In general, how do kids handle it if their team gets beaten badly? Do you tell them it "builds character"?
I'm a single undead gal trying to make it in the big city. I have to start somewhere and they're evil here. They don't judge. They've got necro-tempered glass. No burning up. A great medical plan, and who needs dental more than us?

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Emaryn doesn't seem to mind losing, or even having lots of balls go by her when playing goalie. She's not really into the score, she just enjoys playing.
Leif has never been on the losing side of a soccer game. This hasn't helped his massive ego.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
She loves to play goalie, but she's kinda terrible at it since she just wants to stand in front of the net and kick at the ball.
Sounds like she should be the sweeper?

That would be better for her. She's at her best at forward. It's a rec league so all the players switch off between positions. But she has fun at goalie somehow, so I suppose it's all good. It's just sort of painful to watch her play the position.

Definitely Cute!
Last night as I was attempting to get to sleep I thought favorably of how nice the pillows were at the Springhill Suites that I recently visited, and it occurred to me that I could probably stand to upgrade my pillows which are sadly flat, and maybe a couple pillow cases while I'm at it.
It's not like I haven't spent a bunch of money recently, but this sounds like it would actually be a wise investment if I sleep better.

Our kids don't go back until the 9th. It feels like forever away still.

Cute? Freakish? Both?
