Last night Chupie is at her computer playing one of the games on the PBS Kids website. BD leans over and asked her what one character was, she answered that he was a bagpire (vampire). Then he asked what the other character was and she responded that he was an asshole...Yes, yes I fully expect my parent of the year award at any time now. After gently explaining to her that asshole, much like jerk, is a grown up word and that even grown ups should be using them. I guess we need to curb our language more than we have.
I am totally sick. Not sure if I have allergies or a cold. Either way my face hurts and my throat is raw. This morning I lost my voice and Chupie thought we were having some sort of whispering contest which would have been fun except I have such bad hearing loss I was forced to read lips. Ever try reading the lips of a 3 year old? I can be pretty sure she did not ask for a pancake salad.
I realized this weekend that I could pull off a faux hawk with my new haircut, courtesy of The Sister© if I really wanted to. I don’t think I really want to but it’s a nice option to have.
I spent last night researching smoke and carbon monoxide alarms as well as renters insurance. How Responsible is that? I also looked into the test scores of the school district and realized they really aren’t all that great but I’m willing to deal with that as opposed to the riff-raff that is so prevalent here. Actually I’m thinking about home schooling or putting her in private school. Either way, less chance of getting shot…everyone wins.
One that note I suppose my break is over and I should go clean something.
