today was kind of fun. mom signed me up for a kid meetup. we all met at a near by park. (mom and i got there just in time after making a quick stop at walmart to pick up pasta strainers, a stand trowel and TORPEDOES!) there were like 20kids all milling about. i saw a couple kids i've seen before at other dates. one of the boys is a little older and he was being cheeky so i copied him. mom was not impressed. so the park was pretty good. we all stomped through the woods to a stream. there was a bit of a muddy bank to clamber down and then we all stomped around in the water. that's right today's playdate was stomping around in the water. awesome!
really the playdate was about find sharks teeth in the sand. mom showed me how to fill my strainer full of sand and slowly shake it back and forth until all the sand flowed out and only rocks and bits remained. if you do that enough eventually you'll find a shark tooth from millions of years ago. i was more interested in splashing about. mom pretty much just left me to it. she was busy sifting sand. she found a bunch of teeth. i only found a few shells. it's hard work. making splashes is much more satisfying. it started to rain around noon time so everyone got out of the water and headed home.
got home and it was bath time. mom scrubbed all the sand off me. i got dried up and fresh clothes applied. the rest of the day is movie watching on the couch.
