Also, I find this picture really eerie: [link] I have to admit, I know it's 100% safe, but it still felt disconcerting to watch the sharks swim by my kid.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
it still felt disconcerting to watch the sharks swim by my kid.
He loved it, though, huh?

The more I learn, the more I realize how little I know.
Just got back from my uncle's neighborhood block party, where we set up our telescopes and showed everyone Jupiter and the major moons at 75x. It's still such a kick to hear young and old alike say "Oh, wow!" when they look through the eyepiece.

Kinda, ita, yeah. We realized that for an extra $20 each we could get a year membership to the aquarium. We have one for the San Diego Zoo (which we've used quite a bit -- like 6 + times this year if you include the wild animal park). But the aquarium is less than an hour away and he lasts as long there as at the zoo. I wish they had reciprocity with the LA Zoo, but it's good enough for what we got.
I'm kinda excited at the thought of having a membership. I had one when they first opened, but it's more fun now. As many things are with a kid, actually (and there's an equal number of unfun things).

That's cool!

“Not dead yet!”
I should be really disturbed by the fact that I still know all the lyrics to the theme for "The Nanny," right?
Yeah.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."
Has everybody seen the cinematic animated opening to Rock Band Beatles and the various dreamscapes?
Pretty freaking cool. And the gameplay puts you right inside the Beatles which is a fun place to be.

Go Allyson! You can do it!
(I'm really selfish--I'm encouraging because I wanna read it! And recommend it at the bookstore! I had so much fun recommending Vampire People.)
