A "Normal" Day (for me)

Picture me sitting in class having an intellectual discussion about bog mummies in Denmark and Ireland. Now picture me acting like a cat, singing along with cartoons, and colouring with crayons (no, I have not gone insane). This is how my average day goes... student by day, childcare worker by night.

Parents are always puzzled at their children's activeness when they pick up their little munchkins. I am afraid I am usually at fault for making the children hyper. The kids and I have several favourite activities...

...vacuum chase... while I vacuum the mess from snack time, the kids have a blast being chased by the evil vacuum-cleaner and screaming at the top of their lungs.
...wrestling... usually follows vacuuming and results in a tumble on the floor - and four or more children piled on top of me.
...dress-up... tonight I was nominated "King" and hosted a ball. Last week I was an old man with a beard (I even have a picture).
...watching a movie... for the past five million weeks we have watched the same puppet movie. I now have the entire thing (songs and all) memorized. Next week I am bringing my Wallace & Gromit DVD.
...crafts... being an artist, I was nominated (rather made) to supervise crafts. Tonight we made hand-puppets with brown paper bags. I fondly named mine "Mr. Baggins" (and then chased the children with my kid-eating puppet).

What wonderful things to put on my resume! *laughs*
