Just as I was thinking about what fun Friday post I could do for tomorrow, I came to a disappointing revelation: tomorrow is only Thursday, which means it's Wednesday night, which means nothing without Modern Family. As I was pondering my fun Friday post and coming to this revelation, I was also typing in the jumbled crazy secrity letters in a "comment" box and the letters happened to spell FUNALOST. What a little coincidence because this was right about the time all my FUNALOST happened after realizing that it's not the start of the weekend quite yet. So, here's my definition for funalost.
FUNALOST: the moment when one realizes that the fun or potential for fun is over
Examples:
When you sneak into the kitchen in the morning to enjoy that one cup of coffee, alone in the quiet of the morning and you hear little feet walking down the hallway the second the mug hits your mouth (FUNALOST)
You are all set to go to dinner - so what if you are only running a few minutes behind, it's only a ten minute drive- you get in the car, crank the tunes, and then realize that you have 2 miles to empty (FUNALOST)
It's the morning of a big birthday party, everything is in place, and then the little birthday girl proclaims, "I think I am going to throw up, Mommy." (FUNALOST)
Throwing up, in general (FUNALOST)
Kids are all dressed up for photos, you are walking to the car and your two year old slips a little and falls. No problem, you think, her tights are just a little wet, they will dry after all. Then you put her in her carseat only to discover that the "little wet" was actually dog poop. (FUNALOST)
and speaking of....
You recently had a baby, baby is in the sling, and you are trying to be perfect, fun mom by taking your older child out for an adventure walk. Older child, who is only 2, is holding your hand until you are forced to let go and adjust baby in the sling. In that moment you turn around to your 2yr old inquiring, "Mommy, what's these?" proudly holding a piece of dog poop in each hand (FUNALOST).
ok, we live in the city and some people don't pick up after their dogs.
Do you have any examples of FUNALOST. Perhaps, it was reading THIS POST TODAY??
