Nanny Adventures

So Kidlet # 2 and #3 are away with Mom till Tuesday night.   I didn’t really have to work today untill 5:15pm when Kidlet #1 called me to pick him up from the metro.  I pick him up and he is all smiles.  I know that he is getting ready to hit me up for going out to dinner.  Little does he realize I am not cooking tonight or tomorrow :)     I tell him that it is just he and I for dinner. He bats his eyes at me and gives me that smile… I laugh. 

 I say: What do you want? 

He says: Well I was thinking since it is just us for dinner, how about we go to Taco Bell like old times. 

I say: Old Times?

He says:  Yes, like last summer after drivers ed, we would go to Taco Bell.  Again he has the smile and batting eyes again while he is patting my head and touching my shoulder while I am driving trying to get me to cave in.

I say: Laughingly..oh you want to bond over junk food dinner.   Ok but you have to put my laundry in the dryer since your boxers and stuff were not dry and I couldn’t put my sheets in the dryer. 

He says: Ok I will do that.

So off we go to Taco Heck for our nutritious dinner.  We come home he does put the 3 cases of water in the garage and takes the mail upstairs. I still need to check on the laundry. 

Oh we will also be bonding shortly over the Democratic National Committee Convention too!  This is the game plan according to him:  Obama messed up by not choosing Hilary.  So McCain could win.  He will only be able to run for one year because he is already too old and will be like 75.   Therefore in 2012 Hilary will run again and win.    I go on to say Obama couldn’t choose Hilary that is way too much change for people…they would freak.  He says no he should have, he would have had all the votes: african americans, males, females, caucasion, muslims, and christians  etc.   There you have your political forecast for 2008 and 2012 from a 17 yr old.
