pick one

My child has turned into the exorcist baby. I take away the marker she's using to redecorate her dress, or the knife she's gently poking into her eye, she arches her back and shrieks, or bends forward and starts whacking her head into the floor or wall, whichever is closer.
I do what they say, leave her alone and don't buy into it. But it's not getting any better - and it has prompted this ideological point-
Either I am a crappy mother, or she is psychotic.
That's the only conclusion I can come to. The "She's only 1!" argument just makes me feel worse. Because I commited to this family thing on the principle that I'd have more than one. And that means I'm going to have to have this little tantum-in-a-toddler experience again. And heaven knows, I don't even want this experience again TOMORROW.
SO, either my cute-as-a-button babe is a creepy alien, or I'm just horrifically bad at this job. Just guess which one I'm leaning towards.
I don't do sports, and I try not to get too tangled up in elections because I... well, I'm not going to say I'm a "bad sport" - but I WILL say I take people beating me or my causes as personal attacks. I may or may not have punched my husband in the gut after he handily beat me at DDR this past New Year's Eve.
But grr-freaking-RRRR. I'm so scared about some of the people running for the presidential race, that I got too into it.
If this guy gets the Republican nod, I'm afraid Americans will be stupid enough to elect him. And as Allah is my witness, I'm going Canadian. I can fake the accent! I'm all aboot it!!
If I wasn't so blasted sleepy, I'd post pictures of my hair. I'm doing a marvelous job of not looking as momish as I thought I might.
Just rest happy, knowing I am not as creepy looking as I sound:)
SUPERCRACK out!
