He was excited to wear a hat, though he later traded for a red one.
Special OJ for a special night.
Mmm. Gyoza and Martinellis.
We were all amazed that Dad wore the hat without complaint.
Genius sister is a genius.
She might not look it, but I bet Amelia was secretly thrilled to have her own paper hat.
Earlier that week, Sam discovered a Rubik's cube in a closet. I showed him how to play with it, and he wanted to solve it right then and there. I had to tell him that I had no idea how to get all the sides the right colors. He was disappointed, and started to lose interest. But because it was six thirty in the morning and I didn't want him to go wake anyone else up, I told him we could try to find out how on the computer.
So we did. We used the official solving guide and we solved the crap out of that Rubik's cube. Which has been a lifelong dream of mine. Thanks to my son, I finally sat down and did it.
I made a New Year's resolution this year. Two, actually. I'm going to query another novel in the hopes of finding an agent, and I'm going to learn how to solve a Rubik's cube FROM MEMORY.

That looks like so much fun! Glad you enjoyed it. And major respect for solving the Rubik's cube. I guess it makes sense that you could find guides online now. Aren't there guides for everything? Good thinking!
