Grumpy

Usually when I dream that I'm grumpy at someone, that someone is Alan. And I get way more angry than I would ever really get in real life, so it surprised me when last night I had a dream and woke up really grumpy at Corey. In my dream the whole Wessman family had gathered to build a ship. (No I have not recently read in 1st Nephi.) Some of my Paulsen family was there as well, I remember my Mom and Jeff. Corey was in charge and was passing out assignments. I recall that Randall had already built a small ark replica and was sure he could handle some of the main ship framework. Dad Wessman was talking about which tools to use and my Mom was reading the blue-prints that Corey had made. I was anticipating working on the ship when Corey assigned me to go home and take all the children with me and care for them until the ship was complete. This I felt was completely unfair! Not that I don't like children, but to be left out completely from working on the ship was so unfair! So I'm grumpy at Corey now, until he can come up with a better alternative.

in the car after the eye-doctor appt.

Me: Well, I'm glad your eyes are all good. I think my ears were talked completely off my head though. (Our eye-doctor is a major chatter-box)
Alyssa: (Pause) When we get home, can I see your head?
Me: My ears are not really off Alyssa. That was just a way of saying I was tired of listening.
Alyssa: So you glued them back on?
Me: Yeah.
Alyssa: Did you get sticky all over?
Alyssa was whining when she didn't get her way. This conversation ensued.
Me: Do you need to go to bed.
Alyssa: No
Me: Then quit acting like a baby.
A: I'm not a baby.
Me: Then quit acting like one.
A: You called me a baby.
Me: No, I said you were acting like one.
A: Oh, I forgot. I'm Alyssa. I'm not a baby.
