what did i volunteer for?
 
So we have a theft problem at work when we are closed for the break... as a result, we all take home laptops, projectors, etc.

This time, I volunteered to let my daughter invite a few friends over for movie day... today. Wife is gone with the son and newborn, and I'm here at the house watching "Ramona and Beesus" with 5 10 year old girls on a "big screen" (about a 10ft showing) ...

Please keep me in your thoughts for the next few hours...

you're a good dad!

and i flat out refuse to google "ramona and beesus"..

when they leave, play some man-film to erase the giddiness.

A 12 hour hissy-fit is what you are in for.

For kicks leave a bunch of coca-cola and chocolates out to really get 'em going.

I'm sorry.

Enjoy the time you have with your daughter at this age. It all goes by way too fast!
+1 on being a good dad!

OK, survived Ramona and Beesus... give them some sugar (Ice Cream - Drumstick flavor by Edy's) and me some coffee, starting Sorcerer's Apprentice...

It has turned into a sleep over... only 2 guests though... movies still going ... have a beer left in the fridge...

I must say that they have all been fantastically behaved and well mannered.

Put in Avatar. I have not seen any kid able to make it thru the whole thing. It is like digital Ambien.
