(no subject)
Finally got some time to write. Elsa was playing with her toys on the floor, but she rolled herself to the tv and has been watching Holmes on Homes for like ten minutes now. Cracks my shit up. I probably should care more that my infant watches tv but fuck it. She's brilliant and tv never hurt me so I'm allowing it.
I still let her sleep on me for her naps. My mother-in-law comments on it every so often (nicely, but still) but honestly, why put her down where she'll sleep for a half hour if I'm lucky, when I can let her nap on my lap and know she'll sleep at least an hour, sometimes two? I can do what I need while she naps, or surf the internet, or read. I don't mind, and besides, before I know it she'll be too big to sleep in my lap and then I will miss it. Plus I'll never have my first baby again, and next time I may be too busy to get this kind of special time so I'm going to enjoy it while I have it.
We're tentatively planning on having my mother-in-law watch her on Thursday for our anniversary and go out to a movie. I really miss going to movies, even though there's not much out now that really interests me. I loved the Avatar: The Last Airbender show, but the movie looks all fucked up. I could deal with the whole thing of casting white actors for Toph and Aang, because they really could go either way. Zuko really ought to be Asian, but I could still deal with it for the most part. But Katara and Sokka have brown skin! It's just dumb to cast white actors as dark skinned kids. And then it sounds like they're changing the tone of it and I don't care for that.
I'm thinking Toy Story 3. Despicable Me sounds good too but I've heard such great things about Toy Story that I think it wins out.
I'm now being summoned so until next time.
