1st person mix it up

I'm writing this in the first person but with some chapters being 3rd person omniscient. Isn't that a great term? I first heard it used by Heather, my soon to be (I hope) daughter in law. I knew the format but not that uber groovy term for it. Anyway, I'm going to be inserting these 3rd person omniscient chapters and according to Charlie I can. Why? Because it's my book!
I cannot believe how much I'm learning in this process. Not just about writing but so many other things along the way.
With each phrase or name or place, I do a Google look up. Ask me who invented the talking doll. What is a Breezy Rider? How long would it take to circumnavigate our galaxy? Well, actually I don't know the answer to that last one, that's a book I'm not writing....yet.
