Anyway, attended a kiddie fundraiser for my son's Ukranian nursery school. It was a big event, partly organized by my wife. Dozens of toddlers and hundreds of adults, with the school putting on a musical playlet called "The Cat's wedding".

Canucks take note - it had Luba Goy of Air Farce fame as the MC, dressed in a cat outfit and cracking jokes in Ukrainian. Also singing & acting in the play.

Anyway it was an impressively large and elaborate event.

5 1/2 years old.
She's not really the active type of girl, so it may be a little later than usual.
The pure joy and surprise on her face was a sight to behold  ^_^

Meh, I have no idea what age is appropriate for what any more - when Carl was a newborn I used to get upset if he missed a "milestone" or elated if he exceeded it, but now I sort of go with the flow.

With one exception - I was elated when he was toilet trained, because that was a big relief.  :D

I have decided to get it over and rush through that 500th post, then spam like a madman to get beyond the taint.

maybe I will even post in this thread today.
I have come to believe that the whole world is an enigma, a harmless enigma that is made terrible by our own mad attempt to interpret it as though it had an underlying truth.

Then I will demand a temporary title - maybe "Unofficial Languish Reporter" until I pass post 1000...

Fuck you.  I am going to ride my bike down the center of the lane when I get it back from the shop just to spite you.
