Do you know how it feels to beg, plead, bribe, flatter someone so they'll let you take over their blog...for a moment?
That would be me. (Ahem, my name is The Rambler over at My Rambling Thoughts.)
Someone I have been reading for a long bloggy time has requested anyone out there to volunteer to man her blog as she moves her life from San Diego to Texas.
I was like....Uh, uh, pick me, pick me...uh uh (waving hand wildly, but fearing the teacher won't pick me), right here, hello, here (make eye contact dang it)..
Yeah. That was me.
Janah had no choice but to look at me. (evil laughter.. I have won)
So here I am.
What now?
Oh, right....what am I going to write.
Of course me and Janah chatted via email my topic which was a previous old conversation that sealed my undying love and loyalty to her and agreed that we were the most genius people ever born.
Are you ready for it?
We invented something and we can't believe it doesn't exist.
Ready?
A universal remote for all toys that make noise that will shut it off all at once.
I know. I know. Say it.
We.Are. Genius.
Tell me. Have you parents not been in your kids room/living room/your bedroom and it feels like every toy won't shut up. Your tired. You just want your pretty little overworked body to hit the pillow and drool away to lala land. One where servants wait hand and foot on us...(is that only my dreamland?)
But no...it's not how our little universe works. It starts with one toy...reciting the ABC's which alerts some Disney toy that starts barking it's most popular line which somehow makes the doggie walking toy start barking.
Now your half asleep trying to grab blindly for each toy that won't allow you the go card to Sleepland.
BUT if you had the invention of The Rambler and So Not Mom-a-licious...you can grab the remote on your side table and click ONE button....and sleepland never looked so close.
Sigh. I know...how DO we do it.
No, no...YOU'RE. WELCOME.
And THAT people is how we became the most genius people of the parenting world.
*************
Do come by and visit. We can chat. I can rub off some of my genius upon you...It'll be fun.
P.S....any wealthy benefactor willing to finance us to get started would be so appreciated.

Thanks a bunch Janah!! Always always a pleasure to be in your presence! :)
Oh no! My kids are too old for toys. I don't want them to have one of these whenever they have their own children someday. They need to hear all that noise just like I had to!
I am LOVING that idea - WHY has nobody thought of it before. Total genius!! You'd get a Nobel for that one for sure!!
In lieu of that, might I suggest getting even? When a grandparent buys your child a noisy toy, send noisy toy with child on the next overnight visit to grandparent. If a single, unmarried, childless friend/acquaintance/coworker/family member gives your kid a noisy toy, write it down. And wait. Then, when that clueless schmuck has a child, pow! Paybacks are hell, my friends. And so worth it. Trust me on this. If other parents, who should know better, give your kid a noisy toy, send noisy toy with your child to their house for the playdate. Or reciprocate in kind when their kid has a birthday. Again. Paybacks are hell. And so worth it. Mwahahahahaha!
This reminds me of the movie Click. I need a clicker for theen boy...
Daycare Mommy sent all her boys' noisy toys to my house, "to help get me started" because I wasn't looking/wasn't ready for this underpaid gig.
I threw them away.
Does that make me genius? or does that make me evil?
Let's call me an Evil Genius and no one gets hurt.
You're so awesome!
Will you take a check? I'd like to order two right now!!
Ha, Ha, I love that Idea!! Brillant!
BRILLIANT!
Where do I buy one?! I'll pay any amount. Did you know that Sit N Spins do NOT HAVE AN OFF BUTTON???
