Monday!

Hurray for Mondays...
Without Mondays everybody would hate Tuesdays. We spent five hours at the Cleveland Natural History Museum. It was fun but my old arthritic knees are making me aware of some issues.

The birthday boy got a dinosaurly decorated cake and a neato dinosaur book from the museum people. He really enjoyed it when everyone sang the birthday song to him. On a side note there are so many cool/nerdy items there for sale. Expensive though. Did I mention he likes dinosaurs?

My youngest is throwing a tantrum right now because he does not want to go to pre-k. He got embarrassed at school in the gross motor skills room aka the playroom. It is interesting how things get renamed with clinical sounding names. Almost New Speakish.

Well I am off to run errands and drop the offspring at school.

Tomorrow is the day. My oldest son will be six years old. The party will be at the Cleveland Natural History Museum. The food will be at grandma's house. This should be fun.

I have had a couple of people complain to me about credit cards recently. Here is the best advice I can give about credit cards.

Own stock in the credit card companies. They make money and will always make money.

If you have a credit card balance pay it off ASAP.

If you don't have a 0% call the card every month and ask for a special interest rate or any interest rate reduction you can get. I had a card that went from 17% to 3% in after asking on the phone. It was great!

Once you get you card down to zero balance. Do not cancel it. It will affect your credit rating because fica scores are messed up.

Inspired by Anne Rice

Anne Rice is the world famous author who wrote "Interview With the Vampire". A vampire is a mythical human like creature that is incredibly charismatic, lives on blood, and can transform into a bat. It has a lot of hit points.
I think Anne should have written the book about a different mythical creature. I think she should have written the book about a web cam stripper working her way threw graduate school. The book could be called "Interview With the Web Cam Stripper" and the second book would be called "The Web Cam Stripper, Candi".
The movie rights would be sold off almost instantly. Instead of the handsome Brad Pitt and Antonio Banderas playing the main characters. We could have two equally ravishing actresses playing the roles. I was thinking that Salma Hayek and Angelina Jolie could play the main characters.
Yes I know that Tom Cruise was in the movie but I dont support Scientology or other harmfull cults.
