Emma’s Tricks – Amazing Grace Edition
Not so long ago Emma learned how to sing the first stanza of the song Amazing Grace. She also found out that singing that song always puts a smile in Marchesa’s and my face. She’s a quick learner and is now using it as a weapon. Every time she does something bad she stays silent for a couple of seconds and then starts singing Amazing Grace.
Just great. Now we have to explain to her what justification means.

Aaaaaaaargh!!!!! Don’t even bother asking me about it.
Port Authority Billboard Needs an Antivirus Update

We were walking along 8th Ave and saw that the Port Authority Billboard was down. Then my co-worker, Alex Filatov realized that It wasn’t “down”, it just needed to update its Virus Definitions. Check the gallery for more Pictures

Tale of The Mighty Knights
Yesterday, Marchesa and I took Emma to watch a live Backyardigans play at the State Theater in New Brunswick. We got the tickets last minute so we ended up getting nose bleed seats. It was a blessing in disguise I guess since it was just so hard to see through all the "really tall and biiiig" parents. I think the best seats in the house were at the edge or end of each section.
Parking was not as bad as I thought but I was getting worried that we were going to miss the opening sequence. We found parking a couple blocks away from the theater and ended up walking through George Street. Marchesa was telling me how much that place changed since her Rutgers days. We will definitely come back to walk around the area.
We got in the theater just in time for the intro and Emma got so excited. I was getting pissed since I didn’t know we got nosebleed seats and couldn’t really find where we were supposed to be. We sat at that one place and got kicked out 5 minutes later because apparently there are multiple G-122, G-124 and G-126’s. Ours was located next to the spotlight guy. Grr. I was so irritated that the usher didn’t even bother telling us we were supposed to be next to the clouds.
It wasn’t that bad though since the theater wasn’t as big. You can still see the actors noses. Emma had a lot of fun with her star shaped fairy wand while watching the show.
We ended the night with dinner at Bennigans. While waiting for the food, Emma and I had this fake conversation using a fake language. It sounded really convincing since she played along rather well. We came home and Emma started using the Fairy wand to attack me with Sailor Moon moves. Cracked us up.
It was a greatway to kick off Emma’s Birthday.
