"WARNING: Danger eminent, step away from the car keys! Do not ride in the car with children."
The scenario...I live in BFE (you know what BFE is, do not make me type a dirty word) and to reach the nearest little town requires a thirty minute drive one way. The one store near me is a little country store which only sells the two items in the world I never purchase...cigarettes and chewing tobacco...so I do not shop there. I digress, let me move forward and relive Monday's drive to the grocery store. It should be strongly emphasized that this tale does not include the fun in the store OR during the drive home.
KER PLAT! SMACK!
"What was that?"
"Mac whacked Wil."
"Mac!"
"Well, Wil wouldn't stop licking Lee and it was really annoying me."
"Mac, you cannot slap your brother because he is licking one of your other brothers."
"Tell Wil if he is going to lick Lee, he has to do it quietly. No lapping sounds."
"But I can't lick without making sounds."
"Wait, Wil, why on earth are you licking your brother? That is so gross."
"Because Lee told me to lick him."
"You do not lick anyone for any reason. It's nasty. And Lee, why did you tell him to lick you?"
"I did not tell him to lick me. I didn't even know he was licking me."
"How can you not know someone is licking you? Wil, did he really tell you to lick him?"
"Yes, why else would I lick him. I wouldn't do something that stupid for no reason."
"Mom, are you going to make Wil lick Lee quietly? Cause if he makes that lapping noise again I'm gonna whack him again."
"Mac, you are not going to whack your brother for any reason. And Wil, there is never a time that it is OK for you to lick people.
"Not even if they tell me to?"
"Not even if they tell you to lick them. And Lee, do not ever tell anyone to lick you and if someone does lick you, tell them to stop."
"But mom, you still haven't told Wil to not make those noises when he licks Lee."
"Mac! Wil is not going to lick Lee."
"No, not if Lee doesn't tell me to lick him."
To cut short what could be a post to rival a best selling novel, I will point out this was only the first three minutes of our drive. During this outing my brain absorbed much more raw data, but I cannot bear to relive anymore conversations or events of the day. It is simply too mentally exhausting.
Now, see why I haven't been posting much lately? My brain is shot, just shot. But the body's doing good...I'm exercising with Cathe and the December rotation. How have you all been?
