oh and maybe an update since I'm here? I don't know, are there still people who read (me) at DW? I don't even know.
My mumblesomething birthday was today. I read the new Leia kid's book - which was all right, but of course, since it's a middle grade reader book, took like thirty minutes to read. I probably could've just read it in the bookstore. But of course, Leia, so I bought and read it at home (in the zillion degrees); But it's definitely right there with the EpVII excitement. In last week's drop of all the toys and such, the only thing I wanted is the BB-8 Sphero. SO CUTE. (I do also wonder if there's not some trick in that -- like, is BB-8 gonna end up evil or somethign? I don't know, I am suspicious all is not what it seems with that droid.)
I also got some Lemon meringue cheesecake from Cheesecake Factory and could only eat about three bites, but they were delicious! I'll eat the rest tomorrow when there's no pesky dinner in the way.
Kiddo is now officially a SIXTH grader. That's a grade I remember pretty well and enjoyed, so I hope his experience is similar. He's now on Varsity Flag Football ("varsity" for the middle school, not high school varsity), and accelerated math, which is a combo I like. Hopefully that keeps up. Maybe not the football part, but some sport he likes and does well in, because soccer is not it. He is also 5'4" now, sprouting like a weed.
I'm sure there's more, but ugh, it's hot and my computer isn't helping.
Thanks for the birthday wishes! :D
