With My Mind on My Money…

Today, I got to hang out with hippy consumeristic mommy and her little sprite. Ya, I know, that was really cute. Let’s not have a Hallmark moment about it, okies? So anyways, this cleaned up my day into a nice little package, by noon. It’s impossible not to walk away from HCM and Sprite without a smile.

Even though I admitted that I hadn’t made a dent in my packing and cleaning yet and that my apartment is a disgusting mess.

Even though we went to court this morning, after I made Isobel pretty and bathed-looking within 20 minutes of her waking up.

Even though she refused to eat anything until we went for lunch (with JDawg, no less. Holy not antisocial of him.) and then would only suck back two thirds of a strawberry banana smoothie from Orange Julius.

Even though as soon as we got on the bus to go home, she puked up said smoothie. All over her dress, white sweater (you get that it’s a red, berry smoothie I’m talking’ about here, right?), stroller and me.

Even though I ran out of wipes to clean her up with and so had to use said white sweater and then stripped her down to her diaper on the crowded bus.

Even though she puked again after that.

So, I’ve eaten a semi-responsible snacky dinner; I’ve got laundry in the washer, waiting for me to dry it; and I’ve got guilt about the state of affairs around here. So, instead of packing? I’ll be washing the walls in my bathroom – all silent/ninja like. Cuz then, one room will be deep-cleaned and that’s one of three.

Even though Isobel keeps waking up and my fucking whore of a neighbour just set her smoke alarm off between tokes and door slamming.

Even though.

*hey, let me know what y’all think of my boring ass new theme, eh? and the new songs. and there’s a new book read. and and and. i will get off the damn computer now.*

    Puking is the worst thing I can think of about parenting OUTSIDE of the crying and whining. I will take dirty diapers everyday of the week.

    and on a side not I am giggling at the Orange Julius reference seeing that was my first job ever.. :)

  • Day-um. Puking on the bus. In pink.

    Major suckage there.

    Hope you managed to deep clean your bathroom, get some peace and punch your neighbour in the pancreas.

  • First, love the new look. I've been wanting to do a 3 column look re-do to my site as well :)

    Second, so sorry about the puke. I can't imagine Orange Julius smells any good that way :(

  • Oh, puke.

    Ive gotten used to the aroma of vom on all my clothes, but thats only baby puke... big kid puke? No thanks.

    And also, I agree, you need a bigger header, otherwise, me likes.

  • Puking sucks. On you, near you, the smell factor alone... Good job not smacking your neighbor into a million pieces. You've got willpower. Good luck with the cleaning.

  • I like this theme... it's like you went all ninja cleaning over here too. I was changing up my place today, I really liked a black backgrounded one, but couldn't read it... dang eyes.

  • Aw, she is just so adorable! The whole puke thing isn't fun. I've been dealing with a worrisome cat puke issue that's different but similarly, um, pukey and not so enjoyable. Hang in there!

    Don't hate me, but I like your old page better! But Isobel is just soooooooooo
    adorable! Keep hanging in there, you are doing great!

  • You need a good header. Other than that, me likey.

    Also, I got your package. Thanks so much, I'm going to start reading my new book as soon as people lay down for naps.

    AND vomit. ewww.

  • I'm partial to the black theme, but I do really like this one! Having just been through the pukes, I can totally sympathize, however our pukes were not on a bus. You win. LOL

  • exciting times you live in.

    i also had a projectile puke experience yesterday. The Boyfriend was feeding The Kid, and The Kid seemed really hungry. So two bowls of cereal, two jars or fruit Purity later, the two of them were sitting on the couch, my child looking green around the gills, and suddenly there was a yellow, vile-smelling puddle all over the brown couch and freshly-washed white floor tiles.

    I cleaned it up using a spongebob towel that I had just taken out of the washing machine, all clean and fresh smelling.

    Oh the joys of children and vomit.
