DID YOU HEAR THAT??

Oct. 3rd, 2008 at 3:52 PM

By "that" I mean the gauntlet thrown down by my son. Guess who just walked in the door with a copy of Breaking Dawn? My son. "I know you said I couldn't read this, but there's nothing you can do about it, now."

Oh, re-hee-heeeaaally? I walked off, hands on hips, sucking in air, trying to calm myself. Then I smiled. Mine is an evil smile.

"Fine. Your punishment for openly defying me and being a jerk about it is that you will read the book. All of it. Cover to cover. And believe me, you're going to want to stop. But I'm not going to let you. And there will be a quiz when you're done."

I walked off laughing, he sat there, stunned, the tiniest of lip quivers forming.

Score one for this mama.

Spock is:: Eeeeeevil

AWESOME.

I now have this image of your son, penitent and begging you to let him stop reading, offering to do his siblings' chores and eat all of his vegetables.

Oh, it's on! I admire your skillful administration of the maternal smackdown. Can one of the quiz questions be: when will I learn that my mama is always right? ;)

Wow. That's harsh. I hope none of your readers report you to Child Protective Services.

Also, you may want to do his future girlfriends a favor, and let him know that women with brain cells to rub together do not find it quite so sparkle-rific when their boyfriends 1) Carry them around because they are too inept to walk 2) Stare at them while they sleep and 3) Vandalize their cars to prevent them from interacting with others.

And that'[s....one to grow on.

(Incidentally, I just remembered that episode of Friends, where Chandler goes ballistic at his new creepy roommate, who indignantly replies, "Don't get so mad! What about all those nights I watched you sleep and you *Didn't* wake up!?!?!?")

HAHAHAHAHA!!! I forgot that ep of Friends!! And they finally convinced him he didn't live there by just having Chandler move back in. HEE. Oh, I loved that show.

Reading this? I'm just curious. Because that's really detail-oriented of you. Feel free to stop reading. But you can see that there's more here, so are you going to keep reading? Really? That's pretty dedicated. I'm impressed. No, really. I'm not being sarcastic, why do you get like that? See, this is the problem I have with your mother - yes. YES. I'm going there. It's time we put all of our cards on the table.

I love you, why are you doing this? After all we've been through? You don't have to be like this. You know, still reading. You could be baking a pie. And then sharing it with me.
