4 July 2004 11:46Happy Fourth of July to my US fiends, er friends. :) So yesterday we went over to my parent's place as we had intended, and got stuck in the rain too. No surprise there, since this is Florida and it rains everyday in the summer. Chas was intent on going swimming, but quickly realized that he wouldn't get to when the clouds overhead were near black and the ground was already wet from a previous downpour. Despite that, it still rained again. As a result, the fireworks display was delayed for an hour. Because it had taken so long, we only watched about 15 minutes of it before heading to the party. We got to ![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
shyystarr's pretty quickly since the display was still on. It was nice that I knew a few people already. It was nice to hear about a friend getting engaged recently, and it was good to see friends I had not seen in a while, including a special person from my past. I wish we could be as close as we once were, but I have given up on the notion that will ever happen. I've done what I can, but it is not my decision anymore. Sigh.. Anyhow, I saw a little one poke his head out of the doorway to his room, so I decided to try to help "mom" out a little and help get him back to bed. I am nothing but kind to this boy, and so I helped him with his night light, and turned off the tv so he can go to bed, and told him why he should go to bed (to make mommy happy, so that morning would come faster and he could eat the cake mommy promised in the morning, be good for mommy and Auntie Heather, etc), and hug him then kiss him on his forehead. He smiles and says ok in that way he does and I leave. A little later, once I let "mom" know he has been poking his head out, and that I tried to get him to go to bed, she goes in there, and when she comes back out again she tells me that he told her that I was mean to him! I just wanted to cry when I heard that. I love her kids, and I try not to play favorites with them, but I don't do a good job with that sometimes, and I do have a softer spot for him. He is just so cute and he likes me a lot too, so for him to say something like that really hurt me. Anyhow, he did finally go to sleep and he was so cute there. Since we are working people, midnight came and so did the yawns. We stayed a little longer to see the intro to Amelie...I had to wait for the orgasm bit. :P Then we came home and.
Not too much to do today. Not sure what to do tomorrow, but it is nice to have a 3 day weekend. I need to eat. I am hungry. I have a craving for hard boiled eggs and potato salad. Societal brainwashing?
Ok, need food now. Going.
