It Gets Quieter Yes?

Does your 4 year old shut up?

Ever?

Mine doesn't either. Don't get me wrong, I love my boy with all my heart and would take a bullet for him but oh my god. Shut up every once in awhile. I now have a pretty good idea what I was like when I was his age. I almost feel bad. Almost.

If he isn't talking about everything relating to Spiderman, he's demanding you look at the tv immediately to see "that thing that looks like the Sandman's shirt from when he was Franco and tried to kill Peter Parker Spiderman's father no uncle in Dr Octopuss with Harry Osborne." Honest to God sentence spoken by him.

If he's not talking, he's singing. The same song. Over and over and over. Then there's the parrot in our house. She at least changes songs.* She's got to put her own spin on it though by adding 5 more rows and a dozen merrilys and no, doesn't make it all that much better.

I've heard "Hey Mommy","Mommy, look!" and "MOOOOOOMMMMMMMMYYYYYY!!!" no fewer than 39 times in the last 20 minutes.

I need to be medicated just thinking of Peanut at 4 if she's going to be anything like this.

*no clue who those kids are but they did a good job of singing.

Please don't say they will talk more next year. I'll lose my mind.

Nice To Meet You

Hi. I just got here last week. They call me the Littlest Little. I'm glad to be here and I'm sure I'll be seein' ya around. This my mama. She's always telling me that she loves me and is so blessed to have me in her life. Sometimes she cries. Wait, that's all the time. Someone should get her a tissue or two or a box. This is my daddy. See my pinky here? He's wrapped around it already. I don't think he minds though. This is Fluffy and she's the coolest auntie there is. Her little girl, Monkey? I dig that one. Hopefully she and I can be the best of friends. It's my uncle, Pedro Juan. Everyone says I'm a mellow baby and that he was the same way when he was but a baby. That's cool with me. I love my Peej. Hopefully I'll have photos of me with my cousins and siblings tomorrow. And Uncle Kota? Mama is trying to find the picture of us together. She's not all that fast on the uptake. Cut her some slack though k? If she gets her poop in...

Customer Appreciation Day

Dear Crotchety Broad, While I love my job and think it's the easiest one in the world to have, I do not think dealing with your ass was easy. Here are some highlights from my fabulous time with you: When your cashier is ringing up your precious produce, putting the codes in (from memory thank you very much), don't start trash talking her. I didn't hear you ask if I needed help because, well, um, I was busy ringing your shit up. When I look up because I heard something , don't look at me and say, " HELLO??" all sarcastic and shit. I will squish your tomatos, avocados and bread. When I ask if you have coupons, that's generally a sign that I am not a mind reader, can't see in your purse and can't predict the future (contrary to what you may think dear customer). As a refresher, here's our coversation: Loverly Cashier: Did you have any coupons today ma'am? (and that ma'am part may or may not have been choked out of my throat) Crotchety Broa...
