Pop!
I just sat here listening to my two older kids pop a giant sheet of bubble wrap. It takes a certain mood to appreciate the snappiness of bubble wrap. I'm not in THAT mood, and about three minutes into it, I began to micro-flinch with every pop. I couldn't bring myself to stop them, and I couldn't bring myself to stand up and move somewhere else.
They finally popped themselves out, and adjourned. I can hear them giggling and you can bet they are planning the next round of noise bombardment. I'm supposed to be working on a promotional flyer for my mom's business - and I've got nothing. My creative juices are not flowing today.
You know what? I take it all back. I just clicked on my own link above and "popped" a few sheets and it was oddly satisfying. Must. Have. More. Hee!

See? Maybe you were just feeling left out that they were popping and you were not! :)

Okay, I thought you might be nuts about the "click and pop" but you know what? It was just the thing. I'm in the basement hiding from the Terrors and their father, waiting for the Happy Drugs to kick in. Turns out I don't need Happy Pills, I need bubble wrap! Thanks!

Jenny, I used your bubble wrap link for today's post. I WANTED TO SHARE IT WITH MY WORLD! And yes ma'am, I was shouting because I love the bubble wrap pop page.
Always in awe of your mothering and writing,
Grace
