My daughter is constantly asking me about this or that and as she gets older, it gets harder to answer her question. So I always refer her to the Internet. If you look at her on-line searches of course my space and y-tube is on the top of the list but then comes ask.com and wiki as she is always starving for statics. So the other day she was asking me about something, I can’t remember what it was but I told her to look online as I didn’t have the answer. As she was researching her question she ran across this list of thousands of interesting facts and precedes to start reading them off to me, one by one. I of course was busy fixing dinner and was only half heartily listening to her. After about fifty facts that didn’t relate to anything I was currently focusing on (not burning the pork chops) I told her to pick her favorite 10 and write them down and I would read them later.

She did just that and a few days later I sat down and read her list. OMG is all I can say. To have the worries and interests of a 14 year old would be so refreshing right now considering the only facts or statistics my life revolves around are bills, budgets and how much I can actually accomplish in a 24 hour period.
