less teeth more tits.
Mar. 2nd, 2004 12:10 ami danced while i brushed my teeth last night.
it's strange. two people told me the exact same thing. i became very, very angry at one of them. the other, i danced while i brushed my teeth.
it was a beautiful day today. it is spring now. i can tell because everyone in the world was outside. it was a godsend, i think. i need weather i like. i'd still be in a dark place if it hadn't been so warm.
i got a cd from
virgomochabeing and i love it lots.
the baby has started to eat some solid foods. bits of bread, broken off pieces and crumbs of cookies, some cereal. mostly, she just picks it up and drops it on herself before she gets it in her mouth. we had chinese food tonight, and we gave her a bit of the rice. she choked on it. we were all just sitting there, doing our family thing, and then kim said, not in a voice that matched the words, it was quieter, calmer, "is she not breathing?" i think my mom might have said something to that. kim moved very quickly. suddenly allyson wasn't in her highchair anymore, kim was holding her, perpendicular to the ground and face down over her arm, and kim was hitting her on her back. ally coughed a couple of times and a few pieces of rice fell out of her mouth and onto the floor. kim put her back in her chair, and we kept eating, and it didn't seem to bother anyone. ally certainly wasn't concerned. i'm not devastated, myself. but i can't help thinking about it a little. what if we hadn't been watching her? of course we're always watching her. but what if?
i love that baby a lot. and mothers are impressive creatures. i highly recommend them.
kim and i went to barnes and noble tonight. we got lost in the suburbs. i bought sandman: endless nights, even though i possibly shouldn't have. i've read the death story and the desire story. i'll leave the others be, for a bit, mostly because i should be reading other things. (it is rather strange, by the way, to discover that abigail adams used the phrase, "i yesterday took a puke which has relieved me," in a letter to her husband.) however, i am pleased that for the time being, at least, even if neil should never publish another sandman story again, i haven't yet read all of them. there is still a bit left. i really do love reading things for the first time.
