I guess we're Goth now...

I took the little one back to school shopping this afternoon, always a good time, btw. We got the new backpack, lunch bag, pencils, folders, binder, pens and a few notebooks. She's all set and she's thrilled. She's got the issues with office supplies that I have, so it was great.

Last year we were all about the folders with puppies and kittens, a Hannah Montana and High School Musical folder thrown in for good measure. This year we're all about skulls and black and pink. It's a pretty big shift for the little girl who was once totally into princesses and everything pink and purple.

I asked her if we'd be stopping in the cosmetic aisle for black lipstick and white face paint and she just rolled her eyes at me.

Damn...she's only 10.

As long as she doesn't start cutting "just so she can feel something," then you're golden
