Me: Okay, but it's probably going to drive your Dad crazy, so the second he asks you to stop, you stop okay?

cell23: WOMAN WHAT HAVE YOU DONE.
Once again I find myself rather thankful that I'm impervious to noise.
It's a kid weekend, in case you couldn't tell, and maybe it's a virtue of being sort of awake since 6:30 but it's 2:30 right now and my internal clock is convinced it's more like 5. It's been a fun morning chilling at home - there was plenty of playing Daddymonster this morning (basically this game seems to involvecell23 shuffling around making zombie noises and faces and tickling whichever kid he can grab first; this involves a lot of running away, giggling and shrieking. Oh also, the only method of defense/retaliation seems to be tickling the 'monster' back with feathers.), a couple hours this morning having the Lovebug squashed in bed between our lazy sleeping selves (again, I thank the netflix gods - hurrah for an infinite amount of Thomas and Friends available to stream to my iPod). I'd just kinda remarked as a side note to cell23 that there isn't as much of a drive to go do stuff elsewhere with them at the new place - I think it's a virtue of actually owning the whole space here, so no one's gonna be inconvenienced if we indeed hang out at home all day. The kids seem to like it too, so I'm good.
I managed to givecell23 the short but potent plague I brought back from NY yesterday, so I ended up grabbing the car and driving out East to get the kids. The drive there was fine; the drive back, at least the beginning of it, was somewhat on the harrowing side due to the crazy amount of rain. I'm usually okay if it's normal raining out there, but when it's raining hard enough that both side mirrors are useless, you can't see more than two feet in front of you, it's dark, there's an inch of standing water on the road, you haven't driven in inclement weather in a while, you're driving a car that doesn't belong to you, and you're charged with getting two dead-asleep littleuns who also don't quite belong to you across the state safely, it becomes a bit of an adrenaline fueled thrill ride. Probably the scariest moment was getting stuck behind a truck cab that was painted black in back, with none of its rear lights working... and not finding out that there was, indeed, something in the lane in front of me until I was maybe six feet away from their rear bumper. GAH. Thankfully the monsoon and I parted ways once I got onto 2 from 495, and from then on the drive was reasonably uneventful.
Tomorrow I have to drag my carcass out of bed early and be in church at 8:30am for bell rehearsal and then our performance. Shoot me.
Other than that, it's a beautiful day/weekend in the neighborhood. :)
