Accidental Hipster O.o

So HB pointed out the other that I am a Hipster :P
He started laughing at me because I was immediately indignant.
Now that I sit down a think about I'm like "Holy Shit he's right! Dammit!"

It was a total accident!
What's more annoying is every time I turn around there is yet another thing making me a hipster!
I hate labels so I will never call myself a hipster but OMG.

I have no idea if anyone else has called me a Hipster and frankly I don't care.

HB says he's relieved that I am only really a Hipster about music and not much else.
I could be a Hipster about going to thrift stores but I originally did that because I was raised poor lol
Now I shop there because I don't see the point in buying new when I stay home all day.

Here are the reasons  we figured out that I am a Hipster :)

1. I have on more then one occasion uttered the phrase "I loved this band before anyone knew about them" >.<

2. I am anti-name brand everything.

3. I have also said "I did that before..." about shaving part of my head, dying just my bangs, piercing my nose, gauging my ears.

4. Our daughter has a name that no one has heard for a girl before and an        obscure middle name. I found both lol

5. I am all about buying local and LOVE our Farmers Market. (pity its done for the year)

6. I adore wearing off the wall T-shirts
  a) I also enjoy dressing Kai uniquely too

7. I don't drive at all. I walk and really want a bike

8. I used to enjoy wearing faux horn rims even though I have perfect eye sight

9. I refuse to define myself except for being a Mom. Apparently from my reading that makes me a Hipster

10. I love watching BBC programs and Indie movies.


Oh well I am happy with who I am. I don't care what label I fall under. The only one that matters to me is Mom.

You can't even read!

Oh my freaking god!

The last week Kai has been acting like 4 going on 14!!
I'm ready to pull my hair out O.o

She is acting like a freaking know-it-all.
She argues with me about everything!
How words are spelled, what they mean, where I'm going, what we're eating... EVERYTHING!
She even argues with me on what words are even after I help her spell it!

On top of that malarkey she has started blatantly ignoring me and trying to order me around!
She has also started trying to do it to my Dad and HB though not nearly as often as me.

One of my friends that has a daughter 2 years older than Kai said that's how the her daughter acts as well.
So apparently the mother daughter relationship dynamic is a double edged blade.
One side you are incredibly close (which is great) and the other side is the daughter is going to ignore and annoy the shit out of you at times.

According to my parents I acted the exact same way when I was 4 so I am paying for my raisin' right now :P

Little Girls aren't Human. Who Knew!

So early this afternoon Kai and I went to my Dad's to give HB some peace to take a nap.
Whenever he tries this while we are home Kai wakes him up quite routinely to "ask" him something.
He can't yell at her because the majority of the time she wants a Hug, Kiss, Snuggle (Eskimo kiss).

She was in the living room coloring while my Dad and I figured out what we wanted to do to kill time.
All of a sudden Kai comes running into the kitchen with her crayon box and says "I need capped crayons!"
My Dad looked at her and said "What?"
Me "What's wrong with the crayons you have?"
Kai "They're for HUMANS!"
Us O.o
Me "You are a Human"
Kai "No I'm not!"
Me O.O "You're not? Then what are you?"

Kai "I'm a little Girl!"

According to HB when I was retelling the conversations that apparently clears a lot of things up LOL

He firmly believes that little girls are tiny balls of energy that mark their territory with glitter.
Every time he picks Kai up he ends up with glitter in his beard or somewhere on him
