CMOM After Hours Children’s Museum of Memphis Friday, June 13, 5:30-7:30 p.m.  I don’t wanna grow up. I’m a Toys-R-Us kid. But Toys-R-Us closed, so I had to grow up. Unfortunately. But for just one night, I’d like to be a kid. I don’t have to be a Toys-R-Us kid — I don’t need to associate with a brand in this capitalist society. Just let me be a kid. I know it’s Friday the 13th, so we’re tempting fate here, and I really don’t want a reverse Big situation on my hand.
