Friday, Mar. 03, 2006 - 8:32 a.m. Goth, or not?
I never in a million years thought I would
say this but..... THANK GOD FOR
TELETUBBIES! *ducks and runs* Its sooooo not goth. But, then
again, is it? I have to admit, this show is just a
teensy weensy bit disturbing (actually, I wish Teletubbies were on when I was in
college *wink*). But Travis really seems to enjoy the show because he sits
there and grins like the Dickens, and goes up to the TV to get a closer
look. He also laughs out loud at the show, so whatever makes him happy,
makes me happy. There is also that Boohbah
thing that I have not seen on tv, but the website is wicked cool. I am
also trying to get him interested in Mister Rogers, which may take another year
since there isn't any animation and its grown ups talking on screen. He
also likes Sesame Street, which is a good thing too. I got the first
season of The Muppet Show on DVD and have been trying to get him to watch those
as well. And while Baby Einstein is still good for him to watch, those
have kind of gone by the wayside for now, on hiatus if you will. Now, The
Muppet Show is just as much for adults as it is for kids, and I really want to
get the second season on DVD because I think that's the season that Alice Cooper
was the special guest at Halloween. I'm really just trying out different
things to see what will hold his interest. Last Sunday we watched Shrek,
Shrek 2, Robin Hood (Disney), Fellowship of the Ring, and The Two Towers.
He didn't really get into any of them. I'll keep trying though. I
know I've gone on and on about quitting my job because of my hours and my
coworkers, but really, there is a larger issue here. Travis is learning
things all the time, but I am not the one teaching him. How many times in
the last year have I really been able to sit down and read a book to him, or
play a game with him? I can probably count on two hands. Not getting
home til almost 7:30 each night kind of eats into that time what with fur babies
to tend to, my mouth and his mouth to feed, clothes to change, dishes to wash,
etcetera, ad nauseum. There is little quality time to spend with
him. My last day at work, as a permanent employee is most likely next
Friday. I will then be on call for temp work and extra help on certain
cases. That way, as a part timer, I can have plenty of time with him and
still be able to work a little bit and have a little extra money, and some time
out of the house. Song
