I’m so over being a parent this evening.
sometimes it’s shit.
ive put them in front of the Lion King and even the best movie ever isn’t enough to stop them winding each other up!

Ive cracked open the gin, turned up the 90’s anthems (as demonstrated in the title!) and and wondering about looting my husbands weed stash before he comes home later!!

anyone want to be bad mums tonight??

Hey ohh, listen what I say ohh!

I've hit the sav' blanc, sent them out for Maccas, and watched TOTP. Now onto Below Decks.

@mbosnz Now that’s the content I’m looking for!!

RollerPolarBear · 05/08/2022 20:03

Are you paranoid?

IceStationZebra · 05/08/2022 20:04

I would love to be 15 again with no responsibilities tonight. I listened to that album constantly between 15-18!

PinkFing · 05/08/2022 20:04

Nope, just complicated.

PinkFing · 05/08/2022 20:06

@IceStationZebra me too. I was zooming in our spare room/cesspit and ended up looking through 90’s dodgy photos of parties and just felt so ducking ancient

I was a child of the eighties, clubbing in the nineties. It was a good time! Also, AC/DC, Sisters of Mercy, Heart, . . .

PinkFing · 05/08/2022 20:08

I was an early 80’s baby. The pet shop boys just makes me think of the nursery run!

As a child of the sixties here you will be "young" again one day when your babies leave home x

PinkFing · 05/08/2022 20:10

I just feel like I should be appreciating it but I just want to cut loose. I actually look forward to the days I’m working (not on zoom!) as I can drive child free and crank up Faithless to the max on route!

Sorry @FuckYourMexicanPomBeaker but you have the lyrics wrong:
”Do you have the time to listen to me whine
About nothing and everything all at once?”
I listened to a LOT of Greenday as a teen 😁

littlepeas · 05/08/2022 20:13

Isn’t it:

about nothing and everything all at once?

🙈

Don't say that! I was bawling my eyes out today, my eldest went back to her boyfriend after spending a precious night with us, and soon she'll be going to university. I'm old! Old's, I tells ya! (Okay, hormones and a very bad day could be involved).

PinkFing · 05/08/2022 20:14

consider me educated! The days before googling lyrics heh!

willybumpoo · 05/08/2022 20:15

Grasping to control.... so I better hold onnnnnnn 🎶

littlepeas · 05/08/2022 20:15

Cross post fur I thought I had it wrong for a second!

littlepeas · 05/08/2022 20:17

Also - don’t worry - I have a friend who thought ‘I predict a riot’ was ‘I’ve got Tourette’s’ for a very long time!

PinkFing · 05/08/2022 20:18

Now on Glycerine (Bush). One of my absolute favourites. The voice! The angst!

Glad you said this because I thought I'd even getting the words wrong forever!

PinkFing · 05/08/2022 20:19

The boys are now appreciating Harry Potter film so they’re sorted 🍸

PinkFing · 05/08/2022 20:20

My worst misheard song lyric was the Police
‘and my poo hole aches’!!!

Phrenologistsfinger · 05/08/2022 20:21

How’s your self esteem?

PinkFing · 05/08/2022 20:22

@Phrenologistsfinger it’s okay cas ive got no self esteem 😀

SouperNoodle · 05/08/2022 20:22

I'm cuddling my 3yo to sleep and as soon as she's down for the night (lol as if! She'll be in my bed in like 3 hours) I'm cracking open the Prosecco and stuffing my face with the kids' stash of freddos 😂😂
