I was uploading my pictures of this past weekend a few nights ago with Big Mickey looking over my shoulder.

When I got to the pictures of the Burn the Witch night he gets pissed and exclaims, "WAIT A MINUTE, mommy. Go back to those pictures again?"

So I do.

"I thought you said that was a MOMMY NIGHT?" he asked in a very accusatory tone of voice.

"It was!" I replied.

"Then WHY do I see GUYS in the pictures? Guys can't be mommies! Oh wait, do they WORK there?" he asks, thinking he figured out who El Patria and Tashkajones brother are.

"Ummmmm yeah, sure ok, if you say so." I say.

I know, I  KNOW bad mommy for lying right? Don't worry. He was on to me.

He said, "HEY! Wait a minute. How can they work THERE, if they are in THIS picture too? And THIS ONE!"

I quickly change the subject. I didn't quite have the energy at the moment to explain to him just exactly what "mommy night" means

See, it's not necessarily a holiday where every mommy in the world gets a break for making dinner, helping with homework, reading, and and bedtime. It's just a night where I get one.

Hey guys... I found a short but sweet article on El Dia De Los Muertos at MAS Magazine online...

here it is in part...

Increasingly, Hispanic traditions and celebrations are going mainstream. Such is the case for Dia de los Muertos, as more non-Hispanics are visiting the graves and honoring the memory of passed loved ones with altars decorated with skulls and most importantly, delicious plates of food.

It basically gives you a little bit of history and gives you a link for traditional recipes to celebrate the day.

I had a blast at last years celebration. I hope I get a chance to go this year.

If you're gonna send out religious myspace bulletins that are going to damn me to hell if I don't choose to re post it you should be:

1. a virgin, or at least celibate. If married they should be monogamous.

Hey all! I'll be in Bakersfield October 20th to take my teenagers to  a  Dirty Spanglish show at 8:00 at Studio 99.

I myself will be headed to the Empty Space Theatre to the ALL WOMAN GROUP ART SHOW called Burn the Witch.

Is anybody interested in going to it with me?

Ok now that you've gotten as excited as me about the show, YOU WANNA GO?

Do you dare participate in the second Twinkielicious Bakotopian field trip? You all know how much fun the first one was! We had a great turnout and I'm hoping for an even better one this time.

Let me know soon. Thanks!
