...and moved away to tropical wilderness.

If you can't afford the air fare, can't hop on a freighter, or don't have a sailboat, well then, they visit you, you don't visit them.

I'm planning to be an eccentric artist too.

Never stop challenging your children... biological or otherwise.

one of whom (being held by dad) cried that he "wanted to be a straphanger!"
and the other, who was upset s/he didn't get to pay the fare and wouldn't stop crying. (A smart (or desperate) person finally gave them a coin to put in the box. Peace & quiet. Yay!)

The joys of parenting! It brings back memories.

There are rewards, too. I am glad I have kids.

when my youngest was a kindergartner, she was very upset that her favorite blue socks were in the wash.

She was the afternoon session of kindergarten. When she came down for lunch, just 30 minutes before we'd have to leave for the bus stop, I noticed she had colored both feet, and a few inches above her ankles with blue magic marker.

There was no way I was going to be able to have her fed, and scrub both feet in time, so she went to school that day with blue feet.

of behavior in the bud at a very early age. That dark, damp bug infested closet in the soundproof basement came in very handy. Oh and don't bother contacting the CPS on me, the room was destroyed many years ago after the training was complete. Better include this just in case the NSA is lurking
