Yesterday, Kyan and I spent a large portion of the day lazing around in our pajamas. Well, me in my pajamas, him in his diaper. I let him roll around outside in his walker and play in the grass while I finally got around to cleaning out my car. It's so much nicer in there now, and I bought a vanilla scented air freshener for it. Althought I managed to spill yogurt in it this morning. Messes don't take me long.
I attempted to get to WIC, once again. It started at 8:15am, and I walked in at 8:30. Of course, with my luck and all, they were already booked for the rest of the day. Already! In the span of 15 minutes! Who else does that happen to other than me? I decided we needed something else to fill our time. We made our way to Wal Mart and I fingered through various items I wanted but couldn't buy (a red purse, sunglasses with rhinestone, a digital camera). Kyan was making his cranky noises, as I'd made him get up a few hours earlier than usual and he was ready for a nap. I stopped at the in-store McDonald's and grabbed a biscuit, then had a seat to eat and nurse Kyan. A man sat near me and gave me a smile. It was a "how endearing" smile, not "mmm, boobies."
When we were both done, I sat there for a minute. When I finally stood and started to gather my things, the man jumped up and offered to throw away my trash for me, and said goodbye to "the baby and his pretty mommy." He was very nice. I walked a few stores down to Sally's for a bottle of hair dye. I was wanting to bleach the dark brown out of my hair and put in something lighter. I settled on "Reddish Blonde." When we came home, I let Kyan sleep while I dyed my hair. "Reddish" ended up being the more overpowering of the equation, but at least it's not so dark anymore.
Kyan woke up and we played a little, then I decided we should go return some movies that were rented and stop by Family Dollar to see if they had some cheap sneakers, because Kyan is in need. We get there, and as I'm stepping out of my car, another car that was on its way out of the parking lot stops. I realize there's a guy in the driver's seat, staring me down. I ignore him, but he whistles. I laugh it off. He pulls around to my car. I go about my business of getting a few things out, while he makes comments about "damn girl" and yadda yadda. Right as I'm reaching in to get Kyan, he asks, "You got a man?" I emerge from the backseat with Kyan in tow and say, "I have a child, what do you think?" He drove off without another word after that. Damn Adairsville.
I bought this baseball outfit for Kyan at the Family Dollar. $5
I did not, however, find any shoes.
