Whoa, I'm not suffering much anymore! Now what?!?

Ha. And the lows get shorter. After I posted that I went and made dinner for the kids. We got into a really cool conversation about artificial intelligence, the future of computers, and what that might mean for the world.

My son is really into computers, games, programming, etc. My D was really into the conversation too. So I told them we'd stay up a hair late and watch a movie. I booted up "War Games", the old Matthew Broederick movie about a kid that hacks into the Air Force's computer that runs the countries defenses. Anyway, it was a lot of fun, they both enjoyed it and were really engaged, talking to each other, asking questions, talking to the screen. They thought it was a great movie and we had a ton of fun.

Only when I logged back in did I remember the post from earlier. Thanks for letting me get that out. I'm so appreciative that I've been allowed to let go of the bad feelings and enjoy this time with my kids. Tomorrow it's time for a hike! We're packing sandwiches and Gatorade, then hitting the dusty trails!
