So, I was cleaning up my son's old school papers and whatnot and I feel the need to share some important information I have come across. 

1) A poem from a year or two ago by E wherein he "gets so mad" at a squirrel that his "eyes turn red"
2) A progress report from this year by E's teacher that states she is "impressed by his change and control."

In conclusion, it is possible my son is a werewolf.

So I was listening to 1D and had this moment of feeling super old when I did a double take when I actually paid attention to some lyrics and realized how naughty they were. That made my drive home much more amusing tonight.

Lately E has been very into K-pop, so I am looking for recs. Because Pon Pon Pon is totally catchy, but maybe I don't need to hear it incessantly (links/DLs very welcome, ty). E also told me he wants an MP3 player and "those little earphones" and when I asked him what he was going to listen to on it he told me "I dunno... like maybe Skrillex." Who is this kid?

Hey, remember that time my son got a little internet famous? Good times.

(also, I told B all about it and her reaction was "He's famous for vandalism...somehow I'm not surprised")

I have had feelings leaking out of me all day today. I wish I could blame it on hormones, but it was just that kind of day.

Unpleasant: lots of parenting issues which lead to me being whiny on twitter and then kind of crying at E's Back to School Night. As you do. If you are ridiculous. There are just times when it is really hard for me to tell how much things are a case of my son making bad choices/misbehaving/etc vs. round peg/square hole syndrome.

Pleasant: I took myself to see This Is Us - excellent distraction and gave me a surprising number of feels! I had the theater to myself. I might have sang out loud. No one will ever know. I would very much like to see it with other fangirls - I really loved how they talked about their fans. And also their stupid faces. And their parents! I may have also almost cried when Liam's dad was talking. Idk. I did not anticipate these 1D feelings, but I probably should have. Much like MCR, they strike me as performers who sometimes need to hug.

HUGS ALL AROUND.

I am stupid into Teen Wolf. It is equally great and terrible and I don't care. But omg, there needs to be more Isaac fic because I have a LOT of Isaac feels. And Daniel Sharman is hot. Have a little picspam and bask in the glory. This is fully intended as enticement for [personal profile] tuesdaysgone and anyone else so inspired to write some Isaac fic. I don't even care who you pair him with, it could even be gen. Just, Isaac <3
Join me in my Isaac feels )

Hahahaha, so for the last week I've been talking to B about the So You Think You Can Dance / Teen Wolf AU that needs to exist. So then I wrote this piece of ridiculousness for her, don't judge me.



Sorry (not sorry) )

I had a pretty excellent Mother's Day today! I had to work, but I had a really good morning at work and there was cake. And then I got to go home early - HOORAY. The awesome [personal profile] jrho came over and watched E while B and I had a date, because that is a nice way to reward ourselves for all that mothering we do. So we saw Iron Man 3 and it was pretty great except for the part where the movie cut out and people resorted to making shadow puppets until the projector got up and running again. They didn't even start it back where it cut off, which means we missed a little bit of the movie, which was lame, but we survived.

Our son made special Mother's Day books for us at school, which included "Things My Mom is Good At." My list includes: cuddling, sleeping, cooking, driving and reading. B is apparently good at: downloading (she is in charge of getting him all his Minecraft mods and whatnot), playing video games with him, sleeping, driving and making toast. These are pretty accurate lists, except that B is a crap driver. With skill sets like these don't you wish we were your moms?
