Asian Day

My daughter and I attended "Asian Day" by an invite from my old colleagues at a local community college, where I worked in the admissions department while taking some classes there. They all wanted to see the baby and by celebrating my heritage, it was an appropriate event for us to attend, I suppose. Plus, I was desperate for some adult interaction after days of NANA and BABA.

When we showed up the first comment I get is, "Jojo, you look older!" Nice...so I said oh thanks! And then on cue, the reply is "No no, you still look the same as you did three years ago, you just look more mature." I just said yep, motherhood will do that to ya, mature your ass out. Anyway, the food was good, Malaysian, Chinese, Thai, etc. and they had some presentations and dancing.

We couldn't stay too long because LC started to melting down and letting everybody know how hungry and sleepy she was in a few decibels too high for the human ear...so we promptly left before they called Social Services. Overall, it was nice to get out of the house for a while and come home. It's weird how when you're home you're just bored out of your mind and WANT to get out, but when you do, it seems like there's nothing more heavenly than being at home, and not worry about sucking in your gut in front of a crowd.

Who told her to get up at 7am anyway you know? For sure it wasn't me, it would be perfect if kids just get up at 10 or so...but I'm gonna join in on the afternoon nap now. One of the perks of being a SAHM...don't be jealous! :)
