Tell your mom she’s pretty and she’ll do things for you

7:29 pm · Posted in General

A conversation…

Dylan: Mama, you pretty.
Me: *melts* Aw…you think Mama’s pretty?
Dylan: Yep.
{big hugs all around}
Me: That’s so sweet!
Dylan: I want to eat sumpin.
Me: Is that why you told me I’m pretty? Because you want me to fix you something to eat?
Dylan: Yep.
Me: Ha! Well, at least you’re honest.

There’s no doubt that he picked up on these tactics from his father. Though I guess it’s never to early to learn that a few compliments and a little ass kissing is a surefire way to get what you want, right? God bless ‘em. I love them to death. And I fall under the spell of their manipulative powers every time. However, I DO let them do it, so I guess I’m just as manipulative. :D How does that old adage go? A family that plots together…gets what they want in return? Er…something like that.

Three days ago, I was tagged for a lovely meme by Whitney. Due to my excessive laziness this week, I’m just now getting around to it.

How to play: Once you’ve been tagged you have to write a blog with 10 weird, random facts, habits, or goals about yourself — at the end choose 5 people to be tagged. You can’t tag the person/people that tagged you, be sure to leave them a comment, yadda yadda yadda. Let’s get to it!

Prepare for a list of total randomness. Seriously.

  • My middle name is Dyan, inspired by the actress Dyan Cannon. My mom really liked how she spelled her name.
  • I have a big scar on my knee from when I fell of my bike and skidded down the gravel driveway at age ten.
  • I stabbed myself in the thumb with a knife a couple of days ago. It sucked.
  • I love sour candy. My favorite being a tie between Sour Patch Kids and sour Starburst.
  • Zombies terrify me to the point of vivid, recurring nightmares.
  • I’d like to lose about 40 lbs, but am pretty positive it’s not going to happen any time soon.
  • Lolcats amuse me to no end.
  • I’m currently drinking Pepsi, even though I’m a Coke fan all the way. I’m only drinking it because it’s all that Pizza Hut had, and well, sometimes you just gotta take what you can get.
  • Rob & Big is mine and Josh’s favorite show. And it’s on MTV. That’s saying a lot.
  • I like cheese.

For the sake of continuing to spread this meme like the plague, I will now tag (er, infect?) five unsuspecting people from my blogroll. Caitlin, Shauna, Katharina, Sarah, and Jenn. Take it away ladies! Or don’t, I don’t care. I’ll still love you anyways.

    What a cute conversations! Boys certainly learn very young how to manipulate the girls with a few sweet words, kisses and gestures, don’t they? ;)

    And thanks for the tag. :P That makes five or six meme posts I need to do now, lol. Oh! I also have a big scar on my knee from falling off a bike onto a gravel driveway. In my case, it happened when I was five or six, and it was because some jerky kid shot a nerf ball at my bike, and it lodged in the wheel area and locked everything up, so I went flying. And I didn’t stab myself in the thumb, but I did cut open a deep V-shaped gash, thanks to not being careful about scissors!
