I blame it on my brothers!!

So I am single and I have no kids...and I really have not a clue how to write a blog without the cute little kid stories, but its like 3 in the morning ...
(does that really sound like I am trying to write some sad and corny country music song?)
...and I have just been looking at my Brother's Blog Pages ( I go on their pages every once in awhile because they never send me pictures of their kids )

Any way I was looking and thinking to myself I can do that!!

So I set up a page came up with a clever name...(this is harder than you think, those old women who think its cute to give themselves grandma names!! Darn them for stealing my name!!)

I'm getting myself all ready to write out something clever and funny and it dawns on me, I am not really funny or clever, What in the crap was I thinking...(please refer back to the top of the page and the fact that it was 3 am when I started my first attempt at this blogging thing!!)

I am blaming my brothers, with their funny stories, their cute kids and the pictures that they don't ever send me!! All those clever witty blogs!! Do you hear me I blame you for giving me this crazy craving to write out my sad and pathetic life in a way that someone would actually sit down and choose me over their emails and facebook and solitaire!!

What will I write about that will be both entertaining and make you want to come back for more?

I guess In my first post I am going to have to do what any respectable 1st time blogger would do who is neither funny or clever!! I'm gonna have to steal material from a professional and so with out further adieu....I am gonna tell you about my name and have you play a game.... (I would like to take time out and give a personal thank you to the blog who I stole the name game from, a remarkably genius blogger seriously thank you Gwen Stoker you both amaze and inspire me to be a better blogger even if you have no clue who I am...)

MeeMoe comes from the Popular Latin Word "Medicatus"

Which in translation means to charm or enchant,

Actually I have been Meemoe for forever now to my Brothers, I think Zach had a hard time with my name and so was born MeeMoe!!!

let the record show that I Grahm Leland Coder was the first adoring brother to leave a rebuttal to the "I blame my brother" blog entry. I realize that cam is dead and can't leave an entry, and Zach is busier than three men put together, and i'm unemployed and somewhat of a housewife right now, but still, i'm the one who is leaving a message, which is this....

I'm a fan of the blog, keep it coming. I do resent that fact that the rainbow brite song is stuck in my head now, but all kind of wonderful thoughts and memories were brought up thanks to meemoe. And if you ever think that Zach steals the show or that Ash and I are the karaoke champions, let me point out this little nugget to boost you.

The coders are a family that will not call you by your name, we always have a nick name for everybody, and mandi has the most nicknames of all of us, which is to say that everyone has a funny memory/special place in their heart for mandi, or meemoe, or mbobo, meemonitly, meemonator, number 1 (although you didn't earn this one, you were just lucky enough to be born first), mandi rae, rae rae (only when in south central L.A. is this one used), there are a million more i'm forgetting. Also here are a few that i feel are forthcoming:

1. Maraco (first two letters of each of your names)
2. Maraco Bama (it's just funny to add bama and also points out the evolution that a good nickname must go through)
3. Auntie M (when i tell goldy this one, she'll freak! She loves mandi, and wizard of Oz...not to mention that Goldy won't let me put the light cover fixtures that mandi made in her room, cause she likes to move them around the house so as not to "hold them to one spot"...the sign of true good art)
4. "Get the heck out of my house"...this one will be used by the kiddies cause they'll think that that is mandi's name after grandpa gene says it every time they talk to eachother
5. "no you can't have that juice"..see the reason above
6. juice....it will become annoying to explain the mandi/grahm juice story so we'll just start calling meemoe "juice"
7. The dish rag killer...this won't be a nickname as much as the media's name given to mandi when she is in jail for killing mom after mom left one too many dish rags in the sink
8. "the best auntie ever" this is what i'm training my kids to call mandi so she'll babysit more often or give us more cool creations like the light switches...(btw meemo, goldy is terrified of the doby painting in her room, so we have to think of something else to cover it with)
9. Gramme Mammi...this one is after mandi's kids have kids and nobody knows how to differentiate Gramme, Gramme Val and Mandi
10. McMandi...okay this last one is actually not forthcoming but, one that we should have used when mandi worked there in high school, and it's not fair that we missed our chance....

Love you Mandi
