frizzle frazzle

I have not had a single moment to post. I don't really have one now either, so this post may end abruptly. In sum: the cookie party was fun but totally exhausting. I am wiped. Isaac is still fighting off his cold so adequate sleep was not had by either of us.

Words cannot express how pissed off I am at the fact that all the major snow events thus far this year have occurred on Mondays or Fridays. I saw at least three people on my flist this morning say they were GLAD that it snowed today rather than yesterday. I hate all three of you.

I got about two miles (i.e., not very far at ALL) into my commute this morning and said "fuck it, this isn't worth it." The snow was coming down like crazy, much too fast for the plows to keep up with, and I wasn't even onto the highway yet. The calculus of a horrendous commute (50 miles total, there and back) vs. a day at home with a stir-crazy toddler is complex, but today I decided to go with the day at home. And I'm glad I did, in the sense that the weather is still awful now and the evening commute looks to be just as bad; but at the same time, I am going fucking crazy. And it's only 1:00pm. Pity me.

and now I have to change a poopy diaper, after which I think I shall give Isaac a bath which hopefully will tire him out enough to take a long fucking nap. Because I need a long fucking nap.

Oh darlin, it's one of those days. I hate them, too. Hope the bath strategy works out!

Do you at least have a few cookies left over from Saturday to take the edge off? (Emergency supplies, I'd call them.)

Thanks. Yeah, I do, but I want to go easy on the cookies on account of the whole gestational diabetes thing. sigh.

Todd and I had fun but were also strangely exhausted when we got home. Who knew cookiemaking was so exhausting? :)
