Kids No More

As of today, I don’t have “kids.” I have “young adults.” That’s right, it’s my daughter’s 18th birthday. (She got her present on Saturday: A gift card so she can buy more manga… like she needs more, am I right?)

Today she signed up for Google so she can have her own Gmail and Google+ account… they wouldn’t let her until today, you see.

They grow up so fast!

(Mind you: No matter how old they get, they’ll always be my “rugrats.” Heh.)

      Well, that’s nice for you. She couldn’t get one without some sort of chicanery, and I’ve tried to raise my kids such that they avoid that sort of thing when possible. *shrug* She only had to wait a few weeks once she decided she wanted one, so no big deal there.

    I’ve had one since I was 12.

    Oh wait. The internet didn’t exist back then.

    And I don’t have a gmail account anyway.
