Asrai 6062 desperate attention whore postings DAW Level: "Playboy Centerfold" 01-09-03, 10:42 AM (EST) "WSC2 (FV) - Joy Ride" LAST EDITED ON 01-09-03 AT 03:33 PM (EST) Please excuse the 'goofiness' of this entry. It just hit me while taking my rats to school, I wrote it in a few minutes, and never looked back. This surprised me, because I never just start writing poetry and leave it alone. I'm a short story girl, but have suffered a masive case of writer's block. Maybe this will get me going! Joy Ride I glance at the clock, 7:20 a.m. “Oh no, we’re late“, I holler I run out to start the van tripping over a brood of starving cats “Feed the cats”, I scream as I search for misplaced java I find a hot cup, sipping, gagging “Honey, I found your coffee, where’s mine? pleas from the kids empty my mind of my daily brew Quick kisses will keep me ‘til tonight halfway out of the driveway, stop, remove the stowaway cat On our way, hurriedly discussing after school events you-student council, you-tutoring, and you-girl scouts I toss foil wrapped sugary sweet rectangles of morning bliss to the already hyped up threesome in the backseat playing ping pong between the lines while signing permission slips I reassure the kids that yes, I do see that car “Mommy, put on CD #4 song #3” brings a smile to my face What’s so funny about a grown woman still dressed in her PJ’s belting out the tunes to the newest hip hop song is beyond me Giggles fill my ears and penetrate my soul This is what makes my world spin, my heart sing still laughing, we pull up to the drop zone a mass of coats, backpacks, and girly grins exit my van As I pull away, I scan the rearview mirror one last time and I see why it’s sometimes so hard to be happy for 7 straight hours I’ve just dropped happy off for the day The drive home is quiet, lonely, long I put on CD #4 song #3, smile, and I’m happy!   Alert Edit | Reply | Reply With Quote | Top

Mornings with kids can be pretty crazy sometimes, but you're right-it is way too quiet when they're not around. Keep 'em coming hon.   Remove | Alert Edit | Reply | Reply With Quote | Top

"RE: WSC2 (FV) - Joy Ride" I’ve just dropped happy off for the day That's how I feel everytime you take your girls home. Couldn't have said it better myself. That's so perfect and wonderful. Girly grins indeed, those are the grinning-est girls I know. *sob* Miss you guys.
