Attack of the 2 year old!

So, the short curly haired girl was sick today. She was coughing and hacking all over the house. I tried to keep my distance. Seriously, I don't want to get what she has. I have enough problems as it is: the aforementioned remote control issue, getting enough sleep, etc., etc. Getting sick is the LAST thing that I need at this point.

My roommate put the girl down for a nap today even though she didn't want to go to sleep. She screamed and cried. She cried and screamed. I thought she'd never settle down! Since she wasn't my problem to begin with, I just went downstairs to escape the noise. I heard her getting out of bed a couple of times, and I heard my roommate trying to convince her to stay in bed. What a hassle! I wouldn't put up with that nonsense for five minutes! However, far be it for me to be a backseat parent!

At any rate, I finally managed to block out the noise. Later on this afternoon, I was in the kitchen to scrounge up a snack or two. My roommate's girlfriend had come home from work and she was in the kitchen with me asking my roommate about how the curly haired girl had been today while she was at work. My roommate was trying recount the events of the day, when the curly headed girl came into the kitchen with us. The next thing that happened came in a flash. It happened so fast, I didn't even have time to react. My roommate told his girlfriend that the curly haired girl had given him trouble at nap time. As he told the story, I rolled my eyes in disgust.

Well, apparently the little curly haired girl saw me roll my eyes and, she must have been offended, because the next thing I knew, she had jumped on top of me and started beating me with her fists!! I couldn't believe what was happening! My roommate told her to get off of me, but she persisted! I was pinned and couldn't move. My arms were trapped so I couldn't push her off, and since she was crushing my lungs, I couldn't scream. My mind was racing and the only thing I could think to do was to bite her. However, before I could sink my teeth into her toddler flesh, the girlfriend pushed her off of me. I quickly limped away. The little beast!!

Girlfriend 1 - Roommate 0. That little kid could set my roommates pants on fire and he wouldn't even raise his voice, but just let me try to take a nap in his chair, and I am the anti-Christ!

I need a vacation.
