This is how getting home works...(at least yesterday)

Get in the door.
Chloe's not eating, she needs to eat.
Try to reheat a bowl of leftover Chili in the microwave
While at the door of the microwave, Chloe pulls a popcicle out of the fridge
I chase her down, make her at least get a bowl to catch the dripping mess
She then begins to cry relentlessly, now she wants a Lunchables she found in the fridge
Chloe sits down and eat one cracker (maybe two) out of it, I sit down at start to eat my leftovers
Chloe interrupts the first bit, and wants me to read a book
I tell her no, she cries again
Put down the Chili, and read the book, then 3 more
Reheat the Chili again in the microwave
Barely finish dinner and find the cat pissing on my sandals
Chase the cat around beating the living shit out of her
Go upstairs to check the vincentfamily.org site mail, realize that I should get the backup drive plugged back in, so I can do that
1 minute later, XP crashes, ntoskrnl error, great timing
Go back downstairs, Chloe wants to go outside and see her friends
Take her outside, but she wont unclutch me once she sees her friends
The girls go to the swingset, Chloe is last to it, 2 girls, 2 swings, you know what happens now
Hold Chloe while she cries for 10 minutes, then she get to swing
She cries because she wants to go faster
She cries because she wants to stop
Repeat the last 2 steps 2 more times
Take Chloe inside
Let Chloe watch Diego for another 10 minutes
Put Chloe to bed
Go downstairs for watch TV for a half hour
Chloe cries in bed for 10 minutes, wants her Blue and Green blankets
Find out we don't have either blankets, they are both at daycare
She continues to cry for another 10 minutes
Go to bed shortly after
