Pets, Hooters & The Kid Test

Boy, a lot of emotion this morning between 'picking your pet or your spouse' and the woman named Stacy who called in to say how upset she was/is that her husband took their 11 year old son to hooters after a sports win. Now, I ended up sounding like I would chose my cat, Pepe Le Meow over my husband; however, I did not say that (guilty by omission I guess) but at the same time, what a silly question, right?! LOL That's all we got folks...silliness. :-P

As for the father who took his 11 year old to hooters, I am not sure it was such a bad thing as the mom made it out to be, but then again, I do not have kids nor do I know the situation at home for that mom and her husband and kid (s). I do know that I personally think there was nothing wrong with it and throwing the servers under the bus is the wrong direction to take. I'm pretty laid back though and prefer to 'pick my battles.'

NOW...THIS IS FUN! I DO NOT THINK I AM READY FOR KIDS...YET...LOL...READ ON AND TAKE THE TEST!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
