Lapse
It seems I've turned into one of those people who dare to call themselves a blogger but only blog once in a great while. I guess I've been busy, though doing what I'm not sure. Now that Kevin is home during the day, he drives me crazy. Too much togetherness makes me antsy and I can't blog. Maybe I don't have anything to say. Maybe it's just summer laziness.
I went to Springfield this weekend to visit my family. Kevin didn't go. The only good thing thing about going out of town without Kevin is that I can watch TV when I go to sleep, leave it on all night, and not hear any complaints. And guess what I watched? One of my all time favorite shows...The Dukes of Hazzard...Yeah! For the first few moments I couldn't remember why I loved the show so much. Mere seconds, really, and I was sitting up in bed grinning and giggling at those good ol' boys. And c'mon. John Schneider was hot then and he's hotter now. Or maybe he was hotter then. I don't know, but he's yummy.
I had just pulled in my parents' driveway when my phone rang with an unfamiliar Springfield number. It was an old friend, Cristen. We have kept in touch as best we can, but haven't had the chance to see each other in, well, years. It happened that she was in town for the weekend, too. We went out to the Mud Lounge, which is a smoke free coffee house/bar. I wanted to be cool like Van so I had two Mojitos. Thing is, we accidentally left without paying. Cristen and I did a lot of trading money back and forth amongst ourselves to work out the bill and tip without the server having to bring change. We were talking so much that we both pocketed the money and left without leaving it. I'm a hardened criminal!
My sister gave me baby stuff. To Kevin's credit, he didn't freak out. I did, a little. One of the things she gave me is a little contraption called a Moses bed. It had all these things with it like little sheets and covers and a little thing for the baby's head. I decided to put it together just to see how cute it would look. Problem. There was too much stuff and I couldn't figure out how any of it fit together. Argh! I quickly bagged it all up and put it in the basement. Out of sight, out of mind. Maybe when I'm pregnant it will magically give me the knowledge to make a baby bed, among other mothering secrets. It's that easy, right?
