Today was my youngest’s birthday. I asked him what he wanted to do and eat and there were only a few requests:
1. Broccoli
2. Settlers of Catan
3. Cake with vanilla frosting and strawberries
I was taken back by a 5-year-old wanting broccoli for his birthday, especially because I’ve never seen it as a food he especially went for, but the broccoli was a big hit. He ate that and not much else. He only ate a little of the cake.
I forgot about Catan until 8 pm so I let him stay up to play. the game took until 10:30! Yikes. Tomorrow may be a nightmare.

What I really wanted to do was write fic. I’m working on a slice of life fic right now where Atlantis is still in a holding pattern on Earth and John is bored. He recruits several of the people who have been there since the beginning to help him break out Todd so they all can have a night in the town complete with bowling and Karaoke. They have to time it to Halloween so Todd doesn’t draw any attention. It’s a completely weird fic.
