Dear Parents of Other Kids,

[tripperfunster]

For reals, I don't mind hosting your child most of the time. Movies, sleepovers, play dates, etc. I've always said that I would prefer all the kids to play at my house, because then I KNOW WHERE THEY ARE and what they're doing, but FFS! Every time?

My kids have pretty much three friends that they hang out with. One of them has slept over at our house no less than 25 times, and ONE of my kids slept at his house ONCE. He also ALWAYS plays over here, they NEVER go over there. HE LIVES JUST DOWN THE STREET FROM US. *sigh*

Pretty much the same story with friend #2. The sleepover ratio is more like 25 us, and maybe 5 him.

Luckily, friend #3 and his folks have more sense. His mom has complained about the same thing too. WTF? Do you hate your kids that much that you just need to farm them out at every opportunity and never feel the need to reciprocate?

Also?

Dear Wallpaper, FUCK YOU VERY MUCH.
We are doing a bit of a kitchen reno, and I have now spent way too much time steaming and scraping wallpaper. Seriously, it should be illegal.

Stained Glass Iron Man #2 is almost done!!!! Hopefully tommorrow.

I very much try to not hold it against the kids, because it isn't their fault, but I can't not roll my eyes when my kids ask if X can sleep over (yet again.)

Gosh, I sure would like it if someone would baby sit MY kids every weekend for free!
