Welcome to another collection of the strange things that float through my mind or capture my imagination otherwise known as Friday Fragments.Last week, I bemoaned the loss of good late night TV to the world of infomercials. I have noted, as of late, how they all seem targeted at women and frankly women around my age. There are 3-4 "age-defying" skin product lines among the Nick at Nite competitors. So, I started thinking, "What is age-defying? Is the cream sassy? Does it give 'age' back talk or stay out all night after curfew?"Yep... these are the things that run through my mind at 3:00 a.m. when left to my own defenses and bad television programming.

In two days, this blog will be five years old. My Universe could attend kindergarten and ride the bus. I guess it's my 3rd baby. Though it may never grow up, it does bring me joy and frustrates me much like a child. I probably should do something to celebrate but like many parties in my life, I have waited until to the last minute. Alas...

My daughter had another funny moment the other day. She proclaimed that she was a princess but a "Bad-ass princess". She then realized that she had said "ass" to me. "Sorry, Mommy." I told her in this case, just between the two of us, it was okay. I think being a badass princess is pretty cool. Scratch that, very cool.In fact, I want to be a badass princess!

And to end, these words from Sonny-Bunny, "I'm dying of laughter-ness!"That's my frags for this week. Has anything badass happened to you this week? Did anything make you die of laughter-ness? I hope so. Here's to a week of laughing badass-ery!
