just another day, living in the hood, just another day around the way

queen latifah rocks.

i had nothing to say today so i looked at the headlines to see if anything caught my interest. swine flu?? are you serious??

why o why is my child's sleep patterns so erratic. oh, that's right a few days ago we put him in his "big boy bed" which basically consisted of taking the front off the crib. later on it's supposed to turn into a full size bed. course by the tiemhe is old enough for a full size bed i'm not sure it is going to be long enough for him. anyway, he seems to love it. we put pillows next to it in case he rolls off - course it's only a few inches off the ground anyway. so far only one time have i found him sleeping on the pillows. what really amazes me is that when he is awake he doesn't get out of bed. i mean we told him not to but still. in the morninng he generally gets out grabs a to or book, or for some unknown reason a pair of shoes and then goes back to his crib with them but at night he just stays in bed. even with the door open. tres bizarre.

i'm watching - well okay not really watching - a horrible movie but it is about the mary celeste which i only found out today or yesterday (my days they are a blurring) was an actual story. a ship found on course sailing to the straits of gibraltar - everything in perfect condition but with no crew or passengers on board. http://www.maryceleste.net/part2.htm
if ya don't know now ya know

so that's it - pig illness; weird kid and mystery ships.

what can i say

i don't have a destiny; i'm destiny free, really.

i bet he stays in bed becuase it's he thinks he is supposed to: bedtime= time in a bed. makes sense in a 3-yo way, yes/no?

also, i bet his bed is pretty awesome to hang out in- right off the floor, you can sit, lean, lay, whaterver.

I cut my teeth on stories of the ghost ship that sailed forever round Cape Horn, a empty schooner, sails in tatters, ropes in shreds, covered in rotted cloth and holes, but no crew to be seen, but it sailed and sailed, and only appeared in the fog, and if you saw it, your ship was sure to sink.

can't recall if it had a name or wehre the storie was from- I remeber being awed by the implications- if people had ghosts that stayed on for unfinishd business and a man-made vessel remianed as a ghost, how did it know what its business was without the builders.

the metaphysical implications were awesome- awe-imspiring.
