I can pick out the most expensive one . About 70% of the time I will like the expensive one better without knowing the price. I don't buy the expensive one 70% of the time though, maybe 50% .

I have the uncanny ability to operating the little springs that hold the round cycindrical object holding paper in certain rooms, remove it when empty, and place a new fully loaded roll in it's place. It must be special because I'm the only one in my family who can do it. Be patient. It may be part of a recessive gene that skips a generation or manifests itself later. I know this because my DH and older son are missing this super power. But one day I got a surprise when I realized someone had performed this miracle in the main bathroom - and I knew it wasn't me! Elated, I exited the bathroom asking DH and (then 8 year old) older son, who were both puzzled that this act required human intervention and both professed to know nothing about it. I started to think they were just toying with me, when my 3 year old son dropped his Lego and piped up, "It was me, mommy!" Cool, huh? So maybe if you have another child that one will be the lucky recipient of this rare and recessive gene...

My current super power is letting all the people I share a house with live. I can't say how much longer that power is going to last though. This letting everyone live thing is getting old. Youngest DS got sent home from school today for fighting. Anyone have any bail money handy? I may need it.

Sorry CL!
I wish I could communicate with the good for nothing admin assistant. Other people have been standing around when I asked questions and they answered it. I can't decide if he just doesn't get it because he's not that smart or if he's lying to me.

One more super power- when it comes to houses, C and I are "every man".
Seriously, if we go look at model homes, the one we like best will be the most popular home in the development. One place we went to on their grand opening and saw all the models. One house (not the most expensive and not the cheapest, with other models quite comparable in price) had a floor plan that we immediately knew was our favorite. Within three months, that model was closed and they weren't willing to build any more of that floor plan in the current phase of development.

This letting everyone live thing is getting old. Youngest DS got sent home from school today for fighting. Anyone have any bail money handy? I may need it. Tell him I said it was nice hearing about him. Sorry that will have to end now. He has ADHD and Oppositional Defiant Disorder. He's crazy sensitive and a real drama queen. He, despite many attempts to teach him, has no clue how to react calmly first. He cries every time he's in trouble or thinks he might be, even at school. Just has me at my wits end currently. Today the school calls to tell me he is being sent home for fighting. DS hit a kid in the eye with a rubber bracelet he was wearing and then kicked him. Kid punched him in the eye. DS tells my mom the kid was poking him. I have serious doubts that he tried to get away, or get intervention or did anything but take it until he blew up.( DS also has a habit of telling whatever sounds best instead of the truth so I'll probably never know if he did or not if there isn't an adult witness.) I'm just tired of all the crap lately. He's had a massive attitude and I'm ready to make him sleep on the porch. Hence the possible need for bail money

I have several super powers. I have the power of drinking too much Diet Pepsi, I have the power of Knowing A Lot of Trivia, and I have the power of making up songs with rhyming verses on the fly. I also have the power of moving time and space, but I keep that one a secret . I have the power to drink a whole fifth of Bacardi and still believe that Stan Lee has found a Superhuman!
