stuff

Went to Cosmic Adventures with the kids yesterday. That place upsets me so much - it's such a wonderful concept, an indoor playground, where kids can climb, slide, run, etc - but, my god, it's so hideously expensive. $19 just to get in the door. And then they have all these horrendously over-priced arcade games and horrendously overpriced junk food. The whole time we were there, I had to keep saying No to the boys - no games, we don't have enough $ for that, no slushies, no pizza, no no no... We ended up spending at $30 on the whole experience, and that was only entry, socks for me (I forgot to bring my own pair) and a small snack consisting of 3 bagels. Just imagining how much I could have spent makes me ill. I could easily see spending at least $60 in that place.

Also went to our dance lesson in the evening. Those dance instructors are just way, way, way too perky. But it's fun, and we do seem to be learning something, at least. And it's a nice couple-thing to do.

And now, because I am a lemming:
