I’ve been banished from the living room. The kid is having a sleep-over for Neville’s birthday. (From Harry Potter fame.) The kids are glued in front of the TV watching anime — Fruits Basket and something else. I loaded the coffee table with munchies and sodas and vacated the room.

I figured I’d post this doddle tonight instead of tomorrow morning.

Now I’m going to take these old, cranky bones of mine off to bed and a good book.
