Work Rocks


Ma,

Working is freaking AWESOME! The kid is so easy and agreeable to everything, and she takes this three-hour nap easy as piein the afternoon. And in the mornings I get to hang out at this swanky country club as if I belong there, and holy shit! It's all these stuck-up rich Long Island girls and the whole thing is just crazy!

All day I kept waiting for this girl to turn difficult and throw a temper tantrum. I mean, she's two, it's like her job, right? But she was cool the whole day. My teacher was cool, and every time I checked in with her, whatever I said we were going to do was fine with her. I got the impression she didn't want to be interrupted at all.

I need to come up with more stuff to do during naptime. Today I cleaned up from lunch, put back the toys we played with, called Josh and read part of The Devil Wears Prada. I almost took a nap too.

Alex does NOT like this working thing, because I leave in the morning before she does and get home after she does. But at least it's totally still light out so she can play outside. She played hopscotch with the crackwhore on our street who's more whorey than cracky today while she waited for me to come home. Isn't it nice that we spend quality time with our neighbors?

Love,
Sam

hey sam,

that sounds lovely! glad you get to enjoy yourself a little. that kid may probably not be as well behaved every day of the week, they have good and bad days, too. but it sounds like overall you have a good situation, with country club and all. i hope you get some nice relaxing mornings out of it.
