Gratuitous Musickal Posting (TM)

We're off in a bit for the Seven Year Old's premier piano recital. She'll be doing a two-fingered rendition of the 2nd movement of Haydn's "Surprise" Symphony.

I found out yesterday that there are going to be fifty, count 'em 5-0, kiddies performing at this shinding today. Now, let me whip out my checklist of items to bring:

Flask? Check

No-Doz? Check

Sharp scissors for piercing eardrums? Check

Elephant-sized tranquilizer dosage for subduing the Five Year Old? Check

Police baton for doing same re the Nine Year Old? Check

Artificial Smile for wearing in the zijillion pics the Missus will insist on taking? Whoops....looks like the battery's almost run down on that one. Oh, well.

Yeah, I think I'm good to go.......

LOL! You are a braver man than I, Rob-o.

One of the nice things about being a monk is no family events like that.

I'm sure I would have died of fart-hailure at the unmitigated horror of potty training anyway.

*shudder*

Hey, at least I know I'm not cut out for dad-hood.
