So my friend "Mercedes" likes to make appearances on my blog every once in a while. She's a real classy gal. She often likes to attend meetings a bit sauced and make a fool of herself when she does her presentation. Then, she steals the rest of the wine from the meeting so she can drink it on the way home. That's how they roll in the big MV (notice all the purses she snatched?).
When Mercedes wakes up the next morning with a massive hangover, she does what she does every morning: have a few beers, then drives over to her friends house, drives back to her house because she forgot her kids, then drives around for a while because she forgot where she was supposed to be in the first place.
Mercedes decides to nap for the rest of the day and lets her dog babysit. After all, he is the most responsible one in the household. When she wakes up she realizes that she hasn't showered this week so she rubs her armpits with a sheet of Bounce.
Once the can of chili has been sufficiently microwaved for dinner, Mercedes opens another six-pack to share with the kids and dog.
We love our friends, they're the most perfect and beautiful bunch ever. Mercedes is no exception.

I LOVE MERCEDES!!
You hereby have permission to feature me on your blog.
Granted, the photos are a few years old, but:
1) I pretty much look the same
and
2) The pictures you sent to me from my visit were pretty funny.
Make something up about them and I will support you. :)
we actually had a distant "Mercedes" (pronounced Mer-sih-deeeees) and she was nowhere as fun.
I'm glad you all have fun friends! We should try to do something while we are back in Oklahoma.. meet halfway and go somewhere.. that would be fun!!
what in the world - there are no letters for my word verification??
Yes yes, that mercedes is quite a gal. Classy is not the right word, She is MUCH more sophisticated than your average lush. I mean, at least she stole the coach bags and not the knock offs in the room. And she doesn't go for the measely small bottles of wine, she always grabs the Bullets. :)
Hehe! Oh my. Can I use this to teach my students about "voice"? - I love it! Oh, wait, I'm supposed to use age appropriate texts. Sigh...
