ladydraceFirst of all, Pea has been something of a nightmare today. He decided to sleep very little and give me very short breaks. And when he was awake, he was apparently very intent on having power struggles over practically anything.
It started early. He didn't want to take his early nap, despite being very tired. So we went off to daycare early and his caretaker was more than happy to try and tuck him in there. I had to instruct her on how to work the breaks and such on the baby carriage, but because I have about as much spine as wet cotton when it comes to stuff like this, I wasn't able to ask her to shut her trap and look while I was showing her the trick. So when I picked up the carriage, the break was trashed. No doubt she used violence on it. And now it locks at even more random times than before.
As if that wasn't enough, she uncerimoniously threw whatever toys he had in the carriage into the "basket" underneath... which was full of rainwater and muck. So they had to be washed. *sigh*
I was nervous about his first nap at daycare, so I stayed nearby and just walked around the area. In pouring rain. Only bright spot was finding an outdoor cage with birds in it. The cocatiels were very cute and talkative and the budgerigars were intent on giving me a very loud, yet very loving porn show. Ahem.
Pea slept ok at daycare, though, but the second I came home he woke up and was immediately ready to battle me for every little thing. *sigh*
Second nap of the day proved to be the worst timing ever. Which was what led to my earlier frustrated post. As soon as I started walking around with Pea to get him to sleep, the noise began. It was dead quiet moments before, but suddenly the whole fucking neighbourhood was full of people with jackhammers, chainsaws, ground pounders, lawn mowers, trucks and whatever else you can think of in the heavy machinery category. It did abate eventually and Pea was just about to fall asleep when a fucking helicopter came overhead, flying so low it ruffled my hair! I see maybe 2 helicopters a year! What are the fucking odds?! And then I could just go ahead and start over.
When he was finally asleep, he only slept for maybe half an hour, so when hubby came home, I was so ready for a break you don't believe it. Pea was still being rebellious, though and managed to break a fruit bowl 5 mins into my break. So hubby held Pea away from the shards, while I swept up the mess. While I was at it, I cleaned the bathroom floor. Back to my break. A short while later, Pea slipped and smacked his head against the radiator, hard enough to get a small cut on his lip. After that, only mommy would do. *sigh*
So no more break for me.
On a somewhat more positive note, I think I was offered a booty call today. Of the internet kind. A guy in my guild on World of Warcraft actually offered me an orgasm either in game or by some other IM. LOL! It was actually a very sweet offer, but it's too close to infidelity for me. It's just the web, yes, but it's still getting off with someone who is not my hubby, so I respectfully declined.
But hey, how often do you get naughty offers like that when you're a close to 30 married mother?
So if you're reading this, Marphas... thanks! I take it as a huge compliment. :oD
