Take a picture. It lasts longer.

Yes, I realize there are a lot of us, and yes, I also use my fingers to keep track. No, this is not a school field trip and seeing you with your eyeballs bugging out of your head makes you creepy.

We went for Chinese for dinner. It’s been a day and I’m tired. I’ve cooked a full, multi-course meal for at least 8 people all week. Would be great to go out without the stare down like you’ve never seen a mother of ten before. I’m guessing this is how Kate, from Jon and Kate + 8 got that perma-crabby face. 

I’ve worked really hard to not let the face I make on the outside match the things I’m thinking on the inside. It isn’t always easy. I was in the local drug store and someone crossed my path that gave me a sketchy vibe. Not only did I make the face matching that thought on the outside, I added in an audible gasp for good measure. The look I got back makes me appreciate still being alive to retell that story. Today, it was especially obvious that this thought vs face thing is a real problem of epidemic type proportions. 

I want to know what people are thinking on the inside that creates that face on the outside. I am gonna guess it’s not, “Wow, that lady is so thin and youthful looking.” I’m also certain they aren’t thinking how lucky hubby is to be surrounded with so much estrogen every day. So what IS it?
