As told to me by one of my students:
"Hey Mrs B-! You wanna hear about my dream last night?!? They(?) were giving out super powers and I was so stoked!!! But when I told my mom about it, she wouldn't let me get one. And when she finally decided to let me have one, all the good ones were already taken. So all I had to choose from were the crappy ones. Man...that really sucked."
How funny is that?!? I guess we moms have the market cornered on being regular buzz-kills, don't we??? It just takes a while for mom-brains to figure stuff out. Super powers are serious business. I mean, you don't wanna give your kid a super power complex he might later regret, right??? Like who has time for kid super hero therapy sessions when you're already running them to scouts, church, sports, band, and b-day parties??? Now-if they had a super power that made kids pick crap off the floor... or scrub the bathroom pristine... or cook meals while scrubbing the pots and pans...
BTW-I am calling a Back-To-School-Pick-Your-Own-Crap-Up-Off-The-Floor-OR-DIE!-Meeting in the very near future over here at blither blather headquarters.
Hope ya'll are surviving the start of school. I want to butcher my alarm clock...
