Punk Mom

Weird Monday today, at least along the time line.  We're here before the Fourth of July, and supposedly at rest because of the holiday and yet we're not because it's all about Summer Xtreme upcoming.  Mom has been working on twenty seven different costumes for the cast members, including some cool steampunk hats and a pretty funny punk look for Camille's character, a villain from the dystopian alternate present.



Arrr!  The hat is pretty amazing.  You'll see that on Day Two.  Today there was no taekwondo, so tonight we were doing our Indiana Jones marathon, this time with "Temple of Doom," a movie I've seen so many times since it was first released.  Still, it's great riding along with Indiana Jones again, on elephants, airplanes, life rafts, mine cars, or whatever.  Remember this arcade game for "Temple of Doom"?  I always liked that one, and the one for "Return of the Jedi."


Anyway, today we were doing a lot of work for the new series.  There are handouts and there are scripts and soundtracks and there are name tags and many, many other things to do to set things up.  We were at the movie theater today to run through the basic plan for getting hundreds of kids in to get popcorn and drinks and getting them to their theater.  The folks there haven't seen this many kids come in all at once since 2019, and that was probably us back then.  


It's been a quiet day, although a busy one.  We're getting ready for Summer Xtreme, and the Fourth of July too.  Tonight we read from "Life, the Universe, and Everything" just before bedtime, and then said our prayers.  Tomorrow should be a fun day.
