He was complaining that he was bored. Nothing on TV, the online games were loading too slowly and he didn’t feel like playing his usual imagination games (where he usually role-plays scenes from Star Wars Lego or some game he’s currently into).

Usually, this annoys me in all of two seconds. But last night, I made a real effort and promised him that we’d watch TV together once I was done with work. So as soon as I did, we plopped on the bed and watched the pilot episode of Reaper. I don’t know if it’s healthy to actually let my son watch the Devil in human form who makes wisecracks every three sentences. But I figured, what the hell… :p
