Vacation

by Patrick LeClerc
Memoir. 1 minute. No warnings.

The past few weeks have been madness with the kiddo on break from school, and a trip to observe crustaceans and invertebrates crawling through the mud. But enough about Readercon. We also explored ome tidal mud flats and went on a whale watch.

I have come to the conclusion that at my age, i can no longer wear out my son.

So I'll just leave you with the question: Just how unseemly is it to take joy in the fact that my six year old was singing "Blister in the Sun" by the Violent Femmes while I was applying his sunscreen?
