the quick and dirty review of the day

Today was a very VERY looooooooooong day. Let’s put it this way: Nutter wakes up at around six. He finally decided that he wanted a nap at seven. That would be 7PM!!!! Holy crap. We had to go all over the place too. We went down to Verizon to fix mommy’s phone, which has been fried out. I would like to say something exotic happened to it but in reality I spilled a bottle of formula on it. Yes, I am a klutz.

Here’s the kicker… after dragging the baby all the way down there, they inform me that I am not on the lease, only bear, and I can’t replace it without him there. What the fuck?! So I am still phone less, which sucks because I am off to my hometown tomorrow (leaving on a jet plane!!!) and I don’t have a phone to be contacted with!!

What else did we do today? We went out to Hades, where I will be working. Yes, I got the job that I so desperately wanted a few months ago. And yes, it may work on the stipend repayment front! So why call the town Hades? Because it is a white trash town that usually hits about 115 during the summer. In other words, it’s hot as….

Nut and I also journeyed over to the local babies r us to buy… a high chair. Sigh. The little peanut is growing up so fast that I think I might be missing something when I go back to work. I was lucky today. He was sitting on my lap when he actually held himself in a seated position on his own for a few minutes for the first time. I am gonna miss shit!!! This depresses me and when you have a problem with depression, it ain’t too good. Cleaning out his dresser a few weeks ago killed me as well. Sob.

But Nut has a toy. A cool toy. It’s the Toy that Sarge gave him when he was home on leave from the Mideast. I can’t even explain how much this toy has infiltrated Nut. HE WILL NOT PUT IT DOWN. He eats with it, sleeps with it and pretty much is always with it in hand or foot. (Monkey toys like mom!!!)

Other nutter news is he has an Eye infection. I took him over to Kaiser and the NP helped us remembered Nut. (“I’ve seen Peanut before when he was a few days old!! I remember that I told you that I liked his name and that I worked with a doctor Peanut!”) His eye is super gross and infected. Goop and goo and all sorts of disgusting shit draining out of it. At least he doesn’t squirm when I give him his eye drops, which he needs 4 times a day. Bear is quite militant about that as well.

“We’ll give it to him every six hours. When is the next drop due?”

“uhhh… two am I think” (Truth is I didn’t think that he was going to do the militant version. I just figured that we would do drops in the morning, afternoon, evening and right before bed. But I was wrong…)

“OK, 0200 hours it is. After that, 0800 hours….”

Roll eyes here.

Nut has become very vocal. Moe and I were talking, like we do every day, and I mentioned that it’s going to be a real bitch when he starts talking back. I think he is going to have an attitude problem. Moe said, “uhh, yeah. He’s your kid.” Oh lord. I am sure my mother is laughing her ass off in the after life. I’m screwed.

Speaking of mother’s, there is a website that is really powerful. It’s called motherless. I think I might submit to it. I just have to think about a way to do it without insulting my siblings and their memories. We all have different ones.

And speaking of websites, mad world is back and I am super happy!!!


I’m going to bed, now that Nut is finally asleep.


PS really quick, the bear is NOT buying the business. not yet. I'll keep you all posted. thanks for the comments. my sainity really needed them. :P

I HATE giving babies eye drops. Somehow, the baby is always stronger than me and wiggles and squirms to the point that the medicine is everywhere but in the eyes.
