    "I told you I was sick!"

    Hardly original, but...

    @ Charlie ~ That's great and all, but it's still an epitaph. I'm looking for a Eulogy.

    I knew you wanted a Eulogy. Epitaphs are much more fun to come up with. That, and I've never written one. Or read one, for that matter.

    WeaselMomma was born a coal-miner's daughter and grew up on a hill in Butcher-Holler. She spent most of her life barefoot, which inevitably led to pregnancy. FIVE of them. She was kicked out of the holler for exceeding the four kid limit and moved to Illinois where she raised her family and made money by showing videos of herself drinking shots. There may also be other videos of which we are not aware.

    I am sorry this eulogy is five years late, but Weaselmomma was found dead sitting at her computer underneath a pile of laundry and dirty dishes. Her family didn't see anything out of the ordinary and had no idea she was there. Weaselmomma, you will be missed. Now everyone, onto the fun part of the funeral! Beer and comfort food!

    I'm gonna have to think about this one. I know it has to include being a busy mom, a lover of hops and barley, a praise to a person who thinks men are hot, someone who loves to do family eating establishment reviews, was easily entertained by late night infomercials and with her hands behind her back can do (one) stupid human trick.

    It's starting to come to me now...

    I think Momo Fali just won. If I could manage to catch up on my reader, I might stand a chance of competing!

    boy, bloggers just don't like to follow the rules huh? they either write epitaphs instead of eulogies or they post the eulogies as comments instead of emailing to you. lol. i won't be doing either cuz i'm too lazy, but i will be happy to leave smartass comments about your followers. glad to help :)

    So what is the epitaph, since you say you have this under control?
