monday things

going
to disneyland in an hour :| sigh. why does everyone else exclaim 'i'm going to disneyland!' like it's the happiest place on earth or something? it's full of the most annoying people from all over the world - and their screaming snotty children - all squeezed into a tiny sweaty space :|

making
an argentinosaurus there for a child who has talked about NOTHING else since i foolishly mentioned there was a build a dino at disneyland. sigh :|

listening
to Danny and Lily discuss how much they love 'mentals' (mentos:)

writing
letters to the boys from "Santa Claus" :) i write a much cooler letter than those send-away places for $9.95 :) and i pepper it with Santa beating himself up for not always being very nice to HIS siblings and making sure to mention he takes good care of HIS pets and room in order to get a decent gift from Mrs Claus :)

loving
radio flyer. we got our trike from them in 2002 (model 33 = perfect for pictures:) anyway it's old and it lives outdoors and it's kind of rusty but i like it that way for pictures :) after years of abuse, being ridden by adults and reckless children, it just broke. i called them to buy the replacement part because the trike is kind of like a member of our family. but no siree bob, they wouldn't sell me the part.... they would only GIVE it to me with free two day shipping :) now, that's classy!

off to disneyland (sign of the cross) i'm goin' in.......
