today has not been the best day ever. it's been rather crap actually. it started off like it might be a good day. mom said we were going to go and try to find a new playgroup. PLAYGROUP! i hurried up and got ready and tried my best to hurry mom along. playgroup, playgroup, playgroup. mom and i walked into town. we turned up the path to this building we usually just walk right by. mom said it was a little early so we walked around the building to see what we could see. the place is an old church so there was a huge bell behind the building. there was a little community garden. i found a penny on the path and picked it up. finding money! mom and i got back around to the front of the building and some guy opened the door for us. mom told him we were there for the playgroup. playgroup? playgroup? we don't have any playgroups scheduled. huh? what? mom said that she had been to loads of websites that all listed a playgroup in this place on this day. the guy said- there used to be a playgroup but not this year. humph. no playgroup. mom said- how about we go to the shops instead?
SHOPS! so mom and i had a slow wander around the shops looking at all the stuff. i couldn't talk mom into buying me any cars. more stars on the chart before you can have more cars. blah blah blah. mom found a book she thought mommom would like so she said i could buy that if i wanted. i took it up to the counter lady and she rung it up. mom gave me some money and i paid the bill. mom then swooped in the got the change. i got stuck with a receipt. mom and i hit all the shops on both sides of town and a few we don't normally go in. in one store they had loads of different arts and crafts things. mom said i could pick one thing. i chosed a huge jar full of pompoms, it also has googley eyes, popsicle sticks and glitter glue. cool. mom bought a load of random crap.
i enjoy shopping. when mom said it was time to go home i started to cry. not just a little cry. i had a full blown melt down, right in the middle of crossing the street. i screamed hysterically. mom was not impressed. she dragged me to the nearest bench to sit down and talk. i got smashed in the face by the shopping bag and then i had to cry some more. mom picked me up and gave me some hugs. i got boogies on her shoulder so i cried some more- boooooogies, booogie. mom gave me a tissue to wipe them up and the boogies would get off so i cried some more. mom was all- boogies, it's not a big deal. what's wrong, why is there crying? i eventually calmed down but i didn't want to talk about it. so mom said- how about you carry the pompoms home and we'll take your motor bike out since it's so nice today. MOTORBIKE!
oh yeah motorbike motorbike, MOTORBIKE. i talked about it all the way home, well almost.
in front of the clocktower the handle broke on my pompom jug. i had another hysterical break down. mom just dragged me the rest of the way home since we were almost there.
so mom made some lunch and i ate it. i sat on the bed with blueberry and watched toystory. mom said- ok, lunch is done who wants to go out and ride motorbikes? i jumped up and got ready to go outside. mom was trying to help me on with my wooly pullover. she wasn't doing it exactly how i like it so i had another huge crying fit. mom said- that's it, time to go back to bed and try to start over when you get up. you are obviously malfunctioning today. so she took my shoes off, gave me a shot of medicine and bundled me off to bed.
i woke up almost 4hrs later feeling much better about life. i had some juice and mom said- motorbike? oh yeah. mom and i got ready without further incident and went outside to the courtyard with my motorbike. it was great fun. i road around and around. when it was time to go back inside i drove up to the door and didn't give mom any trouble. i parked the bike in my room. mom said- tescos? sure why not.
mom and i walked into town and walked around tescos. mom got a few things and then we went home.
and that was how my day went. dad is home a little early so i'm going to hang out with him now.
