My day....
Jun. 20th, 2006 11:00 pm1. I woke up exhausted from two days of staying up past one to watch Doctor Who. Yes, this is all my own fault, I acknowledge it.
2. Ana woke up with bags under her eyes. My sister used to get that all the time. That kid needs to be getting to bed earlier - once we get off the bus, the odds of me making her take a nap are slim indeed. And tired = cranky. Really.
3. My mom called me to ask "so, where are you" (um, same place I am every week, Mommy -trying to take over the world at the museum), and while answering the phone, I dropped it hard on the floor and it broke. So much, in fact, that it's both unusable and unfixable. So now I have no phone.
4. Immediately after calling my mother to tell her to call Jenn and inform her of the phone situation, the baby knocked my glasses off my face... and broke them. AGAIN.
5. Not 15 minutes later, I escort Ana into the toilet (she can now take off/put on her own overalls! Yay!), bumped into the garbage can, and knocked it all over.
6. Five seconds after that, I cursed in Walloon. Loudly. This did very little to make me feel better.
7. I spent all day telling Ana why her bag was still at home. "Where's my bag?" AT HOME! BECAUSE! WE! DID! NOT! TAKE! IT! WITH! US! GAH!
8. The baby now cries if you take away her current plaything. All her favorite playthings are dangerous and, therefore, verboten.
9. Did I mention I was tired?
10. I got glue on my lens as I fixed my glasses. Again.
11. Ana kept trying to hit me all the way home from the bus, because she didn't want to be awake. Of course, once we got home, she kept trying to hit me because she didn't want to be put to bed. Naturally. Who cares that she's falling-down tired? She sure doesn't!
12. It's too damn hot and muggy.
I demand a refund. This day did not live up to advertised expectations. It's totally unfair.
Will accept compensation in the form of hugs and good (Belgian) chocolate.
