Strange

Ok, so this'll be a quick post.  Maybe.  JC just came over here to ask a question about something he had a "problem" with yesterday when he was doing the something with the something something.  He thought that my logic sucked, and I couldn't remember why I did what I did, but I knew that I had spent hours and hours on finishing that crap and I didn't make a dumb mistake that JC would fucking catch.  Anyway.  I proceeded to explain the error of his ways to him, and he was standing at the door of my cube the whole time... looking the other way!  I was actually pretty confused!  Do I continue talking?  Is this a signal from you that you don't want to hear what I'm saying?  Or are you just being a big fat douchebag?  I think that's probably the most likely explanation.  Rachel says that he angrily bangs on his desk all day long, and it seems as though there's a fury brewing in the cube next to her.  He treats people very strangely - interrupting all the time, looking the other way during conversations, acting like he's too busy to look you in the eye... it's like he can sense that we KNOW he's alien or something!  So strange.  Every day here makes me wonder why I stay for another.

Ok, so on a complete tangent, I was looking at this little flowerpot thing that Connor made for me for Mother's Day, and I am realizing more and more how amazing that little kid it.  It's a little flower, simple to make, and it's surrounded by pictures of him in all stages of his little life thus far.  From tiny baby, to babbling toddler, to where he is now... it's crazy!

Yesterday he and I went on a really long walk after dinner, he on his bike and me trailing behind him on foot, and he was being SOOOO crazy creative I was really baffled by my own kid.  We were walking behind the houses in a walking trail that leads to the pond, and he said "Mommy, there are monsters in the woods.  But really they're good monsters, they just make crazy monkey sounds, and you pretend that you're really scared.  But don't be scared Mommy!  Because I'm here, and I'll protect you."  Then he went on and on and on about this wacko story he was developing in his mind, saying things like "And then he said 'BOO', and then you said 'AAH!'  Say 'AAH' Mommy!"  Then we were in a car wash, then we were passing by a door that said "Employees Only" on it so we can't go that way...  It was NUTTY!  And awesome.  I have a cool little kid.

Oh!  And Craig and Connor went fishing yesterday, so Connor called me up while they were driving home to tell me about it.  Here's what he said: "Mommy, guess what?  We went fishing.  And first we went to a store to buy worms, and we opened all of the worms, and we saw GREEN ones that were HUGE and looked like BIG GREEN POOPS!  And then we went to the nature walk park, and the fish kept on eating my worms!  Daddy kept putting new worms on but the fish ate them.  I fed the fish, Mommy.  It was fun.  Can I hang up on you now?"

Wacko.
