I found some things from when I was very very little, including one of those books that asks you all sorts of questions about yourself and you fill in the answers, and it's called '(your name here)'s Book' or something.
Apparently, when I grew up, I was certain I would have sheep, cows, horses, goats, pigs, llamas, alpacas, rabbits, dogs and cats.
Apparently, I also wished my parents had named me Oliver.
This is actually really cool.

Watching my little sister get really excited over her Neopets games. She's 17.
I have neopets, got them a year after introducing my daughter to the game when she was 7. I still log in occasionally and lodge them or use the lab ray or whatever.
What made me laugh today was bad things. I don't know if it's gallows humor as a coping mechanism or if that's just the way I am. My daughter's school room had to be evacuated because she was flipping out because she wanted to play with blocks. On Friday it was the same thing because she'd snuck in some lip gloss and they tried to make her put it away.
Half the stuff she tells me is innocent and adorable and the other half sounds innocent but also like serial killer talk. Somebody pointed out she should be a "threatener for the mafia" after she very straight-facedly described a nice young german shepherd and how he has short fur for his breed and he's almost a year old and she would never poke him with an umbrella because he wouldn't like that. Wait what?
Lol now I don't trust her with umbrellas.
She has such an odd mixture of ralphie ("when I grow up I want to be a principal or a caterpillar") and hannibal that it's hard not to laugh being around her all the time.
