Just found something more exciting than Elcipse (which I haven't yet seen)
Brandon Boyd is launching a solo album! If you aren't aware, I spend my days pining away for Señor Boyd. Okay, not exactly pining. But as of right now, Incubus is the only band for which I'll insist on GA tickets. I'm getting a little too old for that crap, and I've never really been big enough to hold my own in the pit. But it matters NOT when Incubus comes to my fair city.

Neurosis Alert
Come on, I can't be the only neurotic mom out there. Everyone has their little idiosyncrasies. Things that make you freeze in your tracks, or spaz out for no reason.
Today is Isaiah's first time going swimming with his day camp group. I'm freakin terrified. Tonight we plan for private swim lessons. My nervous system can't take this.
CNN's been reporting non stop on 7 year old Kyron Horman in OR, who has been missing for ... well, wya too long. Every time I see his picture my heart breaks just a little more. I bet his evil step mom knows what happened. This makes my heart break even more.

Why Can't I Microchip My Kid?
Fear. Dread. Near Panic.
That’s how I felt last night, thinking about Isaiah’s first day at day camp. Then I woke up at o-dark-thirty to worry some more. It’s a public park, with noelectric fences safety perimeters to keep them in, or bad guys out. With horror, I realized he hasn’t memorized my cell phone number yet, so it’s written on a card in his pocket. Of course, my mind is crawling with worst case scenarios. Abductions. Run away tanker trucks. NAMBLA conventions.
I can microchip my dog, so why can’t I microchip my kids?? My car has Lo-Jack, but I’m not allowed to install it on my kids? Something’s wrong here. Is there someone, somewhere that makes money on lost kids? Is it like refusing to cure the common cold, because too many medicine companies would go out of business?
Of course I worry about Daimean, but not quite as much. He’s been at this camp for a few years and knows his way around. He can swim. Isaiah can’t swim, but he thinks he can. I’m afraid that he’s going to go jump in the deep water and those lazy, good for nothing lifeguards will be too worried about looking cute to care. And Daimean’s got a cell phone, which he could use, say, if he was abducted and locked in someone’s trunk.
Yeah, I’m going to go back to worrying now.
