I'm thinking about burning some books and stuff

On Tuesday we are going to be presenting a resolution on banned books.  Well, I am thinking we might have a little bonfire here at 711 College Street.  (You people at the YSAQMD please stop reading here).
As many of you know, Jenn and I tried to stop the princess virus from infecting our home.  We did well for a while and then it hit hard.  We have Princess stuff everywhere. 

It had been going fairly well lately.  We had been trying to let Abbie know that certain things only happened in the books she read.  It was never ending.

I've complained before about the soccer ball incident at Big 5. Well, when we were in Minnesota Abbie actually caught her first fish with a Disney Princess fishing pole.  Will the freaking Disney Company just leave my family alone? Not even fishing is sacred.

So today was pretty much the last straw.  Adam was up early and needed a diaper change.  I am changing the diaper when I hear Abbie say "Good morning Daddy" right behind me.  I did not even finish saying "Good morning Abbie." when she asked me her first question of the day.

"DADDY, WILL YOU COME TO MY WEDDING?"

When a 3 1/2 year old little girl in Woodland wakes up on a Sunday morning in September and the first processed thought to come out of her mouth is about her wedding day then something is seriously wrong. 

I realize that Americans have a history of blaming other people for their problems.  Well, I'm blaming Walt Disney and that whole company he created that is now complicating my daughter's life with thoughts that are 20 years too early.

Here is the stupid fishing pole.
