omnis, sweetie, the worry is unnecessary. Sure, I have a lot on my plate. So what?
I think their research, IIRC (I didn't really listen to that part. Just wanted to fill the questionnaire and go away (my professors now give 5 minutes from every class for them to beg us to fill the questionnaires)), is something about child psychology. Not sure how it relate to us, but the questionnaire was about depression and treatment - which means that's NOT what they were actually checking, of course.
Anyhow, I don't feel depressed. Really. Just wish there were 35 hours per day. And a country with saner leadership. Or just a leadership.
Breaking in to say: I have proof that I have completely dorkified my child.
To wit:

If by "dorkified" you mean "raised her well", I'd agree.
Well, yes, the two terms are synonymous.
In my mind, at least.
Go, team dork child! I am hoping to be able to dorkify the boy this summer with books, but DH totally has the robot and computer dork camp covered.
Em should come down and hang...god, actually, that would be tons of fun...
There should totally be Buffista kid summer camp.
It's one of those weeks where my Girl has the social life and I get to sit at home in my PJs watching 'Britain's Got Talent' and drinking wine and tea. I think perhaps this is a sign I should be trying harder at life, but I don't really care.
I'm sure you don't want punctuation, Shir, but there's much empathy from here.
Miracleman, that's one awesome kid.
In related thoughts, is two-and-a-half too young to indoctrinate my sister's child in the enlightened ways of science fiction? I'm impatient. We can start out light. Maybe with Button Moon.

I whispered in the ear of my then-5-days-old cousin about Dr. Who, and told her that there are many starts and stellar systems out there to visit. A girl can dream.
And thank you for the empathy.

Nope. And there are tons of geeky kid t-shirts out there...
Never too young! There are robots and dinosaur toys for 2 year-olds. And you can make them fight!
