What, wait, really

Everything is turned in for my apartment! Now I just have to wait on signatures from the girl I am subleasing everything from and I will be all set! 

Other than that wonderful news, today was fairly run of the mill. I went to work where I feel like I was able to get quite a bit done. Then I came home and watched three Disney movies with my sick nephew, bought Busch Gardens tickets, and talked to Kayla. 

Time to go mess with my hair and see if it needs to have more chopped off

No More Nightengale

Aside from the fact that Amanda and I are a pack of crazies and went to Tallahassee for a grand total of 9 hours, I experienced some seriously odd things today. For one, she introduced me to this interesting (read: bizarre, odd, weird) podcast called "Welcome to Night Vale" which she was introduced to by her friend Joyska. They are thoroughly entertained by this venture but it and all its glorious weirdness was too much for my brain to handle on the car ride back home so it put me to sleep. Consistently. 

My sleeping abilities are pretty impressive, I can sleep anywhere. But listening to that podcast is like being sedated for me. And it's not that it wasn't interesting, I'm just so overly tired that I couldn't focus on what was going on and the narrator's voice as Ceceil was like listening to a bedtime story.

We eventually made it home, the two of us exhausted. I went to the last ten minutes of my nephews birthday party and then we came home where I babysat and played Sims in order to keep myself awake until right now. Goodnight.  

The Little Things

The phrases: " Kid's say the darnedest things" and "out of the mouth of babes" have been resonating with me a whole bunch now that I've been home for a while. I missed so much of my nephew's 6 years being at school and thats just how life goes. He's not my son obviously but he might as well be like a brother when  you look at my family dynamic. Regardless, he says some pretty awesome stuff and the kid doesn't forget anything. He also get's really funny when I leave to go somewhere without the family. For example, yesterday I left his presence around 12 and didn't see him until this morning. In those 24 hours, allhe did  was ask where I was and when I would be back. In previous situations he has wondered what I was going to eat where ever I was and if I was going to like it. 

What causes me to write this though is the fact that he gave me a present today. Yesterday he had to sit through his brother's speech therapy. He gets a prize  for doing this. He saw that there were two of something and he ran back to the therapist and asked if he could have both because he wanted to "give one to my aunt Kate." They were matching Olaf sticker's because he hears me singing Frozen songs from work all the time.

Also today he gave me a complete run down of my schedule for the next three days which includes:

"You're going to work today? I though that was tomorrow? Oh wait, you work tomorrow too. And then the next day you get to see your rockstar friend [he's referring to Hunter Hayes] and then you come home and then you go to work right?"

He can't read but he know's my schedule almost better than I do.
