- I like to talk in a British accent sometimes (but really, who doesn't?!). I think I sound a bit like Russel Brand though, which is just...well awkward really, because I'm not a dude.
- I need to buy a bookcase from Ikea. I've been meaning to buy it for like a year now. They bumped the price down by $10 from last year (2009 really), so I wonder if they'll do that again this year... Maybe I should wait, 'cause I'd be really pissed if I buy it and like a month later it goes down $10 more.
- I'm job searching. It sucks. Wish I could win the lottery instead.
- I missed my mom a lot this week. Mainly because it seems to be the week of weird things happening to me, her, other people, etc. So yeah...
- Anyone want to clean my house for me? I'm highly allergic to dust, and cleaning makes me sick... I don't wanna be sick... Anybody? Yeah didn't think so...
- My friend invited me to go to Kazakhstan with her... I wish I could go... It would feel weird after all these years, but at the same time it could be fabulous.
- I'm feeling dissatisfied quite a bit these days...
- I need to find someone to mow my lawn. It's not a large lawn, so I don't want to pay like $100/month for 20 mins of work. What happened to the neighborhood kid that would mow your lawn for $5 and a glass of lemonade? If you know one, 'could you send him my way? Thanks.

The heaven that is cuddling.
So, I decided to juxtapose my last title with today's, as I talk about the lovely day that was today.
This afternoon about 3:30, after the exhaustion of school and play hit him, the three year old fell asleep on the chair watching TV. His mom came in from and errand and decided to cuddled with him for about an hour. She put him on the couch as she was leaving, and I waited until her and the older two kids had left before I tried to wake him up. So I gently go over there and tell him it's time to get up, and immediately he's diving into my arms going, "cuddle first" and falling right back to sleep. It was so sweet! It was like he was a baby again, just so calm and non-aggressive. *sigh* He's the best when he's sleeping - LOL. So we sat like that for 20 minutes. It was quiet and the rain and the wind was going on outside - I seriously could have fallen asleep myself, because he generated so much heat and the weather. It was blissful. :)
Then I finally got him up, and made dinner, and decided that he and I would make our own movie night, since his mom and sisters left us at home. So after dinner I checked the movies, and Firehouse Dog was coming on. He loves movies with animals in it, so it was perfect. I popped some popcorn with his help, because he asked to help (I let him punch in the time on the microwave), and we turned on the movie. It was a perfect night, really. The movie was great, I really enjoyed it myself, and he had seen it before, so it was fun to listen to him try and tell me what was going to happen next (he has a pretty amazing memory for this stuff).
Honestly it's the days and nights like this that make it all worth it.
