*aaaaah* Last minute ramblings.
Oct. 6th, 2002 10:55 pmMy kitchen is clean, my weekend is over, I am exhausted. The good thing about having people over is enjoying the clean house for the next week or so.
We picked weird boks tonight for next month. The Fuckup and Ella Minnow Pea. I really liked the start of The Fuckup, and everyone else seemed to like the idea of Ella Minnow Pea, so we decided to try and read them both. I love the idea behind Ella Minnow, but I have a terrible feeling I'm going to find it very hard to read. We'll see.
Widget was funny tonight. The ladies and I were eating soup in the living room, and she walked in, and begged for a taste of the soup. She ate it, made a face like she didn't like it (it was quite spicy), then asked for more. Repeat until Wiley called her away to go eat her real dinner. I'm still not sure if she liked it or not. Widget has started callling me Mommy instead of Mama already. It's kind of weird, I feel like I only got used to Mama a week or so ago. Last week, she started with this amazing babbling - lots of single syllables strung together very very fast, so she almost sounds like a little auctioneer. I can't tell you how hard I laughed when I heard it.
My cat (Tuna, for thse who care) is weird. She's become obsessed with one of Widget's teddy bears. If the bear gets left out, she climbs up and sleeps on it like it's a fluffy pillow. Just now, I rousted her from it, she sauntered off, and I put the bear away safe in the toy box. Cat came back into the room, and started meowing at me, asking where the teddy bear was. Now she's sitting in the Lego box. Oh, wait, as I typed this up, she decided she needed to climb into the toy box to get to the bear. She's now shut into the box, with the lid down, in the hopes that she'll learn a lesson. Anyone want a cat?
