I am hoping that I will actually post during the day so that I am caught back up.
We are taking the boys to see Planet 51 while our 16 yo drags her poor boyfriend off to New Moon. I'm not entirely thrilled about them being alone in a dark theater, but I'm not having to be tortured by another Twilight movie...so it evens out in the end. :) And, she's less than a month from 16, I know I have to let go...eventually. *sigh*
I wrote out a huge email to the IM last night, and got a fairly decent reply for once. Thought that we were actually having a conversation, until she said that she just can't handle conversations because you have to get into too much detail, they only spawn longer emails, and trying to see something from the other person's point of view gives her an anxiety attack. Really, this is an adult I'm dealing with. One that has a good 15 years on me. Yet she acts worse than my teen. Labor has never looked so appealing. Hell, at this point I think I'd even give up the lovely pain drugs just to get it over with.
Some good news was delievered today, though. She is offically the childs Mother...as long as I have the baby in Cali, at least. She'd still have to go through an adoption if I delivered in any other state. So, that is the last obsticle I believe. Legal one at least. Alls that is left is for me to suffer the month away in LA, and deliver, and get the hell back home and as far away from her as possible.
After my first email to her this morning, I laid down for my usual morning nap...only I slept until after 2pm, instead of waking up around 11 like normal. And I've still been pretty tired even after that. On top of that, my cat won't leave me alone, and her track record for giving me attention isn't nice. Normally I end up in the ER not long after. The first time it happened I ended up breaking my foot that same day. (funny story, lol I fell down one step. Yes, just one. And broke my foot. I am a queen clutz. ^.^) The last few times, I've ended up with a migraine that put me in the ER, as no amount of medication made it go away. Migraines suck period, but the ones that last days at a time are just horrid. I hope I'm just being paranoid, and that she's just trying to get me to open the Pounce bottle.
Anyone read about the punkin shortage? Shocked the hell out of me. I'm glad I got my pie stuff a while back. Can't have Turkey day without the pumpkin pie. Oh, that reminds me. Does anyone know if garbage bags are food safe? My turkey is too big for the pot I normally brine it in. So I am going to have to use a cooler this year. But, I don't want the brine to stain the inside of the cooler. A garbage bag is the only thing I can think of that is big enough to use.
