Real life - real answers

on the way to piano:

Andrea: "AJ, why do you bother to clean the car when you know we're going to mess it up again on Friday?"
AJ: "I don't know"
Lizzy: "So it won't smell like McDonald's."

on the way home from piano:

Lizzy: "AJ, Andrea spilled Mondo Global Grape in your car! She spilled it on my jacket!"
AJ: "So?"

later:

Lizzy: "Daddy, Andrea spilled Mondo Global Grape on my jacket!
Kevin: "Good thing it's purple."

So, how do I write about a day in which Andrea locked me in Mrs. Reed's bathroom, karate chopped me so hard I have a bruise, and spilled Mondo Global Grape in my car? How do I write about a day in which Lizzy asks me if I've heard anymore news about the Clinton scandal?

Kevin got a new computer in those cool cow patterned Gateway 2000 boxes. Andrea wants to build a house out of the boxes. He installed Nickelodeon 3D Movies on it before he went out for the evening. This is so way wicked cool that the kids didn't even watch Full House either of the two times it's on. We did however watch Sabrina the Teenage Witch -both episodes. And all evening on ABC, Salem the cat kept popping up with denials that he'd had an improper relationship with Socks. Lizzy thought that was not nice to make fun of President Clinton like that. I thought it was pretty funny.

Gotta get me that Nickelodeon 3D Movies though. I made several movies - my favorite was of a fly buzzing around the kitchen from various camera angles.

The Mondo Global Grape kind of goes with my upholstery.
