it's a stupid sore throat
it was entirely silly of me to believe i wasn't going to get sick. but here i am. it doesn't help with this insane heat. i've even been amenable to getting into my car and driving just to enjoy some AC. it's funny, andy keeps trying to get me to install AC in our house, but i don't feel it's necessary. it's really not necessary, but times like this it's really friggin hot. but hey, we're still alive, and there's always sleeping so that you don't have to feel how hot it is.
i babysat julena yesterday. i don't get a lot of opportunity to do so since the nanny lives there. andy helped, but andy was also sleeping for a third of the time she was here. it's funny how much more she behaves when neneng isn't around. not that she misbehaves because she hates neneng, but i'm sure it's just cause she is continually testing her. and it's probably not worth the effort when neneng isn't around. anyway, i have a deeper understanding of how hard it is to get stuff done with a toddler running around. like i didn't want to make dinner or try to get anything done because i couldn't just let julena run around willy-nilly. man, kids are tough.
so i learned the other day that listening to your instincts is very important. i know this, but i pushed my thoughts aside assuming i was just being a silly goose. anyway, listen to your instincts.... and if i may shed some extra light... don't eat at restaurants that are rated "B" no matter how much you don't want to hurt someone else's feelings.
