Apparently he and his geek squad have been using it for years.  He would take credit for the Declaration of Independence if it wasn&#8217;t signed.  It is so annoying.  Now he&#8217;s also all offended that I said I was Mrs. Nerd Hag, but I got him back because according to MSNBC.com, he is suffering from <a href=\"http:\/\/www.msnbc.msn.com\/id\/8962022\/site\/newsweek\/\">Irritable Male Syndrome<\/a>. I would say the whole test was bullshit, but I live with him and the test kinda has a point. Besides, it makes me really happy to tease him about going through <a href=\"http:\/\/theirritablemale.com\/\">Male Menopause<\/a>! I know, that&#8217;s mean, and I am screwed &#8217;cause menopause will head my way someday (a long, long time from now)! Don&#8217;t you worry, I&#8217;ll get mine, but for now I&#8217;m gonna have some fun.  On the flip side, I really can&#8217;t be too mean; after all,  he is the one with the job.<\/p>\n<p>I am headed to Bama next week, my nephew was finally released from the hospital, Weezie&#8217;s throwing a baby shower for her sister, and the Prattville Lions have their season opener in Wetumpka. If that wasn&#8217;t enough fun, my niece, Sr. Marie Therese, and some of the sisters from her <a href=\"http:\/\/www.stjosephmonastery.com\/\">convent<\/a> in Portsmouth are going to be on &#8220;<a href=\"http:\/\/www.ewtn.com\/rock\/index.asp\">Life On The Rock<\/a>&#8221; September 1st, and I am going to attend the taping. Don&#8217;t worry, I can watch my language and quit smoking when I have to. I will be perfectly respectable, just like Tommy Lee at college (well, almost). <\/p>\n<p>Seriously, did you watch that show? It was sad, funny, pathetic and humbling all at the same time. I hate reality TV, but I have already watched Veronica Mars like a hundred times already, so I had to do something. Plus Tommy Lee is still kinda hot if you gave him a radiation shower and a flea dip. Speaking of which, you should see this dog on the news! It just won some <a href=\"http:\/\/www.latimes.com\/news\/local\/la-me-uglydog15aug15,0,4501294.story?coll=la-tot-promo&#038;track=pacifictime\">ugliest dog contest<\/a> out in California. I thought my drama teacher&#8217;s dog, Muffin, was hideous. WHOA! That reminds me, settle a bet; who gets credit for that phrase, Keanu Reeves or Joey (er Joseph) Lawrence?   <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>My husband is trying to take credit for teaching me the word &#8220;craptastic&#8221; like it is &#8220;his&#8221; word or something.
