Banned From The Computer

Okay...not really, but boy does it feel like it. Lately it seems like every time I head to the computer Military Man or the Bug or on it. The funny thing is, that prior to the lap top, Military Man avoided the dinosaur. But now...you would think he was a computer geek. Every frigging time I turn around, there he is, surfing the web, having a web affair with his fraternity brothers on FACEBOOK, or shooting emails to all his friends that he has not been in contact with since the dinosaur died. And then when I finally do get a chance to get on the computer, I hear, "are you going to be on the computer long...I need to look some things up." Now, let's keep in mind that he was most likely just on the computer not an hour before.

And now my child, my sweet precious bug, has learned how to operate the computer. I cannot tell you how often I hear, "not now mommy, I am playing Candy Land with Dora."

So, here I am, it is 10 pm and Military Man just handed the computer to me with the statement "I'm done, just in case you want to get on the computer now." It's 10 pm, past my bedtime, and he is just now handing me the computer as he is heading off to bed.

I think it is a conspiracy to keep me off the computer. Military Man and the Bug are secretly plotting to find out ways to limit my access, limit my blogging ability, limit my thought processes. Okay, I believe I am hallucinating now and need to go to bed. Maybe between now and Sunday, I will be able to complete the 5 or 6 post that I started and never finished because my posting got interrupted by Military Man and his new obsession with the laptop. But if I don't come back until 10 pm next Friday, please know that you are in my thoughts. Until next time...

You're not hallucinating. It really IS a plot. Myrtle (the spirit who occupies my home) told me so.
