Intelligence
Stephen: Remember that Hoth Star Wars thing at the bookstore?
Leonard: No.
Stephen: I remember. Ha! I'm smarter than you!
Leonard: No.

Kit Twisto
One of Stephen's favorite activities is dismantling his Star Wars action figures and reassembling them in different combinations. Today, he put Kit Fisto's head on Luminara Unduli's body. (Stephen says that the Luminara figure is, "just not well-designed" because the head is easy to pop off.) The new figure is Kit Twisto, Kit Fisto's wife, because, "every Star Wars character needs a wife. Isn't she pretty?"

Now that Lizzie is mobile
she likes to eat, whenever possible, catfood, leaves (which always makes her throw up), and electrical cords. Nothing else interests her as much.

Plague at 2332 Ardmore
Arthur goes down on the evening of Oct 4. 103 temp. Starts throwing up 2 days later. Never hits toilet or bucket, encases house in vomit. misses Tuesday-Friday of school.
Leonard has weird head cold all week and then diarrhea starting Saturday Oct 10
Stephen goes down Oct 9 throws up all over kitchen rug. Throws up a couple more times, but notable successful in target puking. This is a great life skill. Couple days of fever, but does pretty well.
Mimi goes up North on long awaited trip with Susanna who flew in for the occasion Friday night. Starts with God-awful diarrhea on Saturday and high fever. Up North sister bonding vacation is spent watching lifetime movies in hotel room. Susanna keeps trying to make it fun. Brings wine and cheese into room keeps up funny commentary about stupid TV then gives up and realizes the trip is just going to suck. The one attempt at sight seeing before the plague sets in is foiled by 45 mile an hour winds kicking sand from the dunes and Susanna, a contact wearer can't handle it. Susanna leaves Northwest Michigan without ever seeing lake Michigan.
Lizzie starts Sunday night with fever. Monday diarrhea and vomiting kick in (lots in the middle of the night) Threatened hospitalization on Tuesday, but hangs tough so wait and see.
Good times!

Arthur's Nails and Little Murder
At some point, without our realizing it, Arthur has stopped biting his nails. Mimi just noticed this.
Mimi had an opportunity to appear in the movie, "Little Murder," but withdrew herself from consideration when she realized they were looking for a body double for Lake Bell.
