Oh Dear...

Ben bought a dresser today! Isn't that a-mazing? He did it as a surprise for me when I got home from my long day of working and school.

What a swell guy.

He's so sweet to me.


Anyway, I had to go babysit the terrible three tonight... and it was quite an adventure.
I looked up on the District 18 website to see which bus I was supposed to take. I found out that it was bus 46, and that it would stop right on the street that I babysit on.
So... I get on the bus, and we begin to drive. And I look for the street, and we pass right by it.
I figure, no worries, I'll just walk there from the next stop.

The next stop... a 25 minute drive later, was in Durham.
Yeah...

So I got up to talk to the bus driver, who treated me like an irresponsible kid, and she said

"Well I guess you'll just have to stay for the rest of the ride, and I'll take you on my way back,"
Woohoo.

So then she calls dispatch.

"Yeah I have a kid on the bus who stayed on past her stop which was about 20 minutes back, and she'll have to stay on 'till I finish the run."

The dispatch tells her to ask my name so they can call home and inform my parental unit.

"I live alone," I told her.

"Then why the hell are you still in school?" She asks.

BitchPLEASE!

I couldn't believe that. What a bitch.

Anyway, I ignored her after that and waited for the ride to be over. Then I began the adventure in babysitter hell...

I arrive about five minutes late to my only job...And about 20 minutes in to the babysitting, already one of the damn brats is bleeding...
I LOVE KIDS, really I do.
But are you joking me? BLEEDING.
No joke, the youngest, David, chomped down on the inside of his cheek while playing and was oozing the red genetic fluid all over...

I gave him a popsicle, which generated a feeling of jealousy within the other kids.

Great.

So I have one crying because his cheek is bleeding... and two others complaining because they don't get to have a popsicle. Woo-freaking-hoo.
Anyway, about an hour later, another one of the kids starts SCREAMING in the bathroom.
And I mean SCREAMING.
So I rush to her side to see that she didn't quite make it to the toilet, and had peed all over herself.

So there I was, stripping her down, and filling up the bathtub to clean her.

Cleaned and ready, then I go back out into the living room...

Dog shit and piss all over the floor.
With a side order of worms all throughout.

I almost vomited all over the eldest child.

Fuckity shit balls.


Anyway, I got home about 8 o'clock and Ben had purchased a dresser! SOMETHING WE HAVE NEEDED FOR MORE THAN A MONTH.

So yeah...I have a dresser now. Ben cooked dinner for me...

I have an excellent life, hence the upgrade in blog HTML.
Basically, my blog was too dreary and dark.... but my life was a hilarious turn of events.

And change was born.

So here is my happier blog with a sense of humor.

I love my life to an incredible extent, and I'm totally okay if people are aware of that.

My apologies to rachel for any grammatical, spelling, and/or phonetic errors in this post. It is St.Patrick's day, and like a true buddhist, I've had a slight bit of a mind altering substance.
Which is against the buddhist rules, in case you didn't catch the Blasphemy there.

On another note, I have to finish writing/illustrating an entire children's story for Wednesday, so I should really get back to doing that.

Thanks for reading,
Jess
