Annals of Boredom I: Summer Evenings and Attack of the BubbleDroids

My little girl is just learning to blow bubbles. So we blow bubbles together and she laughs with pure joy and wonder. It is good.

But, believe it or not, too much waving the little bubblewand can hurt your rotator cuff. You'll need a break.

This is better. She blows bubbles. My son, believes they are BubbleDroids and leaps to defend the galaxy from their menace with his "lightsabre" (a nerf "Little Champs" baseball bat).

And I can sit with them in the backyard and enjoy a Father Goof-sized gin and tonic (32 ounces in my son's Yoda cup). She spills bubble stuff on her hands and shirt. No worries - the primary ingredient of bubble stuff is soap.
