Please don't leave me

Night before last, when I was putting Evan to bed, I was singing to him Pink's Please Don't Leave Me. (for reference: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ddZPrJ8ROto) I was singing the chorus, "Please don't leave me. Please don't leave me. I always say how much I need you." He would repeat what I had sang after each line. And then he started to sing his own lyrics, "Please don't leave me. I want to go with you. I love you." It was hilarious. What a talented little guy.

Last night, Emily came over to help me out because we were on our own as James had to work a different shift. She and I had a good time...made roasted red pepper wraps with feta and spinach. Yummy. Then brownies with ice cream. All weightwatchers friendly :) We were hoping to get watch True Life I am Pregnant with Twins or 16 and Pregnant....but MTV was only playing Michael Jackson stuff. Boo.

I think MJ was very talented and very damaged. It is sad that there is a whole generation of people who don't remember him before he hacked up his face and (allegedly) started touching little boys. But I don't want to watch MJ videos all night. Darn it.

I have a ton to do today before my boss comes back Monday. Better get cracking. Donuts for new staff at 9:30 woo hoo!

Perfect

I am in the office today after two days of teleworking. Teleworking is nice because it is low key and you can get some laundry done while you work, but it is LONELY. I like having some interaction during the day. One of the first things I do when I get to work is to peruse all my news and gossip sites. I came across this clip. Love it. I love Kate Winslet. She is a great actress and finally is getting some recognition (two Golden Globes this week!). Oprah highlights another reason to like Kate Winslet:



This morning, Evan wanted to take a Lightning McQueen car to school ("To show my friends."). He picked out a little one to take and I said, "Ok, but you will have to put it in your cubby, so you don't lose it." He put it in his pocket and said, "See, Mama, it fits perfect." There you have it. He is using adverbs (although...it should have been "perfectly" :P). My child is a genius.

He woke up terribly upset because he wet through his diaper and all over his sheets. He did NOT want me to strip his bed (he is very attached to the sheets); he wanted me to just "wipe it off." But it was on the sheets and the comforter, so it had to be done. I promised to have them dry by tonight. He was still thinking about it when we got to school because the first thing he said to the teacher was "My sheeps dirty." (Sheeps = sheets).
