Mallory

Best Movie Ever

[picture BD poster]

Mallory’s sleep issues reminded me of a quote from my favorite movie….

——————————

[Larry jogs out to the mound to break up a players’ conference]
Larry: Excuse me, but what the hell’s going on out here?
Crash Davis: Well, Nuke’s scared because his eyelids are jammed and his old man’s here. We need a live… is it a live rooster?
[Jose nods]
Crash Davis: . We need a live rooster to take the curse off Jose’s glove and nobody seems to know what to get Millie or Jimmy for their wedding present.
[to the players]
Crash Davis: Is that about right?
[the players nod]
Crash Davis: We’re dealing with a lot of shit.

——————————

I know people don’t like this movie because it has some not very nice language in it but this is one the few flicks that I could watch over and over and over again. It makes me laugh out loud all the way through.

So, here is why this is on Mallory’s blog – my friend asked how Mallory was doing with sleeping and I emailed her this list of things that may be causing her to not sleep well. As you can see, we are dealing with a lot of shit.

  1. she may have had a slight case of hand,foot,mouth (she had one blister on her hand for 5 days – but that was the only symptom)
  2. is she working on her 2-yr molars?
  3. she is a snot machine right now and has a yucky cough because of all of her drainage – we can hear her coughing all night long
  4. only about 4 poops the past 1+ weeks, despite daily prune/apple juice
  5. new big girl bed (even though she goes down fine at night, she never used to wake up in the middle of the night when she was in her crib).
  6. no normal schedule this week (monday her friend alli was over, tuesday we were at my friends until after 7 and last night i had to watch my sister’s kids and didn’t leave there til 7p – M was asleep before we were a mile from my sister’s house).

So we have a doctors appointment on Thursday to check all this out.
