teasing and worms...

ok, as for the worms...the other night the Oversized Asian was sitting on the couch...the frap-meister jumped up beside him, stretched out, and her booty was pointing towards OA...i kid you not...aforementioned worm tried to high five my husband. all i can say is i have never seen a grown former-state-champion-wrestler-police-officer-scary-mexican-looking-asian-dude EVER freak out so bad...i am still laughing.

as you can guess, the "worm" situation has now been taken care of...OA even made the phone call to the vet himself...i am horrible, as i refuse to take any responsibility for the animals in this house...well...let me take that back...i make sure they have food and water...other than that...finances and pets are the OA's responsibility...i have taken the high road on those two issues! and i don't care what OA says...dare he try and comment...i DO NOT like frappy...only parker and our fish: sushi. only on some occasions will i sort of maybe just a little give fraps some love...rare...

now...teasing...the grim part of my story. jay-bob seems to like school. it's frustrating to me...the control-freak-neurotic-mom to not know EVERYTHING that happened at school. well, my five year old who hasn't been able to touch a video game ALL DAY!! isn't about to spill the beans on his whole day...not to mention..those "wh" questions are a bit overwhelming for him. so i take the stories as i can get them. tonight, in the bath...once again...the prodding...i got:
well, that one boy...he was teasing me...(mumble mumble)...he say i thwree...well...i tease him back...and then he keep teasing me...so he huwrt my fweelings...that make me sad...

ok...i want a full description. is it wrong of me to trip this child on his way into class tomorrow? i mean...he does know who he's dealing with right? i high-fived a "butt-worm" last week! i am not scared of a little five year old!

ok, so i am scared of little five year olds...scared that they will make my adorable unselfconscious little clean slate of a precious child a bitter insecure self conscious quirky kid. i went with the whole: we don't tease others because they are teasing us routine, followed by: make sure you tell the teacher when someone is mean to you, adding: well, hey buddy, let's focus on the good part of today...who was really nice to you? without skipping a beat he said: ty and that othewr gurwl...

let's be honest...if i made a list of every time either of my kiddos said someone was teasing them(b/c in their child's world...me making them take a bath before bed "hurwts theiwr fweelings") i'd be pretty busy...i am betting this little boy wasn't doing anything esp hurtful. but you can bet...i'll know tomorrow exactly where he sits! and i just may have the old frap-meister pay him a visit! nothing like some "butt-worms" to gain the respect of a peer...!
