Science Museum/Butterfly Center

We made a visit to the Houston Museum of Natural Science. They are just now kicking off an expansion that will double the size of the museum. They definitely need the space to compete in modern times. The Welch Science Hall, which was very cool 10 years ago, is in serious need of updating. Sean loved the dinosaur exhibits, which we went back to several times.




Daddy's Chair Goes Bye-Bye

We finally found a replacement for Daddy's much loved chair (which unfortunately was more loved by Barley.) Sean likes the new chair a lot, and the chair is liberally coated with SmartyKat ScratchNot. It is a cat safe cat repellent. If it does not work we may need an cat repellent that is unsafe for cats.

Safety Information: Store out of cat's reach when not in use (why? so it can be used against humans?). Intended for pets only (there goes using it to keep Sean out of daddy's dark chocolate). Keep out of reach of children (double drat). Do not take internally. Use only as directed. Do not spray on pets (Come on, what fun is this stuff?).
  • 1% Lemon Oil
  • 0.2% Eucalyptus Oil (no more pet koalas)
  • 3% SP115C (secret ingredient, no info on internet)
  • 1% PEG-7 Glyceryl Cocoate (penetration enhancer?)

Children's Museum

Last weekend we made a quick visit to the Children's Museum.

This dam dam won't work


What is that big glowing orb in the sky? A sun? Which sun? We don't have one of those. (It has been a cloudy, rainy, and cold 2010 so far)
