Oops!
Friday, October 29th, 2010So yesterday I was trying to figure out what I would write for today’s post… With it being Halloween weekend and all, I thought I would be really original and write about that.
Andrew is having a Halloween party at school so after work, I picked him up and we bought grapes (and 9 million other things) for the party. I signed up for that so I could delude myself into thinking that he MIGHT eat something healthy. Yeah, right! If I were in a room full of cookies, brownies and candy, the last thing in the world I would go for is a handful of grapes.
I got home, made dinner for Andrew and myself, played cars with the little guy while explaining for the hundredth time that just because his new movies have been shipped from the store, they don’t arrive at the house the second we click “BUY” on the computer. I made lunch, picked up the mail, paid bills, packed up the car and started to freak out about how much work I still had to get done.
Somewhere around 11:30 last night, I started to fall asleep at the keyboard mid-brief. I got up this morning at 6 and started working on it again (there are 5 more that are all due on the same day next week). So in the insanity of being in “brief mode” I forget all about my post.
Andrew is napping right now, but in an hour they’ll get all the kids up and throw them into costumes for the big Halloween parade at the school. Somehow I managed to remember both my video camera and my regular camera so the immediate world will be able to check out my guy. He’s dressing up as Woodie from Toy Story (although he’s also claimed to be dressing as Pluto, a chicken and a doggy named Skittles). I was really looking forward to leaving work early, taking Andrew home after the parade and actually spending a good chunk of time together – but work has again conspired against me…
Work seems to have a habit of doing that at the most inopportune times.
Anyway, have a great weekend everyone and happy Halloween!
