Mrs. Kol's Vacation

[Koliedrus]

After dropping her off at the airport, I came home to take charge of the Sprats and track Mrs. Kol's flights on trip.com.

The kids were still sleeping, I shooed the sitter and sat down to have the screen ready for when my oldest woke up. I had it all planned out.

Couldn't connect via DSL for some reason so I tried dialup. No dialtone. Phones were down and the techs were disconnecting existing lines at intervals to locate the break. I was completely cut off.

Note: DSL works once the techs call it a day and stop fucking with the lines.

Hopefully, Mrs. Kol's stay here (http://www.hotelgrandpacific.com/) will be a memory she will cherish for a long time to come.

Gotta get back to teaching my 4-year-old how to play Quake without getting pizza sauce on the keys...

Don't forget to take a few 'holiday snaps' for us all to enjoy.

Yea for sending the wife off on a vacation by herself! That's my preferred method, I hate traveling.

Woof.
If it's so sick, why are you laughing?

Good news:
Mrs. Kol is with family.

Bad news:
I'm gonna catch hell when she gets back.

Everything's been running a little too smooth around here while she's away.

Translated: The kids and I are having way too much fun.

I've been thinking on a kid-level since long before this but without the presence of another adult, I've degenerated to a new level. Building forts out of furniture and blankets is one thing. Once I started mixing imaginary medicine for a sick Teletubby...

A little background:

When my 4yr old daughter was 2, I was screwing around with Quake and just getting the hang of it. Apparently, she had been standing behind me, watching for some time before she said, "what doing?"

Eventually, she sat in my lap while we killed monsters. It caused a couple of nightmares at first but she learned that Daddy could kick some monster ass (albeit with mods) and those dream-monsters didn't stand a chance. That's a GOOD thing.

Today, she made it through the first few maps (easy level/god mode; I'm not STUPID http://www.thehypertribe.net/ubb/wink.gif ) without any help from me and cheered enthusiastically each time she finished a map.

"Little Debbie Swiss Rolls and Coke (the cola) for the house, barkeep."

So now, we're all jacked up on chocolate and soda.

Problem:

Sprat #1 gets excited about anything having to do with space. I don't know where she gets it http://www.thehypertribe.net/ubb/wink.gif

Once upon a time (there I go again) when she asked to see the "alien movie", she was talking about Close Encounters or something warm and cuddly like that.

Yesterday, when she learned that her Mommy wouldn't be home for a few days, she asked to see the "alien movie". Instead of Close Encounters, I showed her Independence Day. She cheered.

A little while ago, she asked again for the "alien movie".


Well, I think I've paid my fair share playing nurse to her dolls. It's time to confront some monsters.

In a few minutes, the Nostromo will land.

Mister Rogers I am not.

you have too much fun Kol.

you make me smile with your stories. http://www.thehypertribe.net/ubb/biggrin.gif

thanks. http://www.thehypertribe.net/ubb/smile.gif

[Koliedrus]

AAAaaahhhh!!

I wussed out.

"At least you know what it's made of."

"I don't wanna talk about what it's made of..."

Pause

"Hey Holly?"
"Yes Dad?"
"What say we go read a bedtime story. How about a spaceship book?"
"Can I take my flashlight?"
"Only if you don't fart under the covers."
"Deal. Don't shake unless you mean it."

She's on her way to the Ringworld.

Heh. I got Tarryn started on independence day when he was 4. He is currently hooked on M.I.B - it combines his two of his favourite topics - Aliens and bugs. If they could have just thrown some dinosaurs in, he would be in video heaven http://www.thehypertribe.net/ubb/smile.gif

[Koliedrus]

Watch M.I.B. again. Listen for the first words in the movie.

Holly + those words + mosquitos during a cookout = laughing daddy

Credit where credit is due. Mrs. Kol's step-sister thought up the "Sister Trip" and offered to foot the bill. Instead of two sisters and one step, there are now three sisters. Aside from some spending money, I provided trust and encouragement for an experience not to be forgotten. I received as much as I gave.

I've just returned from a date with a beautiful redhead. We went to a movie and ate dinner at the best place I could think of. After dinner, she kissed me and said, "I like Shrek, Daddy. You're my hero. Can we come back to Oma's tomorrow?"

How could I say no? http://www.thehypertribe.net/ubb/smile.gif

Right now she's watching "The Secret of N.I.M.H." for the second time. She should have been in bed hours ago but any kid that laughs that hard at Dom Deluise is ok in my book.

It doesn't suck to be me.

Thank you for the award. It'll compliment the second-place trophy for long-distance spitting I got years ago. For those aspiring for the championship, anything that gives you cotton-mouth and a Nutty-Bar will provide ample mass. Strong lungs are also required.

Cartoons RAWK!

Goodnight.
