Pops and Colors

Pops has long been known to call colors by the wrong names. Mother says that because Pops takes a color blind test at work he thinks he's an expert on color. Pops said he wanted to get a new brown shirt and Mother was "immediately afraid" that he meant a different color because his car is gold but he calls it brown. He thinks that our friend Kim's car is aqua-ish when in reality it is a pretty deep blue. Pops says that he's right.

Home Alone

Mother has been in our state's capital for the past few days and Pops has been working when I get home from school so I've had the house almost completely to myself. I've used this alone time to gather my thoughts and create plans for the future. When I'm not busy with that I play Goldeneye and let the dog out. What these past days have lacked in glitz and glamor they have made for with learning and experience. I'm sad to see this mini-vacation come to a close, but it will be nice to have somebody to prepare my meals.
