Childhood Memory

One of my very first memories of childhood happened in the summertime. I had just turned 5 and I remember asking my mom when I was going to start school. It's a small, simple memory, but I remember nearly every detail about that moment. Just this morning I experienced a sort of out-of-body deja vu feeling when I heard my son, who also just turned 5, ask my wife the same question. It was a surreal feeling, hearing it ... but not nearly as surreal as when Elton John suddenly popped out of nowhere belting out the song "Circle of Life" from the Lion King. Full disclosure: The first part actually happened, but the 2nd part with Elton John didn't. Well ... it did kind of happen in my head at the time, but mostly I was just trying to end this post on some sort of joke ... so don't ask me to get his autograph for you or anything.
