Happenings about the town

Things have been happening around here. I just haven't been writing about them. Sorry. With school, work, and everything else, I lose track of time (and my keys).

Here's a quick run-down of Kid-isms of late:

Recently, Miles asked "When do I get paid?" And then he added, "You should pay me for loving you." Oh yeah? Yeah, well, I can find another kid to love me without paying him. So, there turd-munch. 

Then Miles and I have been going back and forth about his Halloween costume. At first he wanted to be an elf. Fine. However, there is a slight problem in finding an elf costume in October. So, now he wants to be Frankenstein. I think we can handle that.

Caitlynn decided to be a vampire for Halloween. She's afraid of vampires, so perhaps this is her way of getting over Sanguivoriphobia. Yeah, I looked that up. It's "fear of blood suckers." Close enough.

Caitlynn was greatly disappointed to find out that my boss is going to Disney World and not us. She saw my bosses' email inbox and got really excited thinking it was my email inbox when she saw an email regarding Disney reservations. Sorry, kiddo. (In case you are wondering, it is normal for me to check my bosses' email. It's part of my job.)

Caitlynn then wanted us to take a weekend trip to Chicago to visit the American Girl store. Only problem... we live in Montana, about a 2 1/2 day drive to Chi-town. I don't think so. Even a 4 day weekend wouldn't cut it. Again... sorry, kid.

I have more things to say about American Girl that I'm saving for another post. American Girl is scary - that's the gist of my upcoming post.

And one more thing:
You will be happy to hear that Harry the pumpkin is still in tact. In fact, Joe carved him. He's only slightly ugly now. The pumpkin, not Joe.

Cheers!
