| Sebastian wanted a picnic in the living room last week with strawberries and blueberries. They took turns eating out of the bowls like dogs. Cause why not? |
1. I got a full night’s sleep last night for the first time in
what feels like weeks and I think it’s
killing me.
2. Also killing me: the fact that my children probably have
strep again.
3. I don’t know for sure yet.
We’ve got a doctor’s appointment this afternoon, but judging by the
raging whining that’s been going on in my house for the last two days, it’s
gonna happen.
4. Or is happening. Or
whatever.
5. Magic bubble time, ya’ll.
6. I actually don’t say ‘ya’ll’ that often. Or I don’t think I do.
7. Sometimes my country accent takes me by surprise.
8. Something else that takes me by surprise: Mondays. I never expect them to suck as bad as they
do.
9. Yes, I know today is Tuesday. I’m just feeling residual Monday fatigue.
10. Or maybe it’s the endless bouts of strep fatigue.
11. I honestly don’t know how this is happening.
12. Thus, my only option is the magic bubble and complete
lockdown.
13. Speaking of lockdown, I’m finally somewhat relevant, what
with my reading of The Hunger Games books.
14. Of course, by relevant I mean only a year or so behind as
opposed to 5-10 years behind.
15. I like them. They are
easy to read and addictive and there have only been a few poorly written,
melodramatic moments that make me cringe.
16. Which was better than I expected. So now I have to see the movie. But since we never go to the movies I have no
idea when that will be.
17. I told Chris that for Mother’s Day I wanted to go to the
movies and not have him complain when I got popcorn and a drink and candy.
18. Instead I got a broken down car.
19. Water pumps are assholes.
20. Not assholes: the myriad of family and friends who came to
our aid when we were stuck at the Dew Drop Inn at 7 at night with two tired and
cranky children.
21. That’s a bar. It was
closed.
22. Hopefully Chris will be able to fix the car today. You know, in between studying and writing a
paper and spending time with children and working.
23. Guys. He’s pretty
overworked.
24. Even if our car is fixed I’m not ready to give back my
in-laws car, which we’ve been driving. It’s
bigger than ours and the kids are far enough away in the back seat so that the
noise from their general rowdiness is somewhat muted.
25.Wonder if they’d trade?
Sorry about the car, but yay for reading The Hunger Games and actually enjoying them. I hope you get to see the film soon, and i hope your kids aren't getting too sick. never fun.

Truly, this article is really one of the very best in the history of articles. I am a antique ’Article’ collector and I sometimes read some new articles if I find them interesting. And I found this one pretty fascinating and it should go into my collection. Very good work.
