Sam Says
We play a lot of Lego Star Wars in our house. I recently restarted the whole game in a new save slot in a vain attempt to have my OWN game. It was quickly taken over by the children, who are having fun getting back all of the extras that come with each level. The most important extras to have, for those of you who live under rocks, are the score multipliers. There’s a 2x, 4x, 6x, all the way up to 10x. I spent about a week getting the two million five hundred thousand studs (Lego coinage) needed to buy the doubler. The quadrupler was more quickly purchased. Sam recently unlocked a new one and came shrieking in to inform me, “Mom, now we can save up for the EIGHT-dupler!”.

LOVE the tights comment! I can SO hear that in head.
HOwever, I must be one of those poor souls living under a rock. Know nothing about video games.
Sorry to have been so absent recently. Getting ready to move to Ecuador has been more consuming than I’d imagined.
Hugs,
Kathy

Oh! I’m behind, too! I haven’t been getting updates or something, because I’ve got to find out about Ecuador.
I love that you’re saving these Kid-isms. You’ve got a couple of funny kids.

They’re a hoot. Or, as Scott likes to put it, they’re worth the price of admission.
You don’t like the Thompson Twins?
Loathe, despise, etc. Didn’t like them in the eighties either. One of Caroline’s teachers played her Doctor Doctor, and I’ve taught her how to use Youtube. It’s been all downhill ever since.
Hey, that tights comment isn’t so far off…have you seen tights lately? The crazy designs make them almost pant-like 😉

I’m curious to know why Sam believes he has reason to be suspicious of you wanting to feed him to alligators in his sleep.
