Functionally ReTodded

Good:  A short week thanks to Thanksgiving.

Bad:  Kids under five years old can’t tell time and don’t give a shit if you want to sleep in or not.

Good:  Celebrating your 2^nd child’s second birthday.

Bad:  Said child having a “well” visit that same day that includes not one, not two, not three, but FOUR separate shots in the thighs.  Oh, and that’s AFTER she watches her almost five month old brother endure four shots of his own.

Good:  Going to said two year old’s school for a Thanksgiving “show.”

Bad:  Your kid being the one that comes in and starts wailing because she can’t sit with you.

Good:  Thanksgiving dinner with all the trimmings at said Show.

Bad:  Being up with the Hershey squirts starting at 4:30 in the morning the next day.

Good:  Giving a two year old birthday cake for breakfast when no one else is looking.

Bad:  Having said two year old wait until you turn you back and then filling your wallet with said cake, as well as the entirety of the wallet’s contents.

Good:  A short week at work.

Extra Good:  Getting paid for all five days since I’m now an employee.

Good:  Football five days in a row this week, starting with Thursday and running thru MNF.

Bad:  NASCAR’s season is over, and I’ve got to spend 100 days knowing that Jimmie Johnson won.  Again.

Good:  Coffee before work.

Bad:  Forgetting the coffee is very hot and trying to gulp down your meds with it, scorching everything from the front of your tongue to the top of your stomach.
