In the I-couldn’t-make-this-up-if-I-wanted-to-department, last night, in my dream, Antique Mommy and I foiled a terrorist plot.
Oh yeah we did.
I think we were successful because of our collective love for the short, choppy sentence combined with our deep and abiding affection for all things David Sedaris – who, I believe, would be simply delighted – albeit a bit disturbed – by his role as the unlikely catalyst for uniting a crime-fighting team.
And just so you know? AM and I stopped cars in the middle of a crowded road and FLIPPED THEM OVER.
Oh yeah we did.
So, dear readers, you can rest easy this Labor Day. Though dangers lurk in corners seen and unseen, Antique Mommy and I are ready and able to protect you and your family from evildoers.
And if our mad kah-RAH-tay skills don’t work, we can always go to plan B: Southern charm. With a little sarcasm thrown in for effect, of course.
By the way, if you’re wondering what convinced my subconscious that AM was the obvious other half to my dreamland terrorist-foiling duo, you need only look at this post.
The picture may not be her, but that’s a superhero cape if I ever saw one.



With you and AM at the helm, I can sleep better tonight. Sharpen that rapier wit ’til it shines. . .we need all the southern charm we can get.
Oh, I trained you well in the Dream Department. :)
My dream was not as heroic as yours, but it was an adventure. At one point, you and I were going through a drawer of antique silverware with Mama. I then got on a motorcycle(!) and scooted all over Meridian, which looked like a combination of Nashville, Dallas and NYC. :)
How many of those pain pills you been taking, honey?
ROFL!!! Fabulous!! Thanks for poppin’ in.~wink~
Too funny!!
Now BooMama what kind of cheese pizza did YOU have last night? Hee, hee…too funny.
Hm, I wonder if you guys can fight off the evils that lurk in the dark and mysterious corners of Finland, country of darkness and bears.
But wait, we don’t celebrate Labor Day in Finland, so maybe your guarantee of fighting off evil doesn’t apply to bloggers this far east of the States…
I’m just gonna have to report back to ya and let you know how it goes =)
God bless!
Boo Mama, how many pain pills with or without diet coke did you pop last night?? Pretty funky dream, though after heading over to Antique mommies site to see the photo, I do have to agree that it looks like a cape. I am glad you are feeling better, well enough to be back to super hero crime fighting. Whatever I dreamt last night was so boring that I can’t remember it.

Well Boomama I have to say, if Antique mommy cannot get rid of a mole in her back yard I really don’t feel to safe in the terrorist department, though you two together could always make them laugh themselves plum to death for sure.
I love you both and never miss a read from either of you.
So long as saving the world does not include you lifting any obscenely heavy EMPTY suitcases, I definitely think you two are the best two for the job! Having toddler boys? The absolute best training evah! :D
And the plus is that in your off time, the two of you would make each other laugh hysterically!
PS-Your housecleaning post inspired me to write today. Thanks!
So, does this mean you two will be off to compete for “Who Wants to Be the Next Super Hero?” I’d vote for you in a heartbeat.
I sense a costume based on t-shirts and capris with really sassy shoes.
That was a great post. Gutsy!
2 weeks ago I watched the ENTIRE Godfather saga. 12hrs mind you.
The night we finished, I had a dream I was being followed by the mafia while doing errands. No kidding.
Our minds are wildly trying to sort out all the stuff we shove in there.
David Sedaris AND a Ross “kah-RAH-tay” Geller reference all in one post? Makes me happy.
