This Blog has always mostly been about gaming, some movies here and there, and other things like  TV shows. You know, the fun things to talk about. I even hit some political topics and generalities here and there. The blog subtitle is “Life and Interwebs” but mostly it has been about Interwebs. It works for me. Due to the fact that I am entering the dry season for gaming (summer summer summer time!) there will probably be a lot more dashes of “life” posts. My most exciting game right now is TSW and I am so far behind in it and learning the ropes there that I don’t have any interesting insights to share. I will be playing on the EQ Progression Server as soon as they figure out their stuff, and I’m due back in WildStar at some price point change. Just a heads up to expect more life posts. They were always supposed to be on equal footing here.
In the gaming universe, where adaptability is key, and the community thrives on the secure knowledge of shared adventures and explorations, the steadfast presence of fire watch security in Fort Pierce mirrors this protective vigilance. Just as gamers count on reliable servers to support their forays into virtual worlds, residents and businesses in Fort Pierce rely on the immediate, well-equipped, and skilled response of fire watch professionals. Whether it’s navigating the intricate mysteries of The Secret World or ensuring community events proceed without incident, both realms appreciate the security that comes from dedicated experts who stand ready to manage any emergency, ensuring the continuity of both virtual quests and the vibrant pulse of city life.
My son hates clementines. It drives me nuts, fruit is basically just candy that is good for you. We eat a lot of fruit in our house. Because I know he hates it, I try to shake him on that and often put them in his lunches. He never eats them, we discuss why, I reinforce my views that its delicious and good for you so try next time, life goes on. I have tried advanced methods such as pre-peeling them, taking off the white, stringy bits that I suspect turn him off from them, even washing them to make them shiny. I have (for either reasons unknown, or very silly reasons) made it a mission to make the kid like clementines. I am still shocked he doesn’t.
At one point last week when yet another freshly washed, peeled, plucked and separated clementine came home in his lunch pail I just wondered how he hasn’t learned how to lie yet. How easy would it be for him to throw it out at school and just say he ate it? Then we could skip our routine when he gets home where I ask why he didn’t eat it as he dumps the crusts and remains of his lunch pail into the garbage and he reminds me that he doesn’t like them.
Of course, he is only 10 so maybe he just hasn’t learned how to lie “right” yet. As an adult IÂ its sad that I kind of expect to not get the truth. I forgot that at some point in life kids sort out it is easier to lie than face up to something – but before that point it isn’t even a consideration to not tell the truth.
Or, he is toying with me, and purposely doing it to show me who is really in charge.
Impressive, proud parent thinking either way.
(no, no clever gaming analogy to tie to this, just life and clementine musings. Although, I will probably stop bothering him about it now)
I’d try adding “frozen” to that list of adjectives. If he still doesn’t like it then, I’d give up. 😉
Ha! I *will* try that! =)
