various from the fall: nuncle visits, halloween crazies, pumpkins, bread obsession

neutrinos.

overheard and not perfectly remembered:

gma to ajt: did you hear about the neutrinos that go faster than light?
ajt to gma/gpa: what are treenos?
daddy & gpa to ajt: neutrinos are subatomic particles, like the particles in atoms.

silence from ajt. conversation moves on to some other topic.

hours later.

mommy comes home from a conference.

ajt to mommy, as she's getting out of the car: mommy, mommy, mommy, did you hear about the trees that grow faster that light bulbs in atoms?

batman song.

recently heard at our house:

ajt, singing, full volume:

batman can see in the dark, batman can see in the da-a-a-ark.
ba-atman can see in the da-a-ark, batman can see in the dark!
batman can see in the dark, batman can see in the da-a-a-ark.
ba-atman can see in the da-a-ark, batman can see in the dark!
repeat x 10.

i lo-o-ove batman! batman can see in the da-a-a-a-a-a-ark.
i lo-o-ove batman! batman can see in the da-a-a-a-a-a-ark.


ajt to daddy: do you see how i give it different motions when i sing it, different shapes?
