Oddly, we don't actually bake that much in the bakery

I've discovered they have a very... direct, I suppose, way of teaching the newbies at work.

( Cake-writing 101 )

I was running commentary on the television show my father was watching last night (I have an unfortunate habit of not being able to shut up when watching television. Movie theaters or people telling me to be quiet can stop me, but not much else). He found it mostly amusing, so I was allowed to keep talking, but he did ask if I did this with shows I liked. Of course I do!

Somehow, this led to him wanting to watch Transformers. (...No, I don't get it, either.)

He wanted something silly, but didn't want Beast Wars (I do not know why), so we watched a few episodes of G1. I need to get some of the other series, really. He didn't have any problems with what he watched (and even admitted that it was very entertaining if you didn't take it seriously), but I think he probably would have liked one of the more recent ones better. Maybe Armada. I don't know.


I joked at one point that I must have been born a fan of the franchise, and Dad mentioned that the Autobot-Decepticon scene change thing was familiar. Apparently when two of my cousins visited (I was three at the time and so have no memory of this), they would watch Transformers. So now I can blame both my love of video games and my love of Transformers on my two oldest cousins on my father's side. Craaazy.



The Takara-type Beast Wars 10th Primal and Megatron set is showing up in stores. ...ack.
