Amid a Baby's Wails, One Girl Attempts To Blog

[Pippa]

I said I was returning to blogging and here I am. However, I have nothing of particular interest to blog about and so todays is just going to be a grab bag.

Not good for my Papa! He owns an AC and Heating company. However, I guess we're hypocritical because we're cutting back on using our central air as well. Nothing really interesting to say about this but it caught my eye because of my connection to the HVAC business.

I wonder if Johnny Depp ever worries about being typecast? Still, as a lover of the original Alice in Wonderland, I'm pretty excited for Tim Burton's interpretation.

And this is one of the many reasons I left the Catholic Church.

In a related, and equally stupid story: http://www.npr.org/blogs/health/2009/07/morning_rounds_abortion_sha...
Because we just have to bring the abortion debate into every piece of legislation just to distract us from actually discussing more pertinent issues.

4. Baby is waking up. Will return at next nap time.

fyi: IT'S NOT MY BABY. I'm a nanny not a teenage mother.

4.5. Babies are funny sometimes. Isabelle sometimes doesn't understand her arms and legs and just now she accidentally knocked down her toy. Then, I watched as every single emotion played out on her tiny little face. Shock. Amazement. Fear. Unhappiness. Of course, she had to start wailing but I watched the scream well up inside before it finally burst out. Her screams have definitely reached a new level of late, really more of a screech. I'm onto you, Isabelle, I know you are using your powers of baby cuteness and annoying screeching to manipulate the adults to put your evil plans into action.
Wait. Now she's content to just chew on her fingers. Oh, little baby, you make me laugh and then you drive me insane. But over all you're just a cute little mystery.

This song is now the soundtrack to my last heartbreak because no matter how hard I try, I always end up the one with my heartbroken.

Sorry to end the blog on such a downer. But it's such a beautiful song.

In response to 3: Ick, glad I'm not part of that either. I told my family I wanted to stop going to church and I had to have a huge argument with my parents before they'd finally let me stay home. As a random punishment because they seemed to think it was necessary, they took the power cord to the router, so I couldn't have internet. I ended up doing what I said I'd do if we had no internet - watch TV. Religious people annoy me >_<</body>
