my two kidlings are growing up, and the leon won't let me spawn another in order to keep a wee one handy. so, big preparations are on hand for the big send off. new underpants, naturally. who wants to start a new school year (or a new classroom at "work") in last season's undies. so, we have some scooby do, and spiderman in the hizzouse. *pumps hands in air* shout out to grandma annie (even if, after 16 years, you don't know how to spell my name. sara/sarahs get a bit testy about that h).
the little 'un? well, he'll be about 2.6 seconds from me, as always. i'm feeling pretty chill about his move up the daycare foodchain. it's the one starting school that's making me nervous. i have plans to combat that, though. foolproof plans.
i have selected an outfit to impress. not his teacher, mind you, but those little punks that he'll be attending school with for the next 11-odd years. as leon says, he'll have his teacher for one year...but those kids will be with him for a lot longer. back in my day? we really dressed-to-the-nines for the first day. it's notsomuch the custom 'round these parts. thus? batman shoes. socks. khaki pants. scooby do. and the coolest batman shirt you'll ever see. it is a black and shiny and practically screams "i am the coolest kid in the school!!!!!!!!!"
he's going to need all the help that he can get, my chubby little, vegetarian, bi-racial son. poor dear. at least they'll have a variety of targets. of course, the shirt? will negate all of this.
i'm also trying to pimp out his lunches. this woman had a blog? called vegan lunchbox? and it had the most amazing food. how crazy is this...hundreds of people checked her blog every day to see what she packed her son for lunch. yup. i'm one of those looneys. dang, yo! i couldn't help myself.
i'm breaking out the motorcycle bug superhero bentos and packing them up right. the lunch? also a secret weapon. cool clothes+cool lunch=cool kid. no lie.
now i'm off to watch history detectives on the pbs. it is rockin' my world. whoooooeeeee baybeeee!

you're so cute.
one year i wore leather pants on my first day of school because i am a rockstar.
the other kids already thought i was weird, so it seemed like a good idea. nothing to lose, you know?
