I have decided not to take Shelby to the playground anymore, since there always seems to be a kid who wont leave her alone so that I can leave. The other day we took her and Dylan out to play, and not only did this little boy get her to chase him around the jungle gym so that her leash got all tangled around me- its a retractable one, and does NOT feel good on bare skin- but he also took my bubbles and spilled the whole tube on the floor. One of the little girls who lives in our building always whines for her to come out and play-but she cant go without me and I always have to run WITH shelby and the girl since shes on a leash so thats just out of the question. There have been countless times where I have had to sit through her foot stomping tantrum because I wont let the dog go out and play with her.
Now the little boy who always walks around by himself and blows "sleeping spells" at her through a hollow broom stick is someone I can get along with. He's cool. Mostly because he has a mind thats out of the norm, mostly because he doesn't beg us to stay-actually he begs us to leave- but mostly mostly because he drives Chad crazy, and I just think thats funny.
Dont get me wrong, I do like kids. I have one of my own. I just don't have a whole lot of patience for people in general-no matter what size or age. Especially when they spill my bubbles.
