i WANT that

You know the Nickelodeon channel, the Disney channel and other kid channels? Where every other commercial is an advertisement for a toy, usually a crappy "as seen on tv" toy. For example, the carpet skates, the slanket, or the bendaroos, my kids want it all. Every time the commercials come on, I hear,

"mom??? can we have that?"
"we'll see." My favorite answer.

As Spongebob takes another commercial break a new commercial appears. The SPINLASH, the Bubster says,

"mom??? do you WANT that?"
"we'll see."
"no, mom, look, it cuts your lashes...oh...oh and it comes with a mirror."
"what? a mirror?? it cuts my lashes?"
I am forced to stop reading blogs cleaning to look at the TV.

"Dude, it doesn't cut my lashes, it puts mascara on my lashes, spinning to evenly coat each lash...and...wow, it comes with a mirror?" Mildly interested because I love me some whore lashes, it is my one NECESSITY to have thick, black whore lashes (I don't know why I call them whore lashes, maybe it should be like Celeb lashes, ya know the kind, where they flutter and the world drops to my feet granting my every wish?)

"mom. It's $75, but for today, it is only $19.99, do you WANT it?"
"Well," I say giggling, "it is kinda cool, and it does come with a mirror AND, AND, an extra spin lash thingamajig."

"mom, I WANT IT." He says. This is when I break out of my infomercial daze and look over to my Bubba boy, because in the moments of naughtiness or in moments of jokester ways, he has the GREATEST dimple that shines in the middle of his cheek.

Laughing, I say, "dude, you want everything, but neither one of us NEED a SPINLASH."

He giggles and Spongebob returns.

I go back to google SPINLASH cleaning.
