I really didn’t sleep last night. I may have been laying in bed for five hours, but I remember most of it, which leads me to believe that no sleep was had.
It was a late night – Matt accidentally downloaded a bad file that sent trojan viruses through the computer, which I stayed up late trying to repair. I think all is well now, but I will not be surprised if a window pops up with an African-American basketball player rapping about my credit score – I’ve already seen him once today.
When I did finally lie down for the night, Pendragon wouldn’t stop squirming around. Overall she’s a pretty mellow chica, but last night she was wide awake. There really must be something to the “sleep when the baby is sleeping” since she really, honestly kept me awake. Downside is I’m fairly certain “the baby” hasn’t slept in 24 hours.
I was up early to go to a friends house for a women’s prayer group and got absolutely lost on my way over there. So much for going into it “totally knowing how to get there.” I was calling her every five minutes for directions which seriously inhibited my driving as I’m not good at multi-tasking while driving a manual yet. I kissed the sky that I was in Tennessee as Mass drivers would have slaughtered me with my erratic behavior.
Overall it feels like a day that is challenging me to stay posicore. Just as I was about to kick the cat out of frustration, Matt texted me saying ”Extra fun surprise coming!!” When I inquired further he responded, “Special treat.”
Instantly, out of nowhere, my mind ran to “I hope he’s won $250,000.” I’m not sure why that figure came to mind, or how exactly Matt would have won that sum of money, but that’s what I thought.
I’d also settle for a bouquet of flowers.
OR A WHOLE BOTTLE OF PINO GRIGIO ALL TO MYSELF.
Whaddya think it is? Bets and/or affirmations of the wine/$250,000 theories are welcome in the comments.

oh! let me use my psychic powers here. Hmm. A HEDGEHOG. as a pet. A real one. Don’t feed him any hair elastics. Friends of ours had a hedgehog pet and it ate (on accident, the toddler may have given it to it) and died because it couldn’t poop. Sorry for the downer of a story.

I’m betting he’s done a mash-up of Disney tunes for the baby.
