Uncle Grandpa

...Is a suddenly very creepy concept when I stop and think about it
A manchild who openly admits he's part of a monogomous relationship, including an allegedly incestuous one goes around all day visiting kids
And lives out of an RV doing so...
...
Geez, modern living really can find a way to suck the fun out of something when you stop and look at it from those angles, huh?
Yeah, no, I'm not an Uncle Grandpa fan, but I dunno if I'd go as far as that when looking at it, lol, and hell, anyone who's got Steven Universes' backing at least gets a pass from me XD
Why the heck did we start off with this one?
Iunno, I certainly had my share of concerns recently, a grown woman hanging out with an unrelated kid, it makes me feel like I could suddenly be under the looking glass again over me taking part in the Big Sister program and getting flagged or something over suspicions XP
I wasn't sure how ready I was, or if I'd do a good enough job as a Big Sister, but, I'm happy to report, that yesterday I got to meet Leslie for the first time and we got off well enough to a good start =B
I met her after her school and, although she wasn't sure what to expect, I'm not the hardest person to miss in a crowd and we got to talking, she's plenty curious, if a little shy and reserved, thank lord for my injury count for being an ice breaker, lol
ALSO, inadvertantly I ended up bringing a conversation starter to boot, it was a Wednesday, so, I had already visited the comic book store on the way over and got my comics, she's more a book girl, but she asked about what I was looking at
THANK LORD Marvel is now offering more female and kid friendly titled lines >_>;;; I seriously doubted I wanted to share Saga or Rat Queens with her just yet - spoilers from later: I REALLY didn't wanna share Saga with her - but luckily, I'd gotten issue 2 of Moon Girl and Devil Dinosaur =B She digged the way it looked, so I yanked up my app from Comixology and she checked out the first issue while we sat on the swings at the park, we hung out and chatted a lil, hit the Museum and checked out some of the stuff, apparently she's a repeat visitor, lol, but she seemed to enjoy the goofing about as we chatted about the stuff there =B
I still dunno if I've cracked much of Leslie's shell, but she seems comfortable enough to have fun with me and we'll keep having visits, now I just gotta come up with some fun activities to share with her! =D
So, there you go! All is well and I hope to give Leslie plenty chances to have fun and just enjoy being a kid =B

Happy to hear that your first time in the Big Sister program went smoothly, best of luck on future hangouts~
Thanks gain, we're going to meet today again, so, here's hoping the law of sequels proves untrue =B
It's sad that a show like that keeps going, while Gravity Falls is ending so soon. :(
I'm glad that the Big Sister program is going well! :)
If they can make lots of shows that only have a short running time, I could get behind it with more variety and such that it leads to a lot more experimenting with animation
Rather than... say 9 years of Johnny Test =_=
But anyhow! Yes! Here's hoping I can just keep this up, lol >>
Don't show her Firefox either.
But yes, lol, although I have things to share, suddenly I feel like I should be more aggressively childproofing my phone, my shopping purchases, EVERYTHING XD
Heck, I've said it before, you've practically been a sistery influence on ME, so I'm sure this kid'll be the luckiest girl in having you!
So, yay for that hopefulness at least x3
