Hello, My mother and I made a deal. If I use her computer today I have to write her journal. And I always use this computer when I'm over here so I'm stuck.
Last night, I went to sleep around 10:00 to 10:30. I have been going to sleep early lately; on the weekends I normally stay up until I pass out. Michael slept at the foot of the bed with me. I guess he likes that bed too. The bed I have at my dad's is way too small for me. My head hangs off one end and my feet hang off the other. This bed is a lot better; only my feet hang off. :)
This morning, Jason felt that I had slept enough so he stuck his head in the door and announced that I should get up. Then he pulled his head out and shut the door rather loudly. The only one that was stirred by his announcement was Michael. He did a *streeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeech* then went back to sleep.
A little while later I felt something cold on my ear I opened my eyes to find a giant cat head looking back at me. That's Michael's way of saying "pet me" so I petted him long enough for him to go back to sleep. Then I went to sleep again too. (What can I say? I like to sleep.) Later I heard what I thought was pancakes cooking so I apologized to Michael for waking him, and went into the kitchen. There was my mom (Carole) fixing chicken and tater-tots. "breakfast of champions."
At the door just now there were two women asking for canned food. I felt like I should give them something, so I gave them two cans of green beans and one of corn. I have a history of giving in to people that show up at the door, whether they are kids wanting to get their ball out of our back yard or religious people wanting to talk. Mom (Carole) is taking a nap so I'm letting her sleep. Michael is asking for food.
Mom went to the store to get food. It looks like we are going to have hamburgers tonight. She returned with hamburger stuff and some ice cream. I felt that ice cream soup wouldn't be nearly as good at cold ice cream so I got all the food stuff out of the van. She got Cherry Garcia ice cream just for me and some other kind for every one else. My nephews and my niece are coming over for dinner so she picked up airplanes for Jason, Rodney, Tony & Eric and a little doll for Alex. "ARGGG!!" My ice cream is melting on me!!!! They need to make non-melting ice cream.
Teresa came over with her clan. Alex slept through the visit but when she gets up she will have a brand new (demonic) doll. Shortly after they got here, Teresa asked me to go sit in the car with her because Alex was sleeping out there. She and I talked for a little while. Then Mom walked out and asked me if I wanted any of the bulls balls they brought. I said no! After some time all the adults were outside except for Tom. The night progressed to dirty dancing with family, conversations about pubic hair, penis problems and the size of Gaspar's balls.
Just like your family get togethers, Right? Right? Right?............
