I've been observing...

I've been observing some things over the last year. Really since I left Target and really have had the time to observe. Think. Breath.
Let it Unfold.
First of all, I travel a lot. I see a lot of things on planes. Granted it's from first class (oh shut-up. Do you know how many fucking miles i have to fly to be able to sit in first class)..anyway...I watched this woman once, and she had her three year old in his own seat (now that's entitled), and he had his head on her lap, sleeping. It was very tender and touching and sweet until i noticed little Johnny or Jimmy or Suede was drooling all over his mother's very expensive silk skirt. Thank god she didn't notice while I was watching because I'm sure I would have caught her eye , and mouthed, 'I know..I saw the whole thing happening' and then she would have flipped me off because I didn't warn her that Kingston was drooling all over her thousand dollar skirt, and it would have been my fault. It usually is. At least I always seem to find it necessary to take responsibility.
Then I thought: really observed: why hasn't anyone invented drool pads. You know they could be human versions of the canine pee pee pads, smaller and cuter with adorable little kid kind of drawings on them, or a more kid friendly version of a maxipad (a little wider) with the same adorable drawings on them. Your kid gets tired, you whip one out, put on that expensive pair of slacks, push his or her head into it and let him or her drool away...
