today turned out to be a pretty good day. it didn't start off as much. mom and i hung out this morning. i watched my morning shows and ate breakfast. mom turned on skype so i could talk to jammma. i called but grdad answered. he said jammma wasn't home so i talked to him a bit.
when i was done on skype mom put on a movie for me. we watched armageddon. it's about an asteroid headed for earth and these guys have to go up into space to stop it. not a bag movie. i was pretty in to it. i like rocketships and people going into space. when the movie was done mom gave me some lunch. i ate a couple granola bars. i love granola bars for lunch. it's fun. after i was done mom put on skype for me again and this time i got to talk with jammma. we had a nice chat about things. mom kept coming in the room though. she was putting stuff in a bag and getting ready. i wanted to talk longer but mom made the wrap it up sign to me. i just clicked off skype. mom said that was kind of rude. she made me get back on and tell jammma and grdad it was time for me to go and i would talk to them later. blah blah blah. mom says my manners are a bit lacking. oh well. took a couple tries but i eventually got the message across.
mom made me finish getting dressed and we got in the car. we went to the library to drop off books. it was time to turn in the mushroom book i've had for 2months and the bread machine book mom has been using. i'm pretty annoyed at mom for taking back the mushroom book but she says it's time to share with someone else. fine.
after the library mom drove us almost home. we ended up in the neighborhood across the street. we drove up to a house and mom was all- can you guess who lives here? no, i've never been here before. what the hell is going on? i knocked on the door and the other mom from piano lessons opened it up. maggie's house? you brought me to maggie's house? what the heck? a huge old slobbery dog came running across the room to smell me and give me kisses. that did not go over well. dogs and cats still freak me out. i saw a goldfish in a bowl. that's more my speed. i like fish. maggie took me outside and showed me her backyard. it was awesome. they had a covered pool and a pool table- in the back of their house! there was also a swing set and lookout post like at the park. and there were CHICKENS! the chickens were just running around digging in the dirt. maggie also has a little pet bunny but i didn't want to have anything to do with that.
i had some good fun playing around with maggie and her older brother lucian. we threw frisbees. and played on the swingset. i checked out the chickens but didn't get too close. i don't want one to attack me.
i was most into playing pool. i was chasing balls across the table with the stick and making them go in the holes. i totally know what to do, my technique just needs some work.
eventually i got hot enough to go in the pool. strange pools are suspect in my book. no of the other kids were getting sucked into the filter and it was like 95degrees out. so i took off my shoes and socks and had a bit of a swim. it was fun. when mom said it was time to go i made some pouty faces. i don't want to go. mom pointed out it was looking kind of stormy though.
i got out and mom helped me change my clothes. i said my good byes and out the door we went. mom and i went to the grocery store real quick to pick up some OJ. you can't have breakfast time without oj and we're totally out.
the rest of the afternoon i've just been watching jurassic park waiting for my dad to get home. we're going to watch some pbs when he gets home. i can't wait
