People you can trust

There are two people in my life who never fail to send me only forwards of interest. Seriously, I have never regretted taking the time to read a single forward or link sent by my mom or my sister. Even still, sometimes I don't get around to reading them. That is the case with this link my sister sent last week which I only checked today when she brought it up. I was in tears laughing from the start- The text is below but Click here for why having a toddler is like being at a frat party go there to read all the comments and all- plus my sister assures me that the actual blog is a good read usually too.

I laughed and laughed- seriously all so true.

Here's the text:

Why Having a Toddler is
Like Being at a Frat Party*

Thursday, June 10, 2010

*That one frat party I've ever been to, having gone to a Very Serious Arts College.

10. There are half-full, brightly-colored plastic cups on the floor in every room. Three are in the bathtub.

9. There's always that one girl, bawling her eyes out in a corner.

8. It's best not to assume that the person closest to you has any control over their digestive function.

7. You sneak off to the bathroom knowing that as soon as you sit down, someone's going to start banging on the door.

6. Probably 80% of the stains on the furniture contain DNA.

5. You've got someone in your face at 3 a.m. looking for a drink.

4. There's definitely going to be a fight.

3. You're not sure whether anything you're doing is right, you just hope it won't get you arrested.

2. There are crumpled-up underpants everywhere.

1. You wake up wondering exactly how and when the person in bed with you got there.


here are a few more that were added as comments that made me laugh too:

There is a fair chance that you will only understand 10 percent of what anyone says to you, even though they speak with great passion and in a loud voice.

there's always that one person who's just begging to be picked up.


If there's a wet spot in the bed, you just throw a towel over it or move to the other side.

-They want to play the same song over and over again and sing only to the refrain, poorly.

- At least 10 times somebody will be yelling "Hey, watch this".

- Spinning around and flapping your arms counts as dancing.


Anyone with an open cup is likely to spill.


You find yourself saying things like, "Get that damn squirrel out of the house and stop feeding him the expensive cereal bars." No one bats an eye.


some little guy is going to spit up and then pass out with his face in your cleavage and a drunken smile on his face.


someone is always taking your keys from you

People can't climb the stairs without using their hands.

No one walks in a straight line and they randomly fall down.
