Scenes from my life

The kidlet has a friend over to spend the night. We had videos rented and activities planned, but the two of them decided they'd rather act out "The Sound Of Music."

Two lines of the title theme -- two lines of "How Do You Solve A Problem Like Maria" -- the scene where Maria arrives at the mansion and is welcomed by the butler -- the scene where the children step forward and announce their names (and these two ten-year-olds know all the children's names) -- and then suddenly they get bored, and the friend announces, "This is a remix! The captain's nice and Maria's mean!"

Now the kidlet (as Maria) is in handcuffs and the friend (Mother Superior) is slapping them around. It's like the musical theater version of Calvinball.



edited 2019 to retroactively correct the kidlet's gender pronouns
