Alex's physical triumphs of the day - getting the winged helm onto one of Jeff's old action figures, and wrapping herself into the super-cat sheet, making herself a "purrito".

And just for fun, this is what her knees look like after every trip to the zoo. Note the game show hostess at work pointing out the boo-boos on the knees.
