Life is strange and wonderful, pt. 536

[Pale Blue Dot]

Finnfan Jr. is meeting my girlfriend (and her brood) this weekend. Tonight I was talking to my ex-wife, and she told me that she took him to the bank with her this evening, and he proceeded to tell everyone there that he was going to meet his dad's girlfriend tomorrow. He also sang a song about it at camp today.

This is either a testament to a) how great a kid my son is; b) how strange a world we live in now;, or, c) how nice a job his mom and I have done getting our son adjusted to the divorce.

Either way, it's really, really cool. :D :woohoo: :thumbsup:

1. They have songs about that now?

Damn, things have changed since I was a kid.

:hi:

2. He made it up.

Along with some song about a killer octopus.

He takes after his dad. :D

:hi:

3. Gotcha. Creative is good.

Oh, if you're a Son Volt fan (and you should be), their new CD is really good. Okemah and the Melody of Riot is the title.

Edit - oh yeah, I hope everything goes well with the brood-mixin'.

6. So your girlfriend is a killer octopus

I hope that he and 'the brood' get along well! :)

7. I'm sure they'll be fine.

She's done a really good job with her kids, too. :D

8. Most of mine are that cool.

There is that one son (can you guess which one?) who asked the oddest question today about you and your ex-wife. I'll tell you later. :crazy: :banghead:

I'm psyched and hoping my kid magnet abilities are on full power. (This is scarier than meeting parents. :D)
