The Misadventures of Inertia Girl

Inertia, as we all remember from that high school physics class we took a bizillion years ago, has something to do with objects at rest wanting to stay at rest. (Which does help explain why rocks don't just get up an walk around on their own, but that's another story all together.) Inertia does have another definition (given to me courtesy of Merriam-Webster). It is an "indisposition to motion, exertion or change" and that just about sums my life in a nutshell.

You Call It June. I Call It Buying an Entire Mountain of Presents.

Does anybody else have a month where it seems as if every holiday/event/celebration falls? Ours is June.

On our celebration itinerary for this June:
Father's Day (an oldie but goodie)
The birthday of Youngest's youngest, Kidzilla
TLS's parent's anniversary
Our anniversary (numero 14, thanks for asking)
My cousin B's wedding
Middle's 40th birthday

I am officially in gift buying fatigue. We did come up with a great idea for a Father's Day gift for TLS's dad. We want to get together a gift basket of all the cliched Father's Day gifts from our childhood days, but I need some more suggestions. So far we've gotten: Old Spice, a tie, and soap on a rope. (And yes, you can still buy soap on a rope. In fact, there is an entire website, http://www.soaponarope.com/ - natch, where it seems there is every permutation of S.O.A.R. known to man.) Does anybody else have any 1970's era memories of buying your dad some cheesy gift?
