wild rumpus: an unruly party or a noisy disturbance/commotion
so grant it the other morning I was indeed functioning on an ample amount of cold medication, but not enough to dampen the screams and giggles of small children throbbing from my niece's room at 7 am. I glanced into the hallway only to see my brother-in-law Shawn adamantly walk by and demand an explanation, "What's going on here? This is ri-diculous. Shela can't even find her pants!!!" That had to be one off the hook slumber party. Truly a wild rumpus.
in order to recoup from the side ache I got while laughing about the above incident, I shuffled out to the living room, slumped down in the big chair, and turned on the tv. I watched (but really slept through) all of the Today Show and then woke up in time for Live with Regis and Kelly. Normally not my typical tv viewing choice, but today's show featured an interview with Bruce Willis, and well I like Bruce Willis, so gosh darn it I decided to watch Live with Regis and Kelly. However, just as the interview was about to start, and my excitement was at it's highest, tragedy struck! The local news interrupted my live and tantalizing interview with the one and only Bruce Willis (did I mention it was live?) to bring me, the viewer, "breaking news!" And what exactly was this "breaking news" that's sooooo important that they had to make me miss the interview with Bruce? a fire? dead babies? the end of the world maybe?...oh no! just the opposite my friend. They interrupted a perfectly pertinent interview with Bruce Willis to tell me that little old Boise State University Football Team had decided to change leagues...and the change won't even take place until 2011. Eff that sh*t. So much for "breaking news." AND so much for a beautiful morning with Bruce Willis. Oh well, I guess that's Idaho for you.
