<p>Day 94 started out as Go Kart Racing with World's Most Precious Niece and Nephew.  I hadn't driven a Go Kart since I was a kid, and we all know how I love to play with my Inner Child as often as possible.

<p>I mistakenly thought that since I play the guitar, I might excel at Guitar Hero.  Seems logical, doesn't it?

<p>I decided that channeling Nancy Wilson might bring me luck.  I attemped "Barracuda".  I was so dismayed that I forgot to take a photo.

<p> A 10 year-old boy approached me with pity in his eyes.  I brushed off my bruised ego by rambling on and on and on while he stared at me. <a href="http://www.diaryofalatebloomer.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/12/ghbrendan.jpg"><img class="alignnone size-medium wp-image-2978" title="ghbrendan" src="http://www.diaryofalatebloomer.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/12/ghbrendan-300x225.jpg" alt="" width="300" height="225" /></a>
