monday. my wagon is dragin' a bit. i got up at 5am! and this weather is straight up oppressive. i really want to go outside and play but man, open that door and the humidity just sucks all the life out of you. it's like walking around with a sack of bricks on your back.
mom and i struggled through the day. it's hard to keep cool. we started off by dropping the laundry off to get cleaned. while everything was in the washer mom drove us over to the dollar store. we walked around a bit. mom found some things to buy. nothing super exciting. dollar store things.
when mom was done we paid and left the store. got back to the laundry room and mom put the things in the dryer. i helped. she gave me my own pile of things to put in the dry. i like throwing things in the machines. i pushed the money in and started up the dryers. mom and i went to the library. oh man.
the library was jam packed. that's a little too much excitement for a monday. what the hell is going on? mom read a couple signs and turns out it's early voting time for the local elections. great. after a bit of looking we managed to find a parking space though. went in the library and hung out for a bit. it's nice and cool. mom picked out some books. i just kind of roamed around behind her. we really just wanted to kill some time while the clothes got dry. mom and i did the book check out thing and it was back home for us.
we stopped to collect our dry clothes and then into the nice cool house. i can hear the thunder. it's so going to rain this afternoon. mom and i had lunch. she put on jurassic park for me. i watched a little bit but ended up falling asleep. ooops. i crashed out pretty hard. waking up at 5am makes for a very long day. i got up and stumbled off to the bathroom. there was an accident while i slept. someone peed in my pants. i was soaking wet and so was the couch. mom helped me get undressed. she ran a quick bubble bath for me and i got myself clean again. mom took the couch apart and cleaned the cushions the best she could. looks like tomorrow we're doing laundry again.
i got dressed and mom said we had to go out. that's kind of odd, what's going on? mom and i got in the car and drove over to the Y. do i get to play? can i run around in the field. no. it's going to thunderstorm any minute. we're just here to meet someone. what? some guy pulled up and parked near us. we're meeting strange dudes? what the hell? he nodded at mom and she nodded back. he popped the trunk of his car and there was an exchange of money. mom popped the trunk on our car and he put this huge weird looking mysterious thing in there. WHAT IS THAT? it's a yudu machine. what does it do? what does it do? mom was all- you'll see, but not today. i don't have time to set it up. can we go home now? no, we're waiting for another person.
this lady pulled up next to us. are you here for the keyboard? mom said yes. keyboard? KEYBOARD? the lady opened her car and sure enough, there was a keyboard just like i play in music class. mom gave me some money and told me since the keyboard is for me, i should be the one to buy it. the lady loaded the keyboard and stand into our car and i handed her the money. I HAVE A REAL KEYBOARD!
mom drove me home and lugged the keyboard upstairs. she got it all set up for me and i tried it out. oh yeah. it's super awesome. i'm so excited. i can't wait until my dad gets home so i can show him.
