In late May, my best friend James and I took my daughter Presley to see X. She had a blast.
Yesterday, it became apparent what an impact that whole event has had on her.
Like most seven year olds, she loves lightning bugs — even though most other insects freak her out.
She caught four the other day. Their names: Exene, Billy Zoom, John Doe and DJ Bonebrake. I talked her into letting them go. Last night, she had another one in her special plastic bug container thing (a jar with holes in the lid was good enough when I was a kid). She swears it's Exene again.

Now THAT'S a switch!
Insects named after a rock band instead of the other way around!
Awww......that almost made my ass light up! Coolest kid ever, Toby :)
