It’s not just a killer ditty by Ozzy Osbourne; it’s what I’ve done.

For my Mama, I came home.

Yes dear hannihaus readers, just days after arriving in Houston, this dirty hippy hit the bricks, headed (further) west and then north to Alaska.

I guess the fact that I recently pissed myself at a truck stop wasn’t a deterrent to traveling. It was just a deterrent to dry pants … and ever being cool.

But anywayz, fresh out of Texas-requisite hairspray and jalapenos, I’m enjoying being laid-back-chillin’ in the freezing 49th.

It’s nice to visit a place where the seasons aren’t Hot and Hotter.

And it’s lovely to spend time with people who really get me, who really know where I’m coming from

… and who’ve also peed their pants a time or two.

Here’s to reminders that baby nieces are the best,

xoxoH

    hey hannichan – are you still in Wasilla? I’d like to give you a call if you are. Melissa

  2. Hänni says:

    akleemer–hey girly, yeah i’ll be in town until probably Friday. I guess you’ve got the number :)

  3. marnie says:

    Holy crap, you are almost in the neighbourhood.

    Sweet.

  4. Hänni says:

    marnie–lol! You Canadians are soooo witty!

  5. kerrianne says:

    Feel free to stop in Washington on your way back to, um, Texas? Yeah, it’s not really “on” the way, so much as “not really.” But, “perpetual invitation” was my point. ; )
    Have fun with your moms. : )

  6. Jon says:

    Awww. Three cuties all in one picture. :)

  7. other peoples kids are great arent they?

  8. Paddymick says:

    Breathe deep and realize that THIS (Alaska) is where it’s AT!

    Have a great time with the family!

  9. World traveller or what? Enjoy your trip! Cutie nieces!

  10. meno says:

    i hope it’s a good reason that you went home to mama.
    Those are some huggable nieces.

  11. Erin Mc says:

    I’ve peed my pants before and I’m still cool— so therefore you are too. Duh!

    Have a wonderful time in the 49th! Family time is great, isn’t it?

  12. Hänni says:

    Kerrianne–I’ll likely be going through Sea-Tac. Do you live in the area? And I *will* be accepting your perpetual invitation sometime in the next year, esp. if you’re moving to Portland :)

    Jon–You are too kind sir :)

    DaReaVeRoFBiTS–Aww yes, esp. when they are screeching about some seemingly inconsequential matter–like the fact they want pancakes at two in the afternoon–and you get to leave them with their mom!

    Paddymick–Amen. There’s no substitute for fresh air, good water and good company. You can’t beat Alaska.

    Mrs. Wooden Nickels–lol. Yeah I seem to have a hard time staying put these days :) I’m actually hoping to do a quickie trip to Mexico in the next few weeks. Not for any touristy stuff mind you–mostly for tequila and cheap whores.

    meno–It’s absolutely a great reason I went home to mama–I had some free time and I wanted to go home. Yes the nieces hug great, but I don’t squeeze ‘em too hard after mealtimes. They seem to have their mother’s disposition as far as gastro intestinal matters are concerned.

    Erin MC–If Happy Gilmore taught us anything its that peeing your pants is cool, oh and also that O’Doyles rule! God bless you Adam Sandler.

  13. kerrianne says:

    Ooh, let me know (via email is probably easiest) when you are coming through SEA-Tac. It’s not “next door,” but it’s not “Texas” either. ; ) Depending on the day, I can probably make that work. Woohoo! You know, maybe!

  14. Amber says:

    if you feel the NEED to have some fabulous hummus at middle way you will feel obligated to let me know. I live waaaayyyy too close (no I’m not working the corner of Spenard and 33rd) to avoid me!

    Enjoy the rain! Hugs!

  15. Glad you’re getting some good time with the Hänni-momma!!!

    ps….if you keep no other knowledge of me, please take heart that on more than one occasion in my adult (and sober) life… I have indeed gotten pee on myself.

    have a great visit! miss you!

  16. tea says:

    Have fun and we`ve all done the pee pants thing I think!

    tea
    xo

    You are all disgusting whitetrash. I have NEVER peed my pants as an adult. I have, however, thrown up on them and woken up asleep…on the toilet…with my pants around my ankles. So I guess that makes me disgusting white trash, too. Yea! We should have a party.

    Hanni, I’m soo happy you went to Alaska. That way you don’t know that I haven’t yet sent the card I promised, because I am a horrid procrastinator. Ooops. Did I say that out loud?

  18. marybishop says:

    Your nieces are so so cute!

    I never know what I’m going to find when I visit here. You have moved and then vacationed since I last stopped by. Hope all is well and remember no matter where you are it’s Hanni’s house!
