I rather enjoyed my talk like a pie rat day today. I didn't do it up as elaborately as last year outfit-wise and there was very little actually talking like a pirate, but there was fantastic hat, a waist cincher that the roommate gave me last week that's seen a lot of milage this week alone, a skirt and my threadless shirt that says "To err is human; to ARR is Pirate" - I figured that was acknowledgement enough. It was well worth it - got many a compliment on the shirt and the hat today, not to mention there was the random moment where I dropped the hat on Kidzilla's head while we were at the Common and it looked so damned adorable on her with her dress that pictures had to be taken. So, yarr.
It was a good day aside from that - there was farmers market and playing on the Common this morning (which involved meeting a lovely Welsh family with a daughter a little older than Kidzilla and a subsequent search for acorns), followed by me FINALLY getting to go INSIDE the Eric Carle Museum (thank you,![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
cell23) which was all kinds of win (Winnie the Pooh and Tomie De Paulo exhibits.... oh drool), and then lunch at Atkins and home for an afternoon of downtime and Miyazaki (Ponyo may have been cuter than a bargeful of kittens, but Kiki's Delivery Service is still my favorite). I'm really glad my initial nervousness about how the kids would take to me seems to be completely unfounded, and these days I find myself looking rather forward to the weekends they're around. Seems like it's mutual, as cell23 IMed "the crew, they be bayin for ye" first thing this morning. The Dread Pirate Cap'n Andee is amused, pleased and touched. :)
I also at some point have to scare up a copy of You Can't Take A Balloon Into the Museum of Fine Arts. I introduced the kids to the two books in that series that I have (You Can't Take A Balloon Into The Metropolitan Museum/The National Gallery) but now I have a pretty valid excuse to get the Boston one.
Tomorrow tomorrow tomorrow.... that is, if I ever get to sleep, lol... Work, WoW, and OMG cleaning. Possibly laundry. Also taking it easy on the digestion, as I can feel the spidery beginnings of a crohns flare around the edges of my belly, which isn't good. Course I did have a lot of acidic things today... we'll see.
Off to try that there sleeping thing. Arrrr.
