it would appear that the almighty elmo has lured another one of my boys into his world of high-pitched giggles, goldfish and crayons. for days nate has been saying "mama" constantly, which i thought was so sweet and precious it made me gag a little (heh), but then i figured out he's been saying "melmo!" why i oughtta! heh. no really, i'm fine with the elmo obsession -- it'll blow over. it does make me appreciate the marketing genius behind this elmo character, though. millions of babies, toddlers and preschoolers have fallen in love with elmo -- oftentimes at first glance! pretty impressive. it's a good thing i have a high tolerance for that kind of shit.
