First Cosmic Adventure - Success!
Okay..so..I know this sounds a little..hmm..kinky. The title at least, but I assure (console?) you readers out there that there was nothing untoward about my 'Cosmic Adventure'.
For those of you that do not live in the Ottawa area Cosmic Adventures (www.cosmicadventures.ca) is a huge playground. Tubes, tunnels, ball pits, cafeteria, etc.
I was very fortunate to have a Veteran Cosmopolitan, Maven, along with me (See..she is really a SAHM, a very pregnant one, but she can be cultured too! ...and she gets me great coffee..so..)
"Maven, sign me up for a 'I put out for lattes' t-shirt"
My son, all 3 1/2 yr, darting madness of him, had a blast. ...I think... I didn't really actually see him much, and I don't think he much cared. He just started going with gusto once he hit the floor. He was so eager to start he was trying to find out how the gates worked to get in. After about 2 1/2 hours of play, the boy decided he had enough and Maven kindly fetched him for me, which is no small feat for a woman that far along in pregnancy. I suppose it made sense though, since I had her 3 yr old just fascinated with going around the games room and playing all the games he could.
My son...not so much into the games. He liked the lights and sounds, and when we tried to get him to play one where you whack the heads of alligators (something that any young boy is -perfect- for), he just watched amusedly while Maven and I went a whacking away at these gator heads.
Thankfully, it meant a good nap for the both of us. He was even so tired that he went to bed at a reasonable time tonight. Which gave me time to read my book (yay!)
So..Chapter 33 read! Progress! (..and about 300 more pages to go)

Haha... Good ol Big G and the alligators. I forgot about how foolish we looked trying to encourage him into the game and cheering for oursevles wildly when we won a bunch of tickets and the bonus round.
I'm glad I'm not the only loser in Ottawa. I have someone to share the title with! *mwah*
