do they want us to do with those things?

Erin said...

You're hilarious -- Yes, I am doing all I can to avoid hairy man balls at all costs. But dude, I just could not stand Flash Forward for the simple reason that Joseph Fiennes' acting was SO BAD. Maybe he was having trouble focusing on his American accent, but he just came off like a weird robot.

Phoenix Peacock said...

love notes are by far the sweetest thing. well unless love notes are made with chocolate-thats the best thing ever! and I think raw eggs are not nearly as dangerous as reported. French Silk Pie is a family tradition and we eat it several times throughout the year, every year... it has 3 eggs that never get cooked. and no one I know has ever gotten sick from that pie. even when my husband ate the whole thing by himself.

Dawn said...

Your hubby is super sweet. Mine often leaves love notes in my lunch or under my pillow, or stuck to the fridge... This morning, however, he got creative and used a black sharpie draw a picture on my banana. Yep, I'll let you think about that... And, moving on.

It IS ok. Thanks for this weekly post :-)

Wombat Central said...

One of these weeks I'm going to join you on this!

We used to make cake batter in high school and eat half of it, then bake the other. Yummmmmm.

That is the sweetest dang note. *sniff*

Julianna said...

Do POst when you find the Snapple flavors...

Erin said...

Oh my hell! You are a hoot! Let's face it - a man's junk is not all that pretty. Sorry boys, but it's not.

Tracie said...

My husband has never, ever left me any kind of mushy note. If he did, I'd surely think he was having an affair or dying.

Natalie said...

I never get those kinds of notes from hubby...I'm jealous! And if you find the Snapple flavors, I hope you'll do a post about them because I can't find them, either!!

Tammy said...

I love Big Brother too! When does it come back??

I wish I got notes that that...:)

Debby said...

What a sweet hubby note.

I'd just leave the eggs out if I was going to eat brownie batter...now that sounds really good.

Foursons said...

Tom is a big ol' teddy bear! Awwwww *sniff sniff*

Janet said...

Just this evening I made brownies. And after I cracked the eggs I carefully washed my hands. You know, so as not to get salmonella? And then I licked the bowl.

Trac~ said...

Awww... how sweet and such a nice love note from the hubby! :o)

Karen Mortensen said...

I like notes left for me too. How sweet.

@ly said...

What a sweet note. I totally cracked up at the balls comment! LOL!

Leah Rubin said...

Raw brownie batter... raw cake batter... food of the gods!

Laura Ingalls Gunn said...

I ate half a bowl of Toll House dough and am thinking "Balls?" uh no.

Chris said...

AMEN to the brownie batter girl!!!! Being an adult DOES rock sometimes.

So, did you cry during the LOST finale?

Much More Than Mommy said...

That note is FREAKING AWESOME!

The Empress said...

Oh, that note is so very OK.

The Blue Zoo said...

Oh my gosh!! I am soooooo excited for Big Brother! I am a total addict.

Jenn@the loves of jenn said...

Well crap. How do I not hear about these show cancellations? I get all my TV updates from you. I LOVE Flash Forward almost as much as I like Ghost Whisperer. I know a lot of people who like it. What gives. So not OK ABC!

That note was so sweet. And Big Brother ROCKS!

Steph said...

Ewww balls are gross. See, you don't have to remember them to get notes like that.

Pat said...

Wait. They canceled Flash Forward? I didn't know that!

SATC2 - funny, funny, funny! Best line? "Lawrence of my labia!"

How cute is that love note from Tom? My neighbor used to get love notes from her husband as to wear he was putting his TONGUE later that evening, and my husband? Yeah, hon, don't forget to pick up the dry cleaning. A real romantic, that guy.

Pat said...

correct that: as to "where" he was putting his tongue. I got all hot and bothered just THINKING about it.

Life Without Pink said...

Awe how sweet is the note from your hubby! I haven't gotten one like that in a long time :(

elastamom.com said...

I almost spit out my coffee at the balls one!!! And I can't wait for SATC2 either...who cares if it's bad!! It has the girls and the fashion...and no kids allowed!

Mary said...

I hate it when my favorite shows get cancelled....I'm still bitter about Gilmore Girls.

That note is so sweet!!
