      No. It makes you a good mom. I wish someone had had the decency to cancel the many less flattering portraits taken of me when I was young.

      Winter: snow fort/tunnel construction, amateur figure skating, throwing snowballs at cars (and maybe people)
      Summer: Wet Banana Slide! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GL2hYF2a2aY
      If Banana Slide no longer exists, I will be a bit sad. The neighbor's had an awesome slope in their backyard that was the perfect slide location—except for the sprinkler system, which could clip you in the bottom. Watch out!

      You've come to the right place:

      Great view, posh, and pretty quiet, for a bar: The View @ Marriott Marquis Hotel (top floor)
      Pirates of the Caribbean (for adults): Smuggler's Cove on Gough and Mcallister
      Tiki lounge singers, thunder and lightening, kitschy greatness: Tonga Room & Hurricane Bar @ The Fairmont
      1930s Speakeasy with awesome drinks: Bourdon & Branch (see website for entry password)
      Reliable dive bar, nice patio, best Bloody Marys: El Rio on Mission and Precita Ave.
      Cool atmosphere, decent drinks, you can pretend to be Jack Kerouac: Vesuvio on Columbus
