bleh. this sucks. by the time i'm free and able to talk to people, everyone else has gone to bed. as active and into absolutely everything as cordelia is, it's damn near impossible to get anything done, or talk with any of my friends. but by the time she goes to bed, normally around ten, it's too late to call any of my friends, because they cut off receiving phone calls about that time! so i'm stuck here, alone, bored out of my mind, with just a small child and a handful of pets (four cats and a spoiled rotten dog; my mil's, no way in hell would my dog be as spoiled!) for company! the only adults i really get to see are the ones i live with, and that gets boring after awhile. at least i can take care of my own child. with two of my acquaintances, they can barely handle five minutes alone with their child! the one just don't pay any attention to him, though he -does- live with her, the other is having her mom raise her child. neither have quite gotten the idea that 'mom' ain't just a word, it's a responsibility. the latter is actually gonna try and take her son for a bit at the end of the month, and was wanting to baby-sit for her while she's at 'school.' uh, -no.- even if i wasn't applying at four or five different places, same with my husband, no way in hell would i baby-sit him. he's a fussy, spoiled little snot. with this one, here's how intelligent his mother is: the -one- time she babysat cordelia, dilly was only a few months old, 5 or 6 at most, and the ditz thought she only had to eat three times a day like an adult, and couldn't figure out why she was crying. henceforth, that woman is never allowed to babysit my child again. with the first, she just flat out ignores him. he's climbed up the baby gate and perched right next to her while she's on the computer, and she doesn't even notice that he's there! and when us and a few of our friends down here in Kentucky get together, it usually falls on the rest of us to watch her son! blah. well, that's my vents, etc. for now. ttfn.
