I turned on the computer today to browser problems… it wouldn’t leave the page that it was currently on. Eventually, I opened a different browser and it did the same thing. I managed to get it to work but I’m not sure how, mostly just by fiddling with it or else whatever was wrong was temporary and now has been fixed but I don’t like computer problems because they can be very expensive. I keep thinking that I might have my first virus in 5 years. Sugar was feeling a bit better yesterday and when we were downstairs doing a puzzle on the kitchen table she started doing one of her favorite things… posing hypothetical questions. Yesterday it was, what are Mom and I gonna get you for your birthday? I said you can just give me a hug and she said, you’re gonna get that anyway… I mean what are we going to get you like we got something for Mom for xmas. I said whatever you like and she said, I think we should get you a boy doll. I said, you think I need a boy doll? She said, well it could play games with my dolls. I said, what if I get tired of the boy doll? She said, I could probably still play with it. Then she said, oh I know, we could get you a fluffy shirt. I said, do I need a fluffy shirt? She said, yes, you can turn it inside out and the fluff will be on the inside and keep you warm. I said, do you mean a furry shirt and she said yes. Then she said, I know what we can get you… potstickers! I said, potstickers?, the food? She said no!, pot… stickers and walked over to the cupboard where she had pasted a sticker from one of her coloring books and pointed to it and said, stickers like these with pots on them. I said, oh, where do you get pot stickers? She said, well we can just cut out pot shapes from a piece of paper and tape them to the walls in your studio. This is kinda what I did yesterday and will probably do more of today. It’s currently 10 degrees. While I was at the computer yesterday morning Sofia came to me growling with this lion mask on…
I took a picture and she came back still growling with a giraffe mask so apparently any mask calls for a menacing pose…
Then of course, dad had to put on the pig mask, I think the reading glasses combined with not showing my teeth keeps it from being so frightening like that terrible giraffe was…
