My child goes missing: “What she looks like? Um, I think I have a pic somewhere, but it’s from 6 years ago and she’s in a Halloween costume…”
My cat goes missing: “Here’s 12,941 photos in 83 albums. If we print them we can make a flip book of her life up to now…”

I have tickets to see the new D&D movie on Saturday, and twelve-year-old me is STOKED.
Also, my sense of humor and taste in media locked in at age 12 and haven't changed in 32 years, so 44-year-old me is JUST AS STOKED.
