Anything below the border is an OCD Mexican... Kinda

I have to post this because it's HILARIOUS!!! More power to the "speech impaired"... Right dad!? Plus, we all know my family is obsessed with "Brown" jokes, a.k.a. tHe FrAnCo FaMiLy!!

Premature I know! So BITE ME!!

I had to! I just had to! I'm sure you can tell what my "OCD of the Week" is (Even though it's early this week instead of late). I've been giggling like an infatuated teenage girl all week! Enough said!

Update:

So I'm posting this spoof video for my husband. He thinks this whole Twilight thing is el stupido and I rather laugh it off then get offended. :)

T-T-T-Tater

So OCD of the week is a little late.. My bad! Well, when I told Patrick this was my topic for "OCD of the Week" he questioned whether or not tater tot cravings can be considered an OCD. Well, all I have to say about that is, whateva! My OCD can be on whatever I want it to be, right? It's all about controlling your OCD.... :) kinda. Anywho, I think I've gone through 2 full bags of tater tots in the last week/week and a half. I know I know. Tater tots every other day probably isn't the best thing to be having for dinner, but seriously, Yumm!! I love them like a fat kid loves chocolate! (I've always wanted to say that!) They are so good and so easy! I can even give you the recipe:

1 bag of tater tots

some salt

ketchup

a bit of cheese (every once in a while)
(sometimes mayo for some fry sauce baby)

Preheat oven to 425 degrees (the bag says 450 but I burned them once on that. Too Hot. Don't want to waste perfectly good taters by burning them!) Dump some (maybe a lot) of taters on a cooking sheet and bake for 15-17 minutes. (If your in a cheesey mood, when the tots are nice and done, pull cookie sheet out and immediately sprinkle cheese on your taters for an extra cheesy umph.) Salt 'em up, and dip away!!

Man, now I'm hungry for some tater tots!

Watching my OCD

I haven't posted this week and I have a whole bunch of stuff to post about, but for now... My OCD of the the Week. Football. It's fall and when this time of the year comes around it totally gets me in the football mood. I grew up watching up football and love love love watching. I'm one of those that when football is on, I'm a-watchin! It doesn't matter what teams are playing, I just love watching it. We do, however, have our favorites. Patrick's favorite NFL team is....

Seattle Seahawks

My favorite NFL team is...

Minnesota Vikings

But we both love...

OCD

So, I've had this conversation with my mom before... "I think I might have a slight case of OCD. Seriously." At any given point in my life, I have been slightly OCD about something or another. In high school, it was my school work. Seriously I obsessed over it. I always had everything done and for the most part it was always right. Maybe that's why I was pretty much a loser when I was in high school. Since being married the OCD's tendencies have changed. I know this is probably extremely hard for most of you to believe, but it's true. One of the funniest moments Patrick and I have had is when he noticed one night, while we were still living in our apartment, that, before I went to bed I went around and made sure all the light switches were all down. I'd work it just right so that all the lights were off and all the switches were down. It really bugs. I know what your thinking. Head case. Crazy person. "Coocoo's nest, coocoo's nest!" :) (That one's for you Josie!) I'm getting better. I'm not totally anxious about things that I used to be. Like the radio in the car. When I had my little Honda Civic, the volume on the radio was measured in numbers. I always left the volume at like 20, but Patrick turned it down one time to talk, which was totally fine by me untill he left it at like 9. Uh uh, not cool. I had to turn it down one more notch till it was on 8 (an even number). Phew! I know. I know. Say what you will but I'm working on it. I don't even care any more. Maybe that's because the G6 doesn't have numerical volume control, but what can you do!

I bring this up because every Friday, I'm gonna post about my OCD of the Week. Starting with this one. This week my OCD was actually a certain blog. I found it a week or two ago and read the whole thing from the very first post till now and was sucked in. I seriously would check it for a new post every single chance I got. I'm realizing now that being obsessed over someone elses sad love life is silly. Now, I know some of you read it too and know now that it's totally fictional. When I found that out, I wasn't mad. I was even more anxious that she'd stop writing. She didn't even finish the story. It's like watching a very intense, action-packed movie and the power going out like 10 minutes before the movie ends. You don't ever find out what happens and it tears you up inside! Thankfully, she's gonna keep going and finish. I'm so happy because it's such a heartfelt story. For a person with some anxiety issues, cutting the story off where she did could cause me some problems. Read it and you'll totally understand. Hopefully I can break the habit of checking it like 25 times a day. :)
