Deja Vu - Random Tuesday Thoughts
- I believe the post office is one of the outer circles of hell. The one near us is always jam packed and still they have only two unhappy employees working the counter. These people only have one speed and it’s not snappy. Also they tend to speak in a monotone even when they’re being friendly, which makes it a little difficult to know when they’re telling a joke.
- I also believe one of hell’s circles is a never ending carousel ride.
- I have a cold again, which makes me a little angry. I just want to lie down and close my eyes, which with four kids in the house is not exactly possible. Even when Mr. Bear is at the helm they sneak in here to pull at my eyelids and shriek unintelligibly in my face…I’m going to take that as a sign of love.
- Also being sick makes it harder to shout when certain children are gratuitously flushing the toilet or pitching a tantrum because Yo Gabba Gabba is not coming on fast enough.
- My two year old is obsessed with his right nipple. Whenever he is shirtless, he picks at it unconsciously with one finger while he goes about his business. I’m scared he’s going to scrape it off. I can’t get him to quit so I tried suggesting he scratch at the other one. No dice. He’s got a favorite nipple apparently.
- A two year old without a diaper will always find the one square of rug in the house to take a pee on.
- My neighbor is getting her baby delivered via c-section this afternoon. It’s always exciting to me when someone else is having a baby because I get to soak in that new baby smell without the midnight feedings and postpartum depression.
- Don’t worry, I’m not taking my head-cold plague and spreading it on someone else’s new baby. I’ve got plenty of my own kids I can make sick, but then I’d just have to listen to them whine and clean up there puke, which I should be exempt from since I am sick myself.
- I am so not cleaning up my own puke.
You know you want in on the randomness. See Keely The Un Mom , she’ll hook you up.

Oh dear. I hope you feel better soon. Those doggone trips to the post office and cleaning up pee off your rugs isn’t helping matters any.

Ha!!!!
Mrs. Bear, you are my hero. I want to be just like you when I grow up! Thanks for the smiles…even if they were at your expense!

That was pretty funny! I don’t blame you for not cleaning up your own puke… I also guess that the more I tell my children I am working and the more they come in here to bother me, talk to me, ask me questions means that they really really love. I’ll have to keep that in mind the next time I see their faces 20 times in 20 minutes after I’ve said, “Please go play.”
