and it all just Clicks...

Today has been one of those days I wish I could just skip. Most days I love Monkey and tolerate Miss Moo. Today I wanna send them both away on a vacation to Antarctica. Oh I dunno for about the next ten years. They'd done nothing but fight since before I even got out of bed and a fucking telemarketer called at 7am this morning. The fan was on high so I thought I was dreaming it. Apparently Jaundice was woken by it and couldn't go back to sleep. Then I sat here and listened to the kids for the next five hours screaming and fighting and being just plain awful. I tried taking them to the park across the street... that trip laster no more than fifteen minutes... roundtrip. Monkey wanted to ride his bike and Miss Moo got over there and didn't wanna play on the playground. Monkey had no joke just asked her to play hide and seek and she said no and then he started riding his bike again and she tells me she wants to play a game with Monkey. It's been like that all day... and then the mosquitoes ate my left arm up at the park so I had to rush home and put medicine on it before my allergy to them made my arm unusable. You think I'm joking right? LOL no. Sadly I have had my arm swell to the point I could not bend it before from just one bite. Damn the fuckers!

So after I came unglued on Miss Moo for once again refering to her step brother as her brother to Monkey who is her half-brother. It's this thing that bugs him... and me probably more so. When she's here she acts like we're not her family. She won't refer to her stepbrother as her 'other brother' or by his name here. It just makes me so furious for some reason. Maybe because on some level I worry eventually she's gonna stop caring about us altogether and honestly if she weren't part of our life my heart wouldn't break. But I'd be so hurt for Monkey and Jaundice. Then she had the gall to tell me her mom says I'm wrong about how her stepbrother is not her brother. So obviously the last time we talked about this she took it back to her mom and completely misconstrued it which then undermined my authority. The whole thing sucks. Finally after I was at the edge here... literally so tense I was hot and feeling light-headed and as if I needed to leave the house to breath... oh wait we know these symptoms. When we get these we have a seizure and wake up in the hospital. Yeeeeeeah. Jaundice finally got his parents to take the kids. They'd said they were coming and an hour later still weren't here so I was getting reeeeeeeally annoyed but they finally got them and we took off to the movies.

So we saw Click. I told myself I'd try really hard not to cry but if you go in expecting a comedy be prepared. It's hilarious yes, but it's one of those life movies. Like The Family Man or maybe slightly like Hook... one of those films where a guy has to choose between the big bucks job and his family. Needless to say I cried through half of it and laughed through the tears. So many little things in it got me. If you see it and watch the scene involving Michael and Donna's first kiss where the Cranberries' Linger is playing... omg okie... history lesson here... me and Jaundice's first kiss was when I came to his place to watch The Wedding Singer. So I dunno it was a kinda weird, cute moment that made me giggle and reach over for Jaun's hand. Any of those scenes involving his relationship with his kids and his dad. Good gravy pass me the tissues. It was a great movie with everything I could ask for... great actors cast together, a heart-felt message, pee-your-pants humor and enough stuff I could relate to to make it feel real. I don't see how anyone could go see it and not like it. :)

Anyways had to hop on to write about it cause it was so good I held my pee through the whole movie (damn you Sprite!) so I wouldn't miss anything and could barely walk out of the theater I had to go so bad lol. I figured there'd be a line at the theater so we ran down to the B&N next door and it was closed. We'd just missed the damn closing time. Gah! lol Home now and the kids are pissing me off again but I made a whole bunch of new textures I needa get uploaded and posted at some point this weekend so I'ma go see what's happening around my net haunts.

kids, stress, movies
