ORIGINAL: sirsholly so...this morning at 7am the LO announces that he lost his favorite little Fireman action figure. The damn thing is about three inches long and is lost at least once a week. I asked him where he thought it might be and he said, lower lip trembling and eyes filling with tears. he may have thrown it away. Great. I just carried out the trash. So...shoes, gloves and a coat are put on and mom hauls her ass out into the 10 degree temp to look for this silly thing. So...there is good ol mom, tearing apart a trash bag, and marveling at the interesting design used coffee grounds make when splattered on white tennis shoes. I went through every ounce of trash with no luck. So i head back into the house taking off my coffee grounded shoes (run hot water on 'em and i'll have a steamy cuppa ready in no time) and walking barefoot in the snow to get to the back door, which he had slammed and locked because he was cold . So...good ol mom walks barefoot (in the snow) to the front door. By this time i am a little annoyed. I inform the little chit that his stupid fireman was not in the trash. OOOO...again with the lower lip! Damnit...i wish he'd knock that shit off!!! Anyway, he says that perhaps it is under the sofa. Goody...i get a flashlight, stop to fight with him when he grabs it and bellows "MINE!" and proceed to get down on all fours to look for this fucking toy. So...the LoudOne sees mom on all fours and decided this is a good time to play Cowboy. I was nominated to be the horse. No warning...just a HI-O-Silver and a well placed pounce. So....my feet have frost bite and my spine is severed in three places, but...good old mom kept looking. I checked every piece of furniture in the entire house (one does not realize just how much furniture one has until you are looking for a mofo toy fireman). With a heavy heart i turned to the LoudOne and sadly informed him i cound not find his toy. I expected tears and that motorized lip to go a mile a minute. But nooooooooo! Just as i told him i couldn't find it, i saw him reach into the pocket of his jeans and pull out his toy. well whoppie Hmmmmmmm...I seem to remember going through this with "My Little Pony"...I got close to damn near hating that fucking pony...
