I feel all kinds of bad bad bad.
Jan. 7th, 2010 10:17 amI have a migraine, but I still need to go to work. G's daycare teacher is out for two weeks having surgery, so I can't afford to use any of my precious leave time for things like silly illnesses of my own, because I'll be using far too much leave to stay home with G when we can't find someone else to watch him.
That said, G is at my mother's house. She picked him up yesterday at lunch, and I'm not going to get him until tomorrow afternoon. So what do D and I do all night when our kid is away? Watch hour after hour of television. Not kidding. One episode of Scrubs from the old DVR. Dirty Jobs from the old DVR (I want Mike Rowe in a big bad way). One episode from Armageddon week on the History Channel, during which I actually read some of Superfreakonomics because D loves Armageddon TV and I can't stand it. It always makes me feel like I need to convert to Christianity. Two episodes of season three of Big Love thanks to Netflix. One episode of Buffy, thanks to my sister for lending me all her Buffy DVD's.
What didn't I do? The dishes. Laundry. Going through G's toys to make room for his Christmas toys. So that'll be tonight, our second kidless night in a row. Plus there will doubtless be more TV watching. Gotta love being a couch potato.
Other good things about the boy being gone for a night- Sex with the bedroom door OPEN!
