So I've been considering a DS for Emeline but focusing on the educational games instead of the gamey-games. I know that they have been a source of frustration and badness for others here, but are there benefits to them?
Natter 66: Get Your Kicks.
Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, pandas, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
One post since I went to sleep last night? It is like I don't know y'all.
We were waiting for you to come back.
Suzi! I will been in Denver July 11-13.
See, I was waiting for you.
Also, gronk. Baby girl had a 103 fever yesterday. (She's fine, bouncing back admirably. It will take me longer to get over the lack of sleep.)
Awwwww. Now I feel am smoooshy. (eta - so smooshy, I can't even type out "all smooshy" without messing it up. And now smooshy has no meaning any more)
Children do have that crazy ability to bounce back while we are left in the dust behind them. No fair. But I'm glad she is feeling better.
Yay for Sparky coming to Denver! Let me know when you have some time and we can get together. My profile addy is good.
World Cup: France -- WTF?
I've heard good things about The Wire, but all I've ever heard is that it's brilliant, I don't even know the premise. Hah. So, here's your chance, evangelize at me! I watch way too much TV, I'm always in search of something new =)
Seriously, Fred, that needs to be said out loud.
Aims, they are a blessing on long car trips. There are learning games and they do show kids how to follow directions and learn from their mistakes. We set limits on where and how long they can play them but I think they are great. Owen and Olivia chat back and forth on theirs--Owen continues to learn to write and improve his sentence structure. Not to mention practice reading skills.
I didn't expect very much from France after all the controversy this week, but really.
At least it's SA, who I can be happy about winning.
