So… where is everybody?

14 Comments »
I’ve been busy working, working on the house and trying to take care of the family. I feel like I’m about to fall down and go to sleep all the time. We have more recent pics of the house on our blog… http://www.stephensonmunchkins.blogspot.com/ if anyone’s interested in seeing them.

What’s everyone elses excuse for not posting? They better be good.

Also, I heard the Mings had a baby… a month ago! I would congratulate them, but c’mon… I have to hear this from the inlaws? REALLY? But really congratulations Mings on babay Olive. Also… Rachel wants to know what Spencer’s reaction was when he heard the name.

Well, I don’t know what is going on with the blog, everyone seems to think they are super busy! LOL.

I can’t believe you didn’t hear about baby Olive. And where are the pics, i bet we never see those, they probably have a blog but don’t want to give it out to us. Scam cut us off a long time ago. I will tell you my thoughts on the baby name (since probably no one will see this). (And this is just my opinion) I think people need to take a step back and think long and hard about the kid’s name. I think if there is a strong possibility that the kid will be ridiculed for the name, you should not consider it. Spencer’s dad told me yesterday that stuart is name his twins, Wrigley and Camdem…..Baseball parks! LOL. Camdem, ..ok, i’ve actually heard that. With that being said, i don’t think Cameron really wanted to go with the name, i think he was pushed into it if you know what i mean.

When is the house going to be finished?

Names are funny. What’s perfectly normal to one person is absurd to another. There are definantly names that I would never use and names I laugh at everytime I hear them. For instance, my Grandmother thinks we should call Benj “BJ”… and trying to convinse her that we shouldn’t is like trying to convinse Doms that wheat is good for you! She says it’s manly, lol… too funny.

What are the odds that Cam will ever post some pics? What are the odds he will ever call me and tell me about the baby? Since it makes him uncomfortable to talk to people on the phone, I’ll just be waiting until he’s ready.

The house should be done within the next month. Are you guys gonna come visit once we are in? lol As soon as I finish this post I’m headed out to work on our Pergo. As for being bussy, I am… but I’ll still check the blog daily and if someone else has posted I’ll always respond. That’s not to much to ask for being able to stay in touch.

Tuffy, right on. Seth… not so much. Unless your ethnic background is the reason for your baby’s crazy name, then you KNOW it’s crazy, and that’s why you chose it. In other words, it’s not “normal” to those people as Seth seems to believe. They chose it because they think it makes their special little twerp that much more special. Ri-di-cu-lous. For this reason I have chosen to look in the updated baby name books and choose the most common names for my kids (well you know, if something were to go terribly wrong). I hear about new babies and their crazy names all the time these days. It is one hellzapoppin’ trend!

So I blog. Soon I’ll halo. Of course tuffy you’d be interested to know that my mom surprised me with news that she and Mitch will be coming here tomorrow! They’ll be here until Tuesday of next week. So that of course means no halo until then. alright time for bed now. Big gay tomorrow. I’ll check the blog!

Michael… are you an idiot or just the most argumentative twerp of all time? I in no way stated any of the things you observed in my post. What I meant was exactly what you said. What I consider a ridiculous name, some people don’t… if they want it to be different or they actualy like it or it’s ethnic, doesn’t matter, they would still give their kid a name I wouldn’t. I blame the hippies! Anyway…

Good to hear from you guys! (Even if Doms can’t touch his fingers to the keyboard without straining to stir things up ) Glad to know you aren’t all dead… or something less drastic. Hope we can all be more dillegent posters from here on out… I missed the blog.

so I guess my credit card that pays for the blog expired or something. I keep getting shut off notices for ttowbloggers. U guys want to keep it alive?

And yes i think Olive is destined for some ridicule. maybe she has a nice middle name like Cameron she can go by.

Comment by yo yo ma — May 22, 2008 @ 9:17 am

When you say destined for ridicule… does that mean you plan on ridiculing her? Just curious. lol

I’m all about keeping the blog going. We have some classic moments on here.

Seth, again, you’re so weird! “What’s perfectly normal to one person is absurd to another.” That says you believe that some people think crazy names for their kids are normal. Case closed. I acknowledged that you don’t agree with it (”Tuffy, right on. Seth… not so much.”). I just made the point that you aren’t accurate for saying it the way you did.

I want to clear something up here. Once and for all, is it true that Michael Chai’s dad not only refuses to pay taxes, but has even proven in court that the constitution says we don’t have to?

Comment by DOMS 287 — May 22, 2008 @ 11:17 am

Going to spencer’s comment, i saw we keep the blog alive, just not this one. Tonight i’ll create a blog on blogspot (which is free and i’ll copy all the comments from here to the new blog, that way we’ll have years of history! LOL)

I also agree with Spencer and Michael, if you really like the name and it is a good fit for the kid then go with it. However; nowadays, i think people do things just to be different and that IS STUPID! Like baggy pants of sideways hats, just begging for attention; and most of the time, the attention isn’t the kind you want.

I don’t know about Michael Chai’s dad, but hopefully he and spencer never get audited! LOL. There is a guy in Jersey who was recently acquitted for not paying taxes because he says it was not a law! Personally the gov’t takes way too much money and their needs to be some serious reform, and non of these dems or repubs are going to get it done.

I hope the new blog is better than this one. We need some bells and whistles.

Oh and good news… Romney is spending the weekend or something with our next great president.

Comment by DOMS 287 — May 22, 2008 @ 11:40 am

Hopefully that means he is going hunting in the woods by himself, cause we will definitely not have a “great” president this year.

OK FOLKS, THIS IS THE END OF TTOWNBLOGGERS.COM. It was a good run, but The Boss’ credit card just expired so they are pulling the plug, the good news is i started a blog over on blogspot; so the URL is ttownblogger.blogspot.com I have painstakingly moved all the past blogs to the new site, You will probably have to have a gmail account to log in and post a comment, but i think everyone does, plus it will be a good excuse for you to create your own family blog like sethels and the cummings. Ok folks, see you on the flip side of the portal.
