On the second Friday of January, I took Livinia and Sabrina to Laserium, up at the Museum of Natural History's Hayden Planetarium. Sabrina thought it was "fresh" and "rad" (I think that was what she said) and Livinia liked the music (Pink Floyd and Yes) and the laser light show, though together, they didn't make much sense to her -- but we did a lot of earnest and covert hand-holding. |
