    Still reading the voter information pamphlet and filling out my ballot. Sending political comments to #sonTwo, because we can talk about such things without getting angry. ( #sonOne immediately wants to argue if one believes even the slightest bit differently than he does; #Daddy_A gets silent and stops talking to you ... sometimes for months ... when such topics come up. )

    #sonOne only watches when he can be there in person, so I know he's not watching. We used to go to Dodger Stadium 3-4 times per year.

    By the time #sonTwo was old enough to do the trip, I was going less frequently, but we went to lots of minor league games.

    I don't recall taking #Daddy_A to a major league game, but we went to a few minor league games.

    #sonTwo has asked me to return later this year and again in the first quarter of next year. I'll try to come some time between Thanksgiving and Christmas.

    I'll need to rent a car that time, so I can zip up to see #sonOne and possibly #Daddy_A also.

    So it looks like the science boat (that took #sonTwo and #Daddy_A on their 8th grade field trip) is no more. Imagine being on a three-day boat trip with ~200 middle school kids.

    No, actually, it was a surprisingly good time. Except on the bus ride back home when I asked one kid why he was called $NICKNAME and he started crying. But he soon got back in control and was fine.

    #Daddy_A bought some Fortnite in-game theme pack for #sonTwo. I’m glad to see them relating well. Neither of the younger two is especially close with the oldest (10-12 years older), though I am working to bridge that gap.

    Saw a big 48 pack of the brand of TP my mom likes, so I bought it.

    Also got Duplo blocks as my gift to #GS3 (like giant Lego blocks for younger children). #sonTwo and his wife are excited about my visit to #MO. They've already made plans for me to return in a couple of months.

    Let #sonOne know I'll be at his brother's place, three hours away. Now we'll have to schedule a day for him.

    #Daddy_A lives six hours away, and spent too much visiting #SoCal, so he's not coming to visit while I'm there.

    #Daddy_A still had a squeaky little kid voice until he was around sixteen or seventeen years old.

    So the weirdest thing is happening. #Daddy_A, who has never been one to express an opinion about something that someone else might feel strongly about, is suddenly sending me messages about politics and the environment.

    So far, it isn't annoying, even though I generally avoid those topics to begin with. (With #sonTwo, we can generally discuss a topic and even advocate for points of view that neither of us hold, without getting angry, but most people cannot discuss such topics peaceably, except with people who believe exactly the same as they do.)

    Because he's always been so reluctant to speak up, I try to make sure to never appear to endorse any POV when communicating with him. He's still the conflict-avoiding twelve year old, except he's almost twenty years older.

    #Daddy_A asked me to pick up #Fortnite and join him, #sonTwo, and #Little_Boy_A in a game. So I've asked @amic@nulled.red and @corbin what I need to do.

    It's honestly not likely that I'll be available at the exact time they play, but I'll make an effort to join them.

    Going to try to figure out a time to call #sonOne. Looks like the last #videochat was 2020-06-07. I'll also try to call #Daddy_A.

    I never heard of https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jay_Jay_the_Jet_Plane before today. 1998-2005, so really targeted at a younger group than mine ( #Daddy_A, the youngest, was born in 1989 ).

    Here's an episode: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2oy4_Rl9_fw ... I suppose they'd have shown two of these 12 and a half minute episodes in one half-hour show.

    1. Jay Jay the Jet Plane
      Jay Jay the Jet Plane is an American live-action/CGI-animated musical children's television series based at the fictional Tarrytown Airport, which aired on The Learning Channel and PBS Kids. The series has 50 episodes, and is centered on a group of aircraft who live in the fictional city of Tarrytown. The episodes are commonly distributed in 25-minute-long (as without commercials) pairs, with one header sequence and one end credits for each pair. Each episode contains one or more songs. The theme song and the majority of the other songs were written by well-known children's singer/songwriter Stephen Michael Schwartz, and sung by his popular musical group, Parachute Express. Created by David and Deborah Michel, the series is intended to be educational and to teach life and moral lessons to children (and sometimes also to teenagers and parents). History In late 1994, a short live-action series was produced at AMS Production Company in Dallas, Texas, with real model plane characters, and handcrafted human characters; they had the same personalities as in the later series. This original series was narrated similarly to...

    HOME RUN.

    #Daddy_A sent a photo of the happiest little girl I've ever seen in my life. #Little_Girl_A3 received her two baby dolls for her 3rd birthday. I think that's easily the best $20 I ever spent.

    I'm told that #Little_Boy_A2 was also happy with his birthday gift, but no photo was sent.

    I don't know whether #Daddy_A is going to hold onto the toys until the kids' birthdays, but the toys for #Little_Boy_A2 and #Little_Girl_A3 arrived today.

    #Daddy_A lived in #AZ for a year or two. When I told him how hot it is today, he immediately told me how glad he is to have left #SoCal and #Arizona to move to #NE ( #Nebraska gets both hot and humid, but not as hot as AZ or as humid as #Mississippi ).

    Sent #sonTwo, #Daddy_A, and my friends Mark and S each a photo of the outside and inside of #GD1's birthday card. Mark just called back to ask me if I knew what I bought.

    Yes. She'll be 13. That's probably the tamest card she'll get.

    Forgot what it is like to not feel hot at midday. Spent a couple of hours with #Daddy_A and the family at the outdoor seating of a food place.

    The kids don't see me enough, even by video. The middle child ( #Little_Boy_A2, almost 4 ) made sure to stay outside of hugging range, but the other kids ( #Little_Boy_A, age 7; and #Little_Girl_A3, almost 3 ) got some hugs.

    We talked about upcoming birthday gifts, A2's toy airplane and upcoming preschool, A's upcoming school year, and A3's expanding vocabulary.

    Going to see my baby boy ( #Little_Boy_A ) and his dad ( #Daddy_A ) and the rest of the family today. (This is the 7 year old from #NE, not the 1 year old from #MO.)

    I’m trying to think how long it has been since I’ve seen #Daddy_A in person. Once, for about four hours, three years ago. Before that, maybe another 2-3 years (that time was about an hour), and before that maybe a year?

    So the last time I saw them regularly was before they moved away (first to #AZ, then to #NE).

    Sort of craving a burger. Tempted to walk about a mile and grab either the Beyond Beef Famous Star burger or the Guacamole Bacon Cheeseburger. I can consider it reconnaissance for tomorrow or the next day, when I get to see #Daddy_A and family.

    It is 98F / 37C outside, so I need to ask myself if I want it enough to go out in that heat.

    Missed Wire call time for #sonOne because I was en route to the meeting place for #Daddy_A.
