Kael's Adventures

Crazy Good Memory

So, last night when I got to work, I managed to lock my keys in the car (i was more concerned with making sure my iPod wasn’t still playing when I was taking it out).. Janice and Kael were nice enough to come bring me the spare key, and let me into my car.

While they were there, Sarah came down to see Kael… Kael has met Sarah once.. ever.. and it was for like 2 minutes.. I mention this fact, because it is an important detail..

Sarah went inside to go take her dinner break.. and Kael points at the door after she went inside and says “Sarah just went in for a minute, Sarah will be right back out”

We didn’t say her name the entire time she was out there… he just remembered her name from the one time he was introduced to her months ago…

We are in so much trouble as he gets older if he’s already remembering stuff this good

Missed Job Opportunity

Apparently, I live in the wrong state.. which is really a shame, because I like this state, and really, can’t imagine living anywhere else..

But first.. I miss the opportunity to work for Dreamhost, since I don’t even know where Brea California is (although..after that LA power outage, I know that Brea is close enough to LA to have been affected by it).

And now, it looks like I’ll miss an opportunity to work for Pixar. I wonder if either one of them would let me telecommute to do my job?

Toddler Wisdom 7

“Don’t lightsaber daddy!”

Obviously, this advice is worthless if you’re a Skywalker..but.. for the rest of us.. it’s pretty good advice…

And on a related note, if you have a smoke/carbon monoxide detector in the house, that can be tested via infrared (like a normal TV remote control), don’t let your toddler chase you around the house with a lightsaber, that sends out infrared beams to let the other toy in the set (a little Yoda that teaches you how to use your lightsaber) how the lightsaber is positioned!
