Where No Kid Has Gone Before


If the blog had been titled "Where No Wife Has Gone Before", you might have guessed the kitchen. But, for reasons that are totally out of this world, Peter has taken an interest in cooking and has even joined me lately to help get dinner ready. Um, define help.

Peter had been looking forward to Easter Monday almost as much as Easter. The only thing that could have been cooler is if Sebastian had been wearing his real-life Star Trek uniform when he picked him up for their overnight Godfather movie bonding.

The fact that Peter even knew how to make a pizza might be related to my unsolicited nickname of 'Jelly Belly'. Even so, I think that Peter pleasantly surprised Sebastian by not burning down his kitchen.

As the pizza baked, Sebastian made the mistake that a lot of kid-less Godfathers make and caved in to Peter's demand for sugar water. 
 

'Aaaggh! You fool! How the hell do you think you're going to get insomniac boy to sleep if you keep pouring him Cokes?'

'It's okay, we're going to watch three Star Trek movies back to back.'

'Ah, okay.'


The main focus of the trip was that Peter wanted to experience a waterbed. In addition to pizza, Cola, and a six-hour movie-thon that would have never been allowed under my wife's roof, Sebastian's waterbed finally made Peter's Bucket List. Ka-check!

In the morning, Sebastian once again showed his non-parental colors by feeding the sleep-deprived chocolate-covered bread served with, yep, chocolate milk.


'Buddy, are you insane? Chocolate in the morning??!! He's going to be wired for the entire day!'

Rather than caring, Sebastian dropped Hyper-boy off in the afternoon, smirked, and wished us a pleasant evening. Thanks. Really.
