I'm the favorite!

Okay, really...I'm not, but tonight I went to meet N's dad so he could throw the baseball with N, and baby E lunged at me from his perch in his dad's arms.  I claim to be his favorite, but I might look vaguely like his mom, so that's probably a more reasonable assumption.  I could be the favorite though...I could be somebody's favorite. 

Someday.  Just not today.

Today was a much better day.  Both boys had good days, both did their homework with minimal complaining, and they even got along.  I was just waiting for the other shoe to drop, but it didn't...probably because B left for the rest of the week.  He's going to spend some time with his sisters this weekend, so that should be fun for him.

Today was devoted to laundry and ignoring the fact that other people exist.  In fact, my first interaction with anyone was a text message from my friend, Chris, at 1:21 this afternoon...and it was lovely.  Unfortunately, my second interaction was with B's dad...and that didn't go nearly as bad as I expected.  Then again, it wasn't in person, so there was a bit of a buffer.

When he came to pick B up this afternoon, he stuck around so the boys could play Halo, and being the polite person I am, I tried my hardest to come up with harmless polite conversation instead of blatantly ignoring him like I would have done if I weren't so mature.

That made me giggle.

Tomorrow, I have to go to class from 9-12, and I'm not even bummed about it.  I'm not looking forward to the traffic or the horrible lack of parking, but I like being in class where I can interact with people.  It's better than doing it in an online forum.  Don't get me wrong, the online forum has its advantages...like being able to participate in my pajamas in bed, but there's something about actually hearing other people's points of view...especially when they're completely out there, that's a lot of fun.

I swear, I'd be a student forever if I could. 

I can't believe I just typed that.

And with that, I'm going to be a responsible adult and go to bed before 10:30.

Yeah, I can't believe I just typed that either.
