We went to Disneyland yesterday so Tabitha could run wild in the water areas of California Adventure. We usually do it once every summer and she always has a blast. She got completely soaked all the way through and was practically shivering in the 90º+ weather. After she was all dried and changed we headed into Disneyland. Did I mention the heat? It was so oppressive that we only stayed another hour. Oh, and it was Bat's Day which is a day that all the little Gothers come to Disney. No big deal to me as I personally love their style and wish I had the nerve to wear that (well, maybe not the outfit one chica was wearing which consisted of a skirt with her arse hanging out attached to thigh highs with garters and platform shoes taller than most newborns, but I digress) but man they must have been sweltering. Especially the guys who were in black pants, long sleeves and coats. Tabitha loved looking at everyone and asked me if anyone was feeding their "goth baby" at the baby center (there was). Anyway, a lot of them kept in shade by using parasols and there were so many cool ones. At least they were being smart about it. But really, they need to reschedule for January next time, not August.

My in-laws were supposed to go see the last night of Chris's play, but instead offered to keep the kids and I could go in their place. Yay! I had really wanted to go again because I thought I would enjoy the play more the second time around (I did) and just because it's my husband and all and I wanted to support him. I had a great time as they put in tons of in-jokes for the last night and almost the whole audience had seen it already. Chris sang his monologue instead of saying it and ended with pulling his shirt open and throwing his head back a la Michael Jackson in whatever video that is where he smashes cars. It was just so much fun and I'm so glad I went. After the show he and I stopped at Denny's before going to pick up our babies.

Today I'm feeling like I need to relax so we've dubbed today "do whatever you want day." Which means Tabitha is playing computer games, I'm plopped in front of my own computer and we're not doing anything responsible, other than taking care of Miss Daisy, of course.

Assuming Chris gets home before dark we'll be taking him to get rid of his gad-awful hair and get him styling again. I've researched some hair cuts on the 'net and printed out my faves. He already shaved the '70s porn mustache last night so that's taken care of. I'm not sure what he'll do facial hair wise, but in my opinion he's more attractive with something as opposed to clean shaven.
