Cousin From Now On.I faltered @ 10:06 a.m. on 07-30-02
I decided to let both the kids stay home today from daycare. Yesterday L.K. was throwing up at daycare, and they had a hard time getting a hold of us because my phone is screwed up. He didn't feel like eating lunch yesterday, so by the time we got home he was pretty hungry. He had a whole peanutbutter and jam sandwich, two cheese sausages, and a bunch of strawberries. He managed to keep it all down which was relieving.
Last night walking home from the store, I told Joey to stop telling people that I'm his aunt. I think it would be less confusing if we just said we were cousins. I look way too young to be his aunt, so people keep slipping and referring to him as my cousin instead of my nephew. Besides everytime he mentions me as his aunt online, it makes me feel as though people assume that I'm old, it makes me feel old. Sometimes I wonder if people read me or read him, and think I'm some old nosy lady.
Well I'm 3 years older than him,thats it. He is more like a brother to me than a nephew. We used to play together growing up, until I hit my early teens, and he got annoying. He is closer to my age than any of my brothers or sisters, so I am more comfortable hanging out with him.
What kind of bothers me is that a couple of my brothers treat Joey more as an adult, yet they still treat me like a child. That really pisses me. Well Christine doesn't treat me like that, but then that doesn't mean much because it's her.
Joey is trying to hook me up with some guy that works at lil' champ. He say's the guy checks me out everytime we go there, I doubt it. Although I wouldn't mind having a boyfriend again, nothing serious. More like going out, having fun type of thing. Maybe that wouldn't be considered a boyfriend. Blah I don't know.
