So I’m back. Life has been rather boring with little to say or write about so its been rather quiet. A lot of long workdays for Ryan leaving us at the house. One big thing for me… its So You Think You Can Dance season! My favorite part of the year. You can keep your American Idols and America’s Got Talent… give me a bunch of freakishly amazing dancers anyday. My current favorites are Matt Dorame and Chelsie Hightower but really I love them all. Thursdays are awful for me because I don’t want anyone to leave but I have to say goodbye to two people anyways. *le sigh*
We also went out to eat the other day. It was supposed to be a peaceful dinner that was totally disrupted by this lady that got a little too close for comfort. I mean, there’s personal space, right? Its important but its also important with people’s children. Now I’m used to having strangers come up and talk to Elijah… he is the cutest baby ever, it happens… but this lady just crossed a line. She worked there at the restraunt… wasn’t our waitress, just worked there. At first she just came over and talked and I’m like, alright. Nothing wrong with that. So we get our food and we’re eating, I see the lady coming back out of the corner of my eye and turn towards her and she holds up her finger to her lips like she’s going to sneak up on him which is weird as he’s two and not going to be disrupted at all but I’m like, whatever, and she comes up and wraps her arms around him and kisses him on the cheek! Which, obviously, ticked me off. You don’t kiss the baby’s of strangers without their permission. You just… you just don’t! I figure that’s pretty universal, right?
But it wasn’t over. Not yet. She’s around for most of our meal, making Ryan and I both a little perturbed and we finally get our ticket and are about to leave and guess what she does? She comes, once again without our permission, takes him out of his highchair and is all carrying him around saying crap about how he is her baby now and how she’s going to take him home with her… Keep in mind we have never met this lady before in our life. For all we know she means it and Ryan and I are doing this nervous laughter and eyeing each other, both just about to pounce on this lady when finally she just pushes me over the edge.
See, there is only one thing that Elijah is afraid of… heights. He hates heights so she decides to throw him up in the air and he FREAKS out and she’s holding onto him, trying to calm him down and I just get up and take him from her. I was done. But its just… this person worked at a restraunt so you’d think she has some concept of social skills? Where is it that some people come off with just none at all? Personal space… personal boundaries… very important.
Okay now that I’m done with my rant… had to get that out… I get to throw out my recommended song. Its called “Dark Waltz” by Hayley Westenra. Gorgeous song, the video is about Phantom of the Opera but its the best one I found with the song on it so if you like Phantom, feel free to watch that too. As for movies, I’ve had a string of rather bad ones lately so I’m going to fall back on one that everyone should rewatch or watch for the first time… “Enchanted”. I love it. Ryan loves it. Its just great.
Also, I have to put in a little shameless promotion. I have a new Deviant Arts page. Its sorta bare right now as I collect different pieces to add to it but its just a place for me to display some of the graphics I have made. And that is here… http://hlewis98.deviantart.com/.
Anyways, I hope you all have a great Fourth of July. Ninja out!
That was bizarre. Glad it worked out alright in the end. Hope you guys have some fun this fourth. Love you!! Dad
Crazy story. Really weird.
