thanks to the brothers

Sue's baby sister and her hubby visited last night. The whole family had gotten together on Christmas Day, but this was a chance for us all to meet again before Sue and I drive back to New Mexico on the weekend. Of course, our two nephews came along. On Christmas, the youngest was all dressed up as the Last Son of Krypton, cape included, and drafted me into being not a mean supervillain this time, but in carrying him around above my head so that he could pretend he could fly. Last night, he was dressed as the Flash, but still wore that red cape, and STILL wanted me to help him pretend he could fly even though, as I pointed out, the Flash is a runner, not a flyer. Details, details... This made for a rather raucous setup, especially when he decided that his mom was Supergirl and the Flash and Supergirl were married and he'd answer the phone (ring-ring sounds included) to respond to emergencies and that's when I had to pretend I was the collapsing San Francisco Bay Bridge.

I eventually thought I'd better find a way to quiet things down, for the sake of the eardrums of the grownups. Then I remembered that, right next to me under the Tree, was the DVD set I had been given of Bugs Bunny cartoons.

That worked, shocking as that may sound.

Of course, I thought it best to keep the kids company.

Bugs Bunny, still among the best.

Indeed. That DVD set actually isn't just Bugs. He's on one disk. Another one is all about Daffy, and the remaining two about the rest of the gang. Woohoo!

It sounds like a lot of fun.
