Our due date is coming up. August 7.
It's the same day that "GI Joe: Rise of Cobra" opens in theaters worldwide.
My life has become a strange cycle of symbolism and memories made sort of new and stomped around.
I watched "GI Joe" the cartoon when I was a kid and now I'm having a child--100% confirming my adulthood--on the same day that the live-action movie version of my childhood cartoon comes out.
Will my child get into GI Joe because of these new movies? Or will he watch the old cartoons? Or new-old cartoons?
Will he appreciate things like this:
Will he seek out the truth to appreciate "Body Massage?" And by truth I mean the original ham-fisted moralizing cartoon?
And I almost forgot to mention that MY "original" childhood cartoon was based on toys from the '60's. So we're now on our third leg of recycling what is essentially a nicknaming toy.
Less than a week away. I'm screwed.
