Fold My Laundry Please

Aaaaargh!

Is there anything more frustrating than having written a long post and happily going to hit publish, but inexplicably closing the window instead?  Wait!  There is something more frustrating!  Realizing, as your efforts disappear from sight, that you ignored your better instinct when it repeatedly whispered, "Make sure you’re saving your progress."  *sigh*  So there was supposed to be a wonderful post for you to read today, but I’m retarded.  And trust me, it was hilarious.  You’re really missing out.

So intead,  I’ll share a cute story about Gideon from this morning.

I was going about my morning business when Gideon bounced over to me.  "Mommy!  Mommy!  Come see what I did!"

"What is it, love?"

"Look!"

He had been playing with the magnetic letters and numbers on our dishwasher and had put several numbers in order.

"See, Mommy?  I know my numbers!"

I saw that he had put them in the correct order and was properly impressed.  We are missing a few numbers  from our set and he had even found suitable substitutes from the letters, so the sequence went something like "1S3456ED".  "Good job, dude!  Can you tell me what numbers those are?"

He pointed at each letter with his cute chubby little fingers as he named each one.  "One, two, three, four, five, six…and these two are my level 14 blood elf and my level 8 orc."

I’m thinking maybe I need to cut back on the computer time a little bit.

    I just snorted. How does he know about all this level-shmuh critters and I never do? I’m way geekier than him, right??

  3. I get that! Scares me, but you know there is a definite learning channel in that child. that’s a good thing. And while you are deciding how to repost, I tagged you with a meme. It might buy you time, or make more work. I’ll fold, while you write. K?
