I'm the 'Torturizer'

or so says my daughter. Here's what happened:

Friday as you know, I was on crack and had volunteered to a short stint in Hellando also known as Orlando. We were going to Universal Studios Friday afternoon/evening and then Disney Saturday morning (we have year passes which is proof I've been on crack more than once).

In the morning, she had her playdate- the kid would NOT shut up but whatever, it was over and just in time because my head was about to pop. I'm driving and J is whining about this, whining about that, just pissing me off and apparently the crack was wearing off. When I finally snapped and responded to one of her whiny comments: 'well it won't matter anymore since I turned around a while back and we'll be home in 20 minutes'. Then it was Niagara Falls. "Mommy I'm sorry, I'm sorry for what I did this morning".

Me: Oh really? Well tell me what you did
JR: well I didn't follow your rules and took a lollipop to my room (MAJOR offense in my household because I'm anal retentive that way)
Me: a-ha...what else did you do? I know you did something else
JR: (bawling) Oh mom, I'm so sorry, but I hid some dirty clothes under the bed! I'm SO SO SORRY!!
Me: yup- and let me know what that got you now
JR: OH MOM I PINKY swear I will NEVER do that again! PROMISE!!! PLEASE FORGIVE ME! (and please picture major drama here, worthy of an oscar and me looking away because I just can't keep a straight face)

When suddenly we pass a sign that says: "Universal Studios 2 miles"

The tears stopped faster than you could say 'gotcha'. She turns to me and says 'HEY! You've been TRICKING ME!' We're here! We're here!!' and then she starts laughing and holding my hand and of course all the love is back.

A few minutes later, she says to me:

"Mom that wasn't very nice...I understand I was being bratty, but you went on with the trickery for too long. Next time please don't go on for so long, my feelings were hurt. You're a torturizer."

Yup that I am! :)

Part 2 of our 'adventure' coming up soon- I'm still trying to get over it.
