Injured kid = Annoying as hell (tl;dr rant)
A few hours ago DS fell off the arm of the couch and caught the top of the laptop screen with his eyeball. He had impeccable timing as I was saying, "Get down or you're gonna fa...." SLAM! I inspected him pretty good, but damn he's gonna have a shiner. We snuggled in the armchair for an hour, which was actually sweet since he rarely snuggles anymore. He zonked out for a nap and when he woke up he lost his shit. Like inconsolably crying and refusing to open his eyes. So I gave him some Tylenol and took him to the doctor.
The doc confirmed that it's nothing more than what will be one helluva black eye. He numbed his eye a bit and DS was totally fine for a bit. Now he's ranting that *I* keep hurting his eye (I'm not even TOUCHING him, or NEAR him for the matter!). I'm making him mad when I tell him to not rub his eye. He wants a snack and if I tell him "no" one more time I'm having a time out. He was finally playing contently on the floor and when I announced I was going to make dinner he expected it immediately. Now dinner's actually ready and he's whining and crying instead of eating.
Gah! Toddlers. :::pours beer:::
SEAHAWKS! And... Macklemore. Seattle's WINNING!
