That was a packed book, a lot of changes for the Quimby family and the fun the parents had was pretty great, just dealing with aging in silly ways. Aw, man... that chapter six!

Oh and the Purina cat chow one with that lady who was in those Benji movies, the housekeeper lady! That took me back to remembering a time not everyone on TV had to be svelte, it wasn't a prerequisite or whatever.
Anyway, hoping to start the next book soon!
