not the way it's supposed to work...

So, I've been a nanny or baby-sitting for how long now? a LONG time... and it has always worked very well as what I like to call the best form of birth control EVER! I love the kids - it's great hanging out with them all day, and I couldn't think of a better job in the world, but when 6 o'clock comes around and the parents come home, I am so happy to be outta here! But lately, with this additional little year old munchkin I have, it's been having the opposite effect. I'm really sad when his parents come home, I just want to stay with him ALL the time! And it's not like he's the perfect little baby or something, he screams quite a lot, is spoiled rotten by his family, and happens to know just how cute he is and is already quite manipulative in using it to his advantage ;)
I'm thinking it'll pass... this constant craving of wanting to have kids of my own! And even if it doesn't, it's not like there's a whole lot I can do about it - a few things I need to happen first before kids can enter the picture...
And Craig's partly right too - he tells me, "the smaller they are, the more they're false advertising..."
So anyways, that's all about that.
Just to fill you in on how adorable this little munchkin is, today we were listening to Metallica, I was going through his parent's CD collection - and Ethan's sitting on my lap doing his version of dancing which remarkably looked like a really good head bang - it was hilarious. I had to show the parents when they got home!
Okay on to other things...
I got myself on the "cancellation" list for the gastroenterologist appointment, and I talked to my doctor about travelling and she said just to wait until I get my results back from this barium enema I have on March 10 and it should be able to help them pinpoint exactly what the problem is because there's not much difference between it and the colonscopy in terms of possible diagnosises (sp?). If there is a problem like colitis or any of those other diseases travel to southeast Asia would definitely not be recommended, but if it's something simpler like an ulcer (that's what I'm rootin for ;) ) then I'm go for launch! I'm sure it's something simple - I'm just counting down the days til I can actually find out! But is that too late to get back to you? Middle of March? It's probably cutting it close... I dunno - oh so much confusion :)
Went to a small town wedding dance last weekend, and it wasn't our small town! It was for Trac's cousin Lindsey, do you remember her? She lived in Calgary for a while and was out with us a few times that you were out with us, the day we got evicted was one of those times ;) she's super gorgeous with curly blonde hair. Anyways, not important - it was her wedding up in Devon. Lots of cute guys, didn't make out with any of them unfortunately! Crawled across the street to our hotel room, went to the bathroom without turning on the light and I must have passed out for a minute because when I woke up I found myself trapped in this pitch black little room and I didn't want to make any noise because I was afraid I would wake everyone up, and I couldn't figure out how to get out! Started feeling a little clausterphobic clawing my way around trying to find the doorknob. I somehow located the hinges and actually took one of them out before realizing that I could just reach over and most likely find the doorknob. Too funny. Went to bed and when we woke up in the morning Jar's saying, "does anyone know why one of the hinges on the bathroom door is undone?" then it all came back to me! Oy, oy, oy - silly drunk Ang! So yeah, that's that... not much else to report. I should get back to my English distance ed course. Yuck. I hate English. And I could live the rest of my life quite happily if no one ever mentioned the word "symbolism" to me again!!!!
Anyhoo... I love you.. .monkey chew...
