Dammit, just lost LDB thanks to a stupid Kim & Kanye skit on Saturday Night Live.
Natter 72: We Were Unprepared for This
Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
I'm fine. There was no contact between cars and my car seems to drive fine. The tire hasn't lost any pressure, but the rim is bent just enough to make the (plastic) hubcap look all messed up. I want to get it checked out before I make a long drive.
Guess what we're doing this week?
MOVING!
Back from the movie, and then hanging out at the house of one of the kids who came with us. Much fun. So it turns out I maybe needed a day to relax and actually do something fun.
Oh wait sarameg, is that going to be that crazy week you were describing? Hang on tight!
Good news is it'll keep my dad busy. Bad news is we'll all want to kill him at some point.
Hilariously enough, my SIL has declared my dad and I can't work together and my my mom agreed. And described exactly what happens.
We'll live, I think.
In good news, I actually got a cost-of-living raise. Last year I got bupkis.
We have DH's high school bestie and his family here for two nights before they go on to the next stop. They live in Europe now and we haven't seen them in 5 years. They got in at 6 from CDG and we rolled their exhausted 6-year-old into bed, then had dinner. Then lots of wonderful conversation and I put HPF to bed. More conversation, then DH and his bestie stayed up drinking beers while I cleaned up and went to bed, and so did bestie's wife. Beer drinking went on until late. You see where this is going? Poor 6-yo is now wide awake at 3am and bored and hungry and both high school chums are blissfully sleeping. I'm gonna go make scrambled eggs.
Yup we are coloring now! I have no idea what the six year old is saying to me but he seems sincere! People will be awake soon, right?
You're a good friend, Sox. Keeping six year olds fed, warm, and busy seems like a good approach to me.
