Dreams and Things
Posted on | February 24, 2010 | No Comments
Last night I slept through the night. I figured out that giving Archie a hot toddy milk really conks him out and he’ll sleep and sleep and sleep. Also he’s been sleeping in a sleeping bag on the floor for the past week. He wants this and can’t wait to get into his sleeping bag. Also, good.
But I also had my standard pre-event anxiety dreams. Those involved empty seats. So don’t put me through another night of that and buy your Entertainment for People tickets please. I found out that we’re giving away Girls Gone Wild paraphernalia too. Yep. They have paraphernalia. And we’re giving it away.
I also had dreams that I was pregnant. I’ve had two nights of dreaming about this. Last night’s was that I was ready to deliver and hosting Entertainment for People and decided that I’d rather just give birth at home. In my dream, I had the same feeling I have when I try out a new knitting project — oh! This will be an adventure!
I’m not really clear on these dreams. Being pregnant is the last (very last) thing I’d like to be. It took me four years to fit back into my regular jeans. No child is worth giving up a size 29 Joe’s jeans.
NO JEANS LEFT BEHIND.
And K8 sent me a list of Portland preschools that offer full days so I can go be a business lady and Archie can still learn stuff and OH MY GOD WHY IS IT SO EXPENSIVE?!!? Sending him to a full day preschool is a lot like owning a second house. Except I don’t get equity.
Also, what is the preschool for actual working parents? Which one is that? You know, the one that offers care during hours where I can drop off my kid and pick him up and still fit in a full work day? WHY DON’T THEY MAKE THIS?
So that’s what I’m doing today. Applying to full day preschools. Because now Archie and I are both fancy working people.
