Sorry about my sister-in-law asking the discount question.. When she asked it I actually thought "oh, shit!", but you turned that question around in a good way! And the kids.. Well I saw you interact with them, asking about their hamsters.. ;)
I am glad you wanted to go along, now atleast they don't think I've got a stuck-up girlfriend (which you aren't).. And indeed next time will probably be in October..
did not dare to look at you when she suggested your brother getting discount on clothes...i would have started laughing!! and had to shout out "told you so!!!" oh...and you dont have to apologize for her! she asked it...not you!
hey...and im not a complete childhater..!!! i can be nice...if they are nice to...but i always try to have "normal" conversations....and not stupid, like "who's that? oh...how sweeet...she is calling you blabrlieaiea-wieze....makes them feel stupid...and me to...no kid can pronounce my name! and thats ok...
(oh...and that campsite...would kill me...we dont ever have to go there, aren't we, hunny...please dont take me there!!! pleaaaase!!!)
never you will dress in your uniform...never the gray\brownish pants...with the sturdy shoes...nerver again you will lavish your arms in the sun, waring your post-polo...and never you will ware the cap with pride...the end of the post...your post-past
umn.. you´ll probably may wanna re-adjust the feeling about 'brats' when - if you ever have some of your own... ;)
but i agree - can´t stand parents who adore their offsprings whatever mischief they come up with. they can be a PAIN. kids.. sigh...
it´s not always that easy to keep control though. they´re not only there to be sweet, pretty to look at and otherwise unobtrusive though. demand attention like everyone else...
kids...i dont think im gonna have kids...its a long story...and it has a lot to do with my childhood...
im actually pretty good with them kritters...i try to act "normal" with them...most people act like they are retards!!! and they are not! so why go all baby-talkie to them...in stead of just normal conversation?
but i dont like when the parents know nothing else to talk about then the kids...just sit there and look at the kids...and tell the kids not to walk around with the scissors...and how cute they fall on their faces...and how the kids can say your name...(ofcourse they can...their not stupid!)and look at another photo book/video of the kids...doing more cute stuff
or when the parents dont make reasonable rules...one day its no shoes on the couch...the next its ok...and then they wonder why the kids jump on the couch with shoes on...
yeah i know.... consequence... i try, but i get so weary sometimes - listening to myself explaining, complaining, demanding, forbidding, imposing sanctions over and over again - you have no idea about them little freaks persistence. ;)
it´s looking easy from the outside. i always feel like i could bring up other ppls kids much better too.
but yeah - talking to them like they´re retarded sucks. they don´t like it either. teh.... i tellya.
im glad im not in any parents shoes...its a bit like i dont have my drivers license...but i know exactly how to drive a car....not...
it is hard...bringin up a kid...and i think im not up for it...there is so much that can go wrong!!!! not only could they fall out of the window..or eat all the aspirins and wash them down with choride....i could also fuck them up mentally!!! my parents where nutcases...and i inherited a lot from them...no way im gonna put that on a kid!!!
(+...i think by the time i think i could..ill be to old...maybe i will just adopt one...one thats 16 years old...out of the danger zone!!!)
I wonder if prostitutes get the "discount" question too when their boyfriends introduce them to the family. o.O
It's usually best for me not to mention I'm good with computers. Before you know it, you've gotta fix people's computer problems / advise them what computer to buy or where.
Hmm yes, two things that don't go well with Elouise: kids and camp sites. Hell is a place called "familiecamping". Speaking of campsites .... Lowlands???? ;)
they are also asking what the fashion next season is gonna be like...if i where a secretary, they wouldn't ask me to answer the phone when it was ringing!!!stupid!!!
as for lowlands...still thinking about it...gonny by ticket as late as possible..if the weathers crap...im not going!!!
oh - and if that´s helping - i do get asked for illustrations an awful lot too 'can´t you make me a birthday card for... you know how to do those things....' k. ´s a carpenter and everyone asks HIM for his services too - so...
always those birthday cards!!! i hate making them...go and buy one! people always ask me to make their pants shorter..or curtains...just because i have sewing machine!! NO!!!!! i can not!!! i wont...no no no...(im getting pretty assertive here!!! woohoo..im learning!!!)(now i have to try and do this in real life to...hmmm)
Hey!!! and you are allowed to tease me for stuff...i dont mind!!! i KNOW you will make me a beautiful drawing in return!!! ;)
