Hey, kid, why the mope?
Apr. 28th, 2005 04:03 pmI can now recite/sing the entire dialogue of the Pixar short Boundin' (to be found on the extra DVD of The Incredibles) because Casper loves it, and asks "video?" several times daily, so we watch it about every other day. And I must say, it is sort of like Yoohoo - as mr. flea says, it help unclog your aucht.
Long busy conference day has left me too tired/jazzed by people contact to worry about my worries of the morning, which are hereby banished:
1. Social anxiety from Park Mommies night out. I really just don't play well with others. I try, and I have learned a lot over the years, but it will never be in my nature. (Interestingly, in a gathering of 11 women, 4 regularly attend Quaker meeting. Says something about my neighborhood. That and the obession with real estate. Example of my social awkwardness: I asked out loud, "Do you think people in other neighborhoods are as obsessed with real estate as people who live in ours?")
2. Why don't we own a house? (Yes, despite being a huge dork I am subject to some social pressure.)
3. Why am I such a chicken that I didn't rearrange the nanny share schedule while I had the requisite person in front of me, and now have to call her?
4. I am doomed forever to pee in my pants when I cough, aren't I?
I could go on, but instead I'll try to
Bound, Bound, Bound and Rebound.
