Memories, memories.

Holy shit, I had forgotten shufflepuck. My neighbors had that game, and I remember just loving it. They had another one where you were a spaceship collecting crystals and shooting things, but I can't remember it's name...

Speaking of which. Does anyone want to adopt me? I don't need much. Just wifi. Two years and I'm out of your hair.

Please? Confused

It'll cost you $600 a month. I have a room for rent in TN. If you need to put a title on it, yeah, I'll adopt you. Tongue

When Your Kids Make You Feel Old

I felt slightly older this week. My 10yo daughter has now decided that I'm not permitted to wash her hair (or see her naked more precisely). It's one of those landmarks that will never be reversed and makes me feel a little bit sad.

On the flip side, it was a pain in the arse job that took me twice as long as it did to shower and wash my own hair so on balance I'm better off out of it. I'll just put the extra time into playing Mariokart 2 player with her instead.
