Never have kids, and the Da Vinci Code movie

<gripe>It's been a fun past few days. Caleb has conjunctivitis (aka pink eye), Daniel spent 2 nights in hospital after an unexplained serious temperature, and Clair is down and feeling terrible with a nasty case of the Flu. I had to take two days leave during one of the busiest times ever at work, and to top it off the weather is insane (8 degrees outside, with a howling gale thrown in thanks to a huge cold front. There be snow on the mountains). I'm going back to work tomorrow for a break :-)</gripe>

There are upsides to having kids though, and they outweigh the downsides a million fold :)

On a separate note, apparently The Da Vinci Code movie sucks. I blame all the crazy hype pushing up expectations unrealistically... I liked the novel, but I didn't love it. I still don't understand Christians who get upset and all up in arms about the movie (maybe I would if I was Catholic ;-)... if you can't see that it's a work of fiction - like the book - you have bigger issues to deal with (and if the movie/book shakes your faith, it wasn't really a solid faith to start off with, now was it?).
