It the kinda day where there are numerous things that X-Man
feels the need to cry about, yet none is worth the effort it takes to conjure
real tears. He wanted to watch My Little
Ponies, which after a long day of playing outside, seemed reasonable. The father
figure told him to come into the living room where he could stream Netflix.
X-Man collapsed on the ground wailing “No Fletflix….Plonies!!!!” Rough life.
It’s also been the kinda day where I show up for Baby’s
doctor appointment twenty minutes early, because I am that together. Only to be
told by the very polite receptionist “I think Dr. Raj is at our 87th
Avenue location today.” She could have just as easily said “Dr. Raj is always at
our 87th Avenue location, you know, the one closer to your house,
and you really should know that seeing you’ve brought various children to him
over the last few months.” I am holding Monday responsible.
Other highlights of the day included trying to explain to
X-Man why he should just wear underpants. He certainly prefers going to
commando, however he also tries to maintain some sense of decorum. In order to
enjoy the best of both worlds, he kept trying to pull down his shirt to cover
himself. In order to fully clothe himself, he needed to crouch down and pull
his shirt over his bent knees. This then made it very difficult to walk.
Frustration abounded. Underwear was not a solution. It is still unclear what
the solution is, but it is most definitely not underpants.
It just occurred to me that I signed Baba, Baby and Mac up
for a sports camp that starts at 8am tomorrow. I regret this choice immensely.
