It is my right...

Yo, Yo, Yo...check it out!! After years and years of resisting because I did not want to double my chances of jury duty, I finally did it. I registered to vote:

I got my drivers license renewal in the mail and it came with a voter registration card. Interesting. I had always been too lazy to sign up. You know you go to the market or the mall and you have people soliciting you to vote. I always thought it was a scam.

I figured no excuses this time. Honestly, I never wanted to vote. The election never comes down to 100-99, or 99-99 with my vote being the tie-breaker. Never interested me at all before. I live my life in my own little world, work my job, pay my taxes and mind my own business.

Now with JT, I feel like I can't just "go along for the ride" anymore. If anything I have to at least do my part and express my opinion with a vote. Man, this being a parent thing sucks. I signed up to vote (doubling my chances for jury duty). I missed out on a vendor sponsored (which means FREE) happy hour to watch JT tonight because he is sick. What is happening to me?? Boo.

Speaking of watching JT while he was sick. I have a little story. Aya put JT to sleep tonight, as she usually does. I offered because tonight is a big television night for Aya. Greys, CSI and ER. Aya said no and said she will watch JT.

I was downstairs and I heard someone running around upstairs. Hmm. I heard it again. Funny thing is I only heard one set of footsteps. I never heard another set. I come upstairs to check and it is JT running back and forth from his room into our room.

JT kind of laughs and goes to his room. I follow him and he points to Aya sleeping and laughs and runs back to our room. I put JT to sleep in our bed and about an hour later Aya strolls into the bedroom asking what happen?! Nice. Outwitted by a 22 month old kid.
