Precious Moments
So there I was, standing over a grill in flambe, my spare ribs in death throes from licking flames due to gross inattention. I had a glass of water in my hand, and was dipping three fingers into the water and slinging it onto the flames to squelch the fire. And for some bizarre reason every time I did it I would yell "The power of Christ compels you!!!"
Then I turned around and saw my 11-year-old looking at me like, ah, life could be pretty sweet in an orphanage.
Thankfully they are bringing back Cabbage Patch Kids this year. I may have an opportunity to shore up some father-daughter issues after all.
LOL. Just because you're her primary source of entertainment doesn't mean she doesn't love you.
It does in fact mean that she does.
(I didn't realize that Cabbage Patch Kids ever left the market. They've always been available in Cleveland...)

That explains a few things.

Ah, I miss those shows, the new ones just aren't as much fun.

She's had to have had it rough in the velocihovel. ;) When she looks back, that's when she's gonna wonder. She'll probably file it under things that make you go Hmmmm.
