Great Minds Think Alike Warped


Yes, this is the kind of thing Clay thinks up on a regular basis. I'm glad I took a picture of this because....



I KNEW it reminded of something! John Cusak in Better Off Dead (a movie Clay has never seen)

Edited to add - go visit Mimi's Relay for Life page!

  9. Love it, love it, love it! We had to hide our Q-tips because of the places my kids were trying to stick them. I don't know what the fascination is with them, but I'm glad to know we're not alone!

  10. Better Off Dead is one of the funniest movies I've ever seen!!! I'm not surprised you mentioned it in your blog! ;o)

    "Gee, Ricky. I'm sorry your Mom blew up."

  11. Having a crazy husband, I am afraid this is the kind of thing I have to look forward to when my son gets just a little bit older and can reach the Q-tips! Your little man is still awfully cute even with his facial enhancements!

    ReplyDelete
  12. Oh my word, that's so funny and scary all at once. He got it EXACTLY RIGHT too!

    ReplyDelete

  16. I WANT MY TWO DOLLARS!!!

    It has raisins in it, you like raisins.

    OMG - I quote that movie DAILY!! John is the love of my life :0) beside my husband of course.

    ReplyDelete
  17. OMG! As soon as I saw it, I immediately thought of John Cusack! LOL
    Thanks for the giggles! :)

  18. I LOVE that movie. We just introduced our 11 year old to it recently and she liked it, too. She didn't get some of the jokes, though.

    "Go that way, really fast, and if something gets in your way, turn!"

  19. Hee - even the same eyebrow is raised :)

  22. What a fabulous way to start my day!

    Clay Rocks! And so does John Cusak AND that awesome movie!

    Thanks, have a great weekend - you're becoming quite the jetsetter

    (Note to Dawn.....you may get my comment twice, as my PC was acting up when I tried to send. Just decline one of them)

  23. Aww - sticking q-tips out of every facial orifice: it never gets old...:-)

    ReplyDelete
  24. OK!!!

    WHY WASN'T THAT THE COVER FOR YOUR BOOK!?!?!??!

    YOU GOT ROBBED!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    ReplyDelete
  25. Oh, and PS, do you know how many hate letters you're going to get telling you how bad a mom you are for letting your kid stick shit into his orifices and then you laughing about it and saying, "Oh wait, Clay, let mommy take a picture of you cuz you're just too cute so I can show everyone on the blog!"

    So, I'm just saving all those haters the time...

    DON'T BOTHER SENDING DAWN HATE MAIL BECAUSE OF THIS PHOTO!!!!

    DUH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    This has been a Public Service Announcement brought to you by Manic Mommy, Dawn's newly personal appointed keep-it-real, give-it-a-rest PR gal.

    So there! : )

  26. Hehe!! Maybe Clay has a future in comedy/acting....??

    ReplyDelete
  27. Hey, at least if he has a q-tip shoved in every hole you don't have to worry about what else he is sticking in them for that moment.

    ReplyDelete
  28. Hahaha!! As soon as I saw the picture of Clay it reminded me of Cusak. I LOVE that film. Saw it when I was in labour with my first child. =D =D

    "He put his hairy te(n)tacles all over me"

    Hahaha....and they all get frozen dinners for Christmas....and the Mother's green goo creeps off the plate. Ahahahaha. Ok. Must introduce my children to the delights of that film.

    ReplyDelete
  29. This is so bloody brilliant! Raising boys is always an adventure.

    ReplyDelete
  30. haha! That kid is awesome. I haven't seen that movie in Eons!

    That's better than my daughter at least. She steals all of my q-tips and then eats them.(along with lotion, batteries and dog food. I blame her father.)

  31. Ok... this is along the lines of the Warped sense of humor. I was sleeping this morning (I had a migraine which may be contributing factor to the dream I had) and dreamed that you were in a predicament about having to change your email, etc. because it was no longer mom2my6pack... as you were pregnant with your 7th! Well, I tried to email you that little funny tidbit but it came back as unsendable...can you imagine my first thought??

    I hope you got a chuckle out of this... and wanted to give you a laugh as you have given me so very many times. Tank you for them all!!

  32. oh PS....
    I love the pic of CLay... that's one that will be great to chow at his graduation open house and wedding!!!

    ReplyDelete
  33. That may not be my favorite Cusack picture.

    ReplyDelete
  34. So, does he also like to eat "Franch" bread and "Franch" fries and "Franch" dressing???

    Just wondering.

    p.s. "I WANT MY TWO DOLLARS!!!!"

  35. I think Clay is one of those that people say, "He won't be just famous. He'll be infamous."

    ReplyDelete
  36. This has nothing to do with your blog today. Just wanted to make sure you faired okay in the earthquake.

    ReplyDelete
  37. OMGosh, I LOVE that!! That is totally something Eli would do. I fondly call him my maniac monkey-boy :) I think he & Clay are kindred spirits...good thing they don't know each other, who knows what could happen!
    Manic...YOO FUNNY LADY!!
    To all the haters, get a life, dang!

    ReplyDelete
  38. OMG - that is too funny! And so is that movie! Thanks for the laugh!

    ReplyDelete
  39. Are you SURE Clay hasn't seen that movie?????

    ReplyDelete
  40. At least Clay has good taste in movies even before he sees them!

    ReplyDelete
  41. TOO FUNNY. Kids-a never ending source of comic relief. He is going to be a great comedian some day.

    ReplyDelete
  42. OMG they almost have the same facial expression and everything!!! Waaaaay too funny!!!! Clay is just a cutie pie!!

    ReplyDelete
  43. I know you don't get a lot of time to read other blogs...but your post cracked me up. I have almost the same picture of my son on my blog for a few months ago!

    Boys will be boys, that's for sure. Thans for the laugh!

  44. P.S. Guidepost should have put THAT photo on the cover of your book instead.

    ReplyDelete
  45. Hi Dawn, I don't think I ever saw the movie. I am going to rent it today since everyone loves it. My 11 year old son will too I feel. I was wondering if Clay saw the movie before doing this? Kristine in Michigan.

  46. At least they keep us entertained, right!

    Love your blog

    ReplyDelete
  47. It must be a Chicago thing. Your boy is more like John Hughes.

    ReplyDelete
  48. Oh Dawn - this has nothing to do with your post, although I definately see what you mean.. I just tumbled across this youtube link and I couldn't help thinking of you.. You've probably seen it before, but here goes.. Momsence: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=p5g3aWmJPE8

    Be sure to watch the dadsence too.. ;)

  49. hehehe the kid looks nice in warped state.

    we say in Hindi here "poor ke paon paalne me hee dikh jatte hain"
    which sorta implies that, the man starts showing his future feeta and abilities right from the stroller.
