In Reply to: This is so funny to the crate jumping Alpha Dancer???... n/m posted by Ally's Mom on April 07, 2001 at 02:11:13:

me jumping on crates, waving my arms, making hissing noises + bobbing my fool head! really, imagine what poor iZ was thinking at that point! "OMG, humommy has finally lost her last remaining marble + gone insane ... i've heard about this from other igs ... it's best to just humor her + quietly back awaaaaaaaay from the crazy lady .... "

now if xta had written + was concerned or upset and/or if Slee was in distress ~ THAT would have been totally different +it would NOT have been funny in the slightest!
xta is fine, Slee is fine and really, come on, it's hilarious that we put our ig's vents at eye level + check them out! i KNOW it's a ridiculous position to be in cuz i do it on a nightly basis when iZ jumps from my shoulder to his supper shelf! he knows i'm lookin' at his vent + i've snagged many a little plug from him right as the poor boy is trying to chomp his salad ~ + i KNOW that "WHAT do you think you're doin' back there!?!?" LOOK they give you!!!

being responsible for another life, animal or small child is a responsibility beyond descriptive words ~ it IS the most important thing you can do in this life, period ... YOU ARE responsible for another being's health + happiness!
when it comes to parenting, whether it's a humon or an ig, you GOTTA have a sense of humor or you'll go insane ... generally, the more warped the sense of humor, the better! it's part of taking it all in stride is all ... it's part of staying sane enough to do it all again the next day ...

things may not be funny while you're going thru them, but once you've made it thru the crisis (whether it's a stuck plug or a toddler who just ... fill in the blank...), you live thru it, you start telling the story, and you realize how very ludicrous the whole thing sounds!

i laugh because i've been there, i laugh because i KNOW how worried we get, i laugh because i KNOW how fragile health + life really are ...

but i am NEVER laughing at the seriousness of the health + happiness of our igs and i NEVER take the ig-parents worries lightly cuz i KNOW that awful feeling in your gut when something is just 'not right' with our iggies ...

and if you don't think the Alpha Dance is funny, ludicrous, + just slightly insane, then i'm gonna have to worry about you ...

*grin*
Bon.
