This February vacation has been very busy so far. Mardi Gras, brother's 11th birthday, babysitting 2 full days(almost). I just got back from babysitting an hour ago. There was a change of plans so I am no longer babysitting tommorrow.
I spent the day playing with Claudi-bug, and Vanessa. We played tea party, which proved to be quite interesting.
You see, kids name their stuffed animals some of the coolest, most peculiar names ever. There was a penguin named squaddles, a turtle named Tortallina, and a doll named Mary and a cat. Squaddles had a serious sugar problem.
That's all he wanted. Every now and again one of us would comment, "Would you like a spot of tea with your sugar?" To which the Penguin would reply "             " and then Claudi-bug would pour him a bit of imaginary tea.
That is the best kind of tea too. The real thing is nice, but it doesn't quite have the same taste as the kind you imagine when your a kid.
How many summers did I spend playing with imaginary animals? Drinking imaginary drinks? visiting alien planets, and traveling back in time?
Those were the days when all it took was a cardboard box and a sharpy to travel to the moon...

Was it too much of a coincidence that I found this? This video is hilarious!!
