The Impressionable One

So I've been watching a lot of The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel on Amazon Prime.  Aside from the foul language and a bit of boobage on the first episode, it is great.

Robb can tell when I talk to a certain sister because I start up on the witty come backs.  I can tell when I've been watching Mrs. Maisel, because even I can tell that at least I'm thinking I'm funny. snarky, whatever.  I'm sure everyone else in the house knows too.  That's I've been watching that show I mean.  No one thinks I'm funny.

I'm beginning to doubt it now too...

I won't quit my day job!

Anyway, the temp here has been cut in two.  And by that I mean that it was 62 yesterday, so you do the math.  Leon's eyes froze in the two minutes we were outside this morning, so he did laps to the mail boxes and back until the bus came.

I rue the day when I have to drag an electric blanket and extension cord across the street so his little tushy can stay warm...  And it will happen.

He hasn't been sleeping in his bedroom for the last couple months.  Halloween really did a number on him and since we have the couch in our bedroom now, he whines that his bed is SO uncomfortable and the couch doesn't hurt his back.  What is he??  51?  Nope, that's me.

Last night, Robb had to go pick up a kid, so I pulled out a chapter book and with my flashlight, I lay on the bottom bed and read aloud to him two chapters out of the Bobbsey Twins.  I hadn't realized how boring that book really was...  But I did realize that the dogs hadn't been put out yet, so I told him I was going to take a break and run take care of them quick.  I'd be right back.  

No sounds from the loft...  I thought he was putting me on!  So I took care of the dogs and came back, still nothing.  I almost shook his foot to test him.  He was either faking REALLY good so that he could come into my room in two minutes with a wild story of a made up scary dream (he does that) or he was reallio and trulio asleep.  

I guess he was trulio asleep (I was wrong. Bobbsey Twins rock!) because he didn't come into our room until 1am and I got to watch another episode of Mrs. Maisel before Robb got home.

So now, I'll just be cracking myself up over here all by myself all day.

I am hysterical!  Just ask me.
