rivkaI went in to wake Alex up this morning. I sat on the edge of her bed rubbing her back and saying soothing little nothings to help her transition to being awake.
Eventually she rolled over, looked up at me sleepily, and asked, "Am I viviparous?"
"...Yes," I said. That seemed to satisfy her. I asked her about it a little while later and she told me she had been dreaming about mammals.
What the hell are we going to do with this kid? Other than teach her to memorize Joanna Russ's "Useful Phrases for the Intergalactic Tourist," I mean.

Get an encyclopedia?
Take a moment every now and then to be awed?
Hope that when she conquers the world, she remembers you fondly?
I don't know myself, but it sounds like you're in for an interesting time. And I mean that in a good way.
