20 Things You Can Do When Things Don't Go Your Way
This, according to Pearl...
- get upset
- stomp around
- try to yell
- get really intolerable
- sing the ABC song
- say really mean stuff
- have a fight with hyenas (tell a story)
- come up with lots of good ideas
- turn off the lights in my room
- distract myself by playing
- do yoga
- try to go to the zoo and visit a tiger or a lion
- follow a tiger's footprints
- play rock-n-roll music really loud
- build a pretend frog robot
- sneak around in spider webs
- count the money from 2 to 80 in my piggy bank
- catch stars
- ride my bike
- race

She really said intolerable? Jeez, when I get a kid will you and Marcia help me raise it? Seriously, you guys are my idols.

Apparently my fetus digs #14. He goes kick crazy when I play Led Zepplin.

Tell Pearl thanks, I needed that. And, I'm using at least five of them tonight.

The pretend frog robot may be something I need to try!

If only my clients had Pearl's insight I'd be out of a job! You know, I think she could pass an anger management class just with that list! :)
