Guitar Heroics

The game is addictive, to say the least, but also hella fun. We have all the versions, and right now I am playing through the original on Medium. In fact, just beat it. Didn't think I could get through Bark at the Moon, but I did. Still haven't managed Crossroads - just too many fret changes too darn fast.

One side effect is the strangeness of both daughters in the car humming Iron Man - neither had ever heard it but the oldest loves to play it on GH.

Still tired from yesterday's field trip to the hockey game. Minor league team, but fun. Kids yelled at everything nonstop for the whole game. At least I briefed them all on different things so they could appreciate the grace of line changes, etc. The home team lost, but the kids still yelled, sang along with the musical offerings, banged their inflatable cheer sticks together. Just the pressure of herding 100+ sixth graders, even with three other adults, nearly broke me.

Looking like both daughters are having sleepovers this Friday. Youngest with the two girls we took to the pool over the weekend (one her oldest bestest friend, the other a new best friend to both) and oldest with her good friend. Which makes for some fancy logistics of transportation - since the wife is working until 6pm, and school lets out for both at 3pm. One school is near the house, the other is 20 minutes away. And the car won't hold all the girls at once. It will all work out, though.
