What I’ve Heard in my Home Since December 16th:
- Justin Bieber songs, on repeat.
- The Mario theme.
- “Mooooooooom, I’m hungry! I don’t WANT an apple or a banana or a string cheese!”
- Mallory’s heeled boots, as she runs through the house constantly.
- “You are such a brat! I’m never playing with you again!”
- Selena Gomez songs, on repeat.
- The Angry Birds theme.
- The “beep-beep-beep” of the back door, every time it opens or closes. Which is constantly.
- “How many more days until our birthday?”
- Evil giggling, indicating sneakiness.
- “You never play what I want to play! It’s not fair that we always play what YOU want to play!”
- “Mooooooom, when can I have a turn on the computer?”
- “I’m telling!”
- Pablo’s ever present, “Yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah! Hi-yo, hi-yo, hi-yo!”
- Constant yelling. Nobody ever TALKS here, they just yell.
- “Coming up next, on Disney Channel…” ::insert annoying clip of annoying show::
- Three little girls, singing The Lazy Song over and over and over and over and over.
- “Mind your own business!”
- “She hit me back!
- “When do we go back to school; I’m so bored! There’s nothing to do here!”
- The ticking of two different clocks, in separate rooms.
- The hum of the refrigerator.
- Cali snoring.
- The passing bell at the high school down the street.
What I’m Hearing in My Home, Right Now:
Bliss. I sort of want to go turn the stereo on, and listen to music THAT I ENJOY, but I think I need to bask in the silence for awhile longer.
