I have 4 things that are bothering me right now, and so I thought I would rant to cyberspace. Here it goes:
1) If you are driving a vehicle....IT IS NOT SAFE TO TEXT MESSAGE!!!!
2) Have you seen the new Special K commercial that says something like this "Right now, you're skipping breakfast to lose weight, blah blah blah" and the girl they are picturing can't weigh more than 100 pounds. No wonder people have eating disorders!
3) Another commercial that really irritates me...the one for Visa debit cards. They show a bunch of people buying stuff and using their debit cards. Then someone pays cash, and everything comes to a standstill. Apparently these advertisers have never used a debit card...you have to enter your PIN, then decide on cash back, then wait to be approved...CASH IS FASTER!
4) Lastly...there are not enough changing tables in public places. When we travel, our car is packed to the brim, so it's hard to do it in the car. Last weekend, we stopped at a Public Rest Stop on the highway, and they didn't even have one!!! I demand that my tax payer dollars should go towards a changing table!! I ended up changing Noelle on a picnic table...so sorry to any family who ate there. :-) We've also been to Jack-n-the-box, 2 starbucks, and countless gas stations that didn't have one.
Anyway, thanks for letting me get all of that off my chest. :-)

You're so right about that Visa commercial!
As for the changing tables, I made a new parent mistake several months ago when Tate and I went to Chick-Fil-A for lunch. I was so surprised to find the bathroom w/out a changing table that I went to the manager to complain only to be told that the changing table was inside one of the stalls . . . oh!
But we should start a website listing all public places that don't completely meet a family's needs!
I'm with you on the changing table. We have used the hood of the car before, which is tricky, not to mention it takes 2 adults. I've also used the driver's seat in the car, and even the restroom floor. Gross, I know. Thank goodness for those giant disposable changing pads from Munchkin.
If you stopped watching television, then half your troubles would disappear.
