omg, you guys. I'm at Starbucks and I just witnessed the CUTEST father-son interaction. This guy had a little boy (maybe 5ish?) and was looking through a local magazine/events guide type thing and guiding the kid into sounding out the words and reading them (and was SO SWEET AND PATIENT AND ENCOURAGING about it, like, Boy: "but I can't guess!" Dad: "We're not guessing, we're sounding it out...") and THEN they had a conversation where he explained what the Super Bowl was, and THEN as they were leaving he held the door for the kid and waited for him to finish his drink and he had this gorgeous FOND SMILE on his face while he watched him and it killed me, basically.

It was really cute.

Anyway. Now I'm trying to figure out if this is an example of sublimation or desublimation. :-/

Haha. I'm not sure I'd let a five-year-old watch Numb3rs!
