Stuff
I have been a bad blogger lately. I have stuff to write, I’m just too lazy to go to the basement to use the computer to actually do it. Here are some tidbits to keep you all interested:
1. Oldest started therapy the other week. I really think it’s helping.
2. Middle is having a hard time adjusting to summer. I think 99 percent of his problem is that in school he could cry, storm off, and generally be a jerk and get his way. Unfortunately for him, Mama doesn’t play that game.
3. Youngest is fine. I’m sitting at his last baseball game of the season.
4. We leave for Maine tomorrow morning. My brother is getting married there next week. We are staying in a mansion he rented. I’ll post bragging pictures.
5. I’m the only member of my family invited to the wedding. This warrants a longer post, but suffice it to say this is because my mother is a crazy person. -

SWING KIDS [1993]
The story of a close-knit group of young kids in Nazi Germany who listen to banned swing music from the US. Soon dancing and fun leads to more difficult choices as the Nazis begin tightening the grip on Germany. Each member of the group is forced to face some tough choices about right, wrong, and survival. [From imdb.com]
This movie is so great, watching a younger Christian Bale is always fascinating.
My 14 year old self’s love for this movie was INCOMPARABLE.

THANK YOU!
How many of us have been saying this for years? I’m gonna say… probably all of us.
I even wrote a similar article for Huffington Post a while ago, in which I screamed from Mt. Huffington that the bumbling dad character is unrealistic. (Actually, my arguement was moms are bumbling, too, but you know what I mean.) Of course, my piece was just a whiny rant.
This Daily Beast article by Soraya Roberts, however, uses actual Census data and things like facts to make the point that, when it comes to depicting fathers, pop culture is what’s bumbling.
