today i....

spent far far far too much time waiting for dinosaurs to fricking walk already. the boy next to us used 'her' instead of 'she' and 'him' instead of 'he' and i had to bite my tongue to not correct him. because if anyone corrected Danny for saying 'wizard' instead of 'lizard', i would surely go Mama T Rex on them :)

also of note at 'walking with dinosaurs' (as well as thousands of little boys with matching haircuts, dino teeshirts and speech impediments) our tickets were $80 and half of that was taxes and fees :| a plastic 'dollar tree' dinosaur was twenty dollars and EVERY KID seemed to have one but Danny :( i felt very had by the whole thing.... the show was designed so only approximately 5% of the audience got to see it fully and everyone on the sides just had to imagine what it might look like if they had those magical seats. oh and those 5% of seats weren't even occupied :| and the really nice staff at the Anaheim Pond wouldn't allow anyone to move into them because ??? i am still trying to think why they would leave the best seats empty and have the really steep nosebleed seats on the sides full of kids :| the paleontologist's voice was all echo-y and barely audible, what i could hear was kind of boring AND he looked like Mel Gibson... it could NOT get any worse for me :|

it was clearly a miss for me but Danny seemed to love it, despite the fact that the fight scenes and Oviraptor eating Brachiosaurus' babies were censored (eye roll). Danny yelled "whoa!!!!!" every time a new dinosaur appeared and was able to name each one (in a much more animated, audible voice than that paleontologist :) anyway we didn't buy the $20 plastic dinosaur, we did sneak into those forbidden 5% seats and despite the show being the most boring thing since 'Cats' on Broadway, he loved it and that's all that really matters :)




second day of kindy and still loving it :)
