Overheard

We had a movie night tonight.  Eden wanted to watch the most recent version of Cinderella and Z wanted to watch The Empire Strikes Back.  We put the names in a bowl and Nathan drew one out -- Cinderella!  Z wasn't very happy about it, but was a good sport overall and watched the movie with Eden and me.  At one point the prince's father is dying, and the prince is by his side.  As they have a heartfelt and loving last conversation Z says, "Great.  We should have watched The Empire Strikes Back because now I'm crying.  Thanks a lot, movie!"

As Z and Eden were getting ready for bed tonight Z was talking about the Hulk.
Eden:  Z, you should think about real life!
Z:  Real life is boring.
