For about two weeks now Jeremy has been grumbling daily about "somewhere fun" or doing "something fun." I have no idea where this comes from; that is, I certainly understand that in the afternoons he prefers playgrounds to the grocery store, but I'm not sure if this is a phrase that he picked up from somewhere else or made up on his own. The point is that it certainly is his current line, a refrain offered in the my-life-is-so-hard manner one might expect from a much older adolescent. Of course, they'd have nothing on Jeremy when it comes to delivery and parental contempt.

Incidentally, today he, Harry, and I did not really do anything "fun." We went to a store to buy supplies for Harry's Halloween costume. As stores go, Michaels is a fun one for the boys, but it didn't meet Jeremy's standards in that regard.
