Yesterday my oldest and I watched the movies Scream 2 and Scream 3. Watching that sequel during the daylight was no problem especially since the movie wasn't so creepy. However, we watched the scarier third installment at night which freaked me out!
Unlike my child, watching that gory movie at night unnerved me and frightened me. Being scared out of my mind meant forcing my kid to walk beside me through the house as I closed up for the night. I couldn't even go to the bathroom alone! I was so scared and wouldn't enter a room until it was inspected by my kid.
"And the mother of the year award goes to....."
In bed, we watched sitcoms until I fell asleep. It was sweet to share the bed with this child who hadn't crawled into bed with me for such a long time. Instead of me as the mother soothing a child after a nightmare, our situation was reversed. I was one the one laying there with my eyes wide open and needing to be comforted.
Tonight, the kids are with my ex. Who the hell will soothe me to sleep tonight? I don't want to be alone in my house so I'm avoiding my home. My plan is to stay here at Epicure Cafe until they kick me out at 2am. By that time, the murderer will be so bored waiting for me at my house that he'll move onto to someone else, right? RIGHT?
