The Geeky Kids ride again!
The Geeky Kids: Little Man, Jr. Mad Scientist, and the Otaku Princess
I've returned from the long trip with stories, adventures, and three of my children. I'm exhausted. It's so exciting to have them here, and I will reprise last year's special summer blogs where we do geeky stuff and I write about it for other families with geeky kids to get ideas from. In the mean time, on this first day, the Otaku Princess had to get a library card, and I discovered to my amusement that the Jr Mad Scientist had already maxed her card out (they are allowed 15 titles) which is why they needed me to take them back to the library this afternoon and vouch for the geeky kids' reliability with checking materials out.

So what are geeky teens reading this summer? Well, the three of them all raided the manga section of the library heavily, for DC Comics graphic novels, Black Butler, and the Justice League (this is part of DC I think...). I'll see if I can coax reviews out of them, but at the rate they are reading I don't think I can keep up.

The Little Man has been so excited he has been trying to do All The Things and to do them All Now. I've been trying to keep up, redirect, and point out that you can't ask me to set up computers, then stop me half through to find the charger for the RPi2, and then...
So when you hand the OP a camera, you get shots like this, where she's virtually crushing the Little Man's head...
We were going to try Pokemon Go together, but I don't know if it will go on my phone. We've deleted a lot of apps, we'll give it a go. After a nap, and dinner, I think!
I have so much I could write, but I'm not going to now. This is just a post to say we're alive, it's Summer Vacation, and we'll be back.
One of the girls will inevitably take a photo of me, driving, when they are given access to the big camera.
