An auspicious beginning
Aug. 21st, 2025 09:14 amSo far today, I was woken up at 4am because the children had been playing with an old alarm clock yesterday (I got back over though).
And Sophia hurt her wrist falling off of a swing yesterday and it still hurts this morning so we're off to the Sick Kids at 10am for her to get checked out.
Happy birthday to me!
Edit: No break. Possibly minor sprain. Just needs to take it easy and stay off the monkey bars for a few days.

Confused by Disney ineptitude
Jun. 14th, 2025 12:03 pmTwo weeks after seeing the CGI Lilo and Stitch at the cinema I'm watching the original with the kids. And it's so much better. The direction, the writing, the acting are all just much higher quality.
The remake felt much clumsier. And I don't really understand why.
Edit: Just realised that they entirely cut the Ugly Duckling part from the remake. Why would you do that? It's key to Stitch's arc!
And all of the bits where Lilo how to be like Elvis.
In fact, nearly all of the bits where Lilo talked to Stitch and built a relationship with him.
