Pinterest? What's that? You accept this mysterious invitation. You log into this "Pinterest." Pin it? Pin what? I don't get it?! Oh, I add this to my toolbar. Okay, now what? Hmm, I still don't get it. This is stupid. This is almost as stupid as twitter.
You forget about it for a while. You log onto facebook, "Pinterest is so addictive!!! Agh!" "I was up until 4am!! No thanks to Pinterest!" "I made these awesome brownies from a recipe I found on Pinterest. Soooo good!" "My husband thinks I was up with the kids all night *wink wink!" You log into your email "Ashley is now following your pins" "Sara is now following your pins" "Jessica is now following your pins." You feel so confused. You didn't pin anything.
Well, maybe I am just missing something with this Pinterest thing. You log back into Pinterest. What happens when I click this. Whoa! What's all this? I LIKE that. repin Oh, I could totally do that! repin I wonder if my husband would build this... repin I LOVE that outfit! repin That sounds so good right now! repin That is just gorgeous repin .... 1 hour later I totally want that done to my hair. repin Oh my gosh!

"Mommy, will you tie this on my doll?"
"Can't you see Mommy's busy?"
"Busy with what?"
"It's called pinning. It's very important." You tie the cape onto the doll. "Now, go play. Mommy loves you!"
Whoa, she got that clean with that? repin What a cute party favor idea! repin I totally have those ingredients right now. repin Oh, that totally makes me want a sewing machine. repin ... 3 hours later...
"Mommy! The baby stinks!"
"Are you sure? I don't smell him." Child drags baby over. He stinks. You change baby.
"Mommy, I'm hungry! When's lunch?"
"It's not for a while. Now go play."
"My tummy is STARVING!"
You look at the clock. It's 1:45pm. Whoa! That late already? "You're right, let's feed you guys."
You are eating lunch while pinning. Curtain rods and fabric for a book holder? Genius! repin... Phone rings. It's the spousal unit.
"Hey honey! How's your day going?"
Homemade Butterfinger? Awesome! repin "Oh... wha?...My day? Oh it's great." Old toolbox makes what? repin

"Honey? Are you there?"
Vinegar and dish soap? repin "Uhhhhh, yeeah. I'm here. What's up?"
"Nothing really. Is this a bad time?"
"How are you with a table saw?"
"Table saw? I don't know, I haven't used one in a while. Why?"
"But you have used one, right?"
"Uh, yeah. Why are you asking me this?"
"Oh, just some projects I need you to do this weekend." He is talking so much right now! Doesn't he understand? "Well honey. I'm right in the middle of something REALLY important right now, so...I'll see you when you get home. Love you! Bye." click

"Hey honey! How was your day?" The spousal unit is home. You quickly close your laptop.
"A little crazy." You try to smooth your hair down. You suddenly realize you didn't get dressed today. You husband looks around the house, which is a DISASTER.
"I see that. When did he get changed last?"
"I don't know, like an hour ago?"
"Are you sure? He is totally leaking."
"Well, he drank a TON of juice."
"What's for dinner?" Oh crap! Dinner. I didn't even think about that.
"Well, actually since today was SO crazy, I just thought I would do ramen or something like that. I just didn't even have a chance to think about it. So crazy today, yeah."
"Yeah you said that." Oh no! I think he's onto me!
"You know, kids, crazy crazy kids." You start boiling water. You throw in the ramen. You sit at the table and discreetly open the laptop. Coast is clear. Aw! He changed the baby. He's cleaning the living room?
You refresh your page. Oh my gosh. I've missed a lot of pins. S'mores bars? Mmm. repin Cute shoes. repin
"I'm sorry you had such a crazy day. I guess I didn't realize the kids were so difficult today."
Yet another cute outfit! repin You never know if I'll need that. repin That's a good idea for the kids to do. repin
"Honey? What's Pinterest?"
