Probably Not A Mensa Candidate

Last night as I was strolling into Ellis’ school to pick her up at the end of the day, one of her small classmates stopped me.

Kid: “Hey, are you Ellis’ mom?”

Me: “Hi. I’m sorry?”

Kid [determined and slightly exasperated]: “Are you Ellis’ MOM?”

I look over at the kid’s dad, giving him a look that says, “you see what’s happening here, too, right?” The dad looks just as perplexed as I feel.

Me: “Nope, I’m Ellis’ Dad.”

I guess I need to work on my masculine characteristics.

Obviously, sporting a full beard isn’t doing the job.

1. OUCH!

Holy Crap! Look at all this STUFF down here. It's awesome!

 

Really, I'm glad you made it down here. Almost no one ever comes down here. I'm like in a freaking dungeon down here. I get lonely. But not you. YOU made it all the way to the end of the page. For this I think I've a little crush on you. I don't know, is "love" to strong a word to use in this situation? Well, if it's not "love," then it's very strong "like." I'm totally in like with you for coming down here. You are awesome. Please love me back! I know, I know, I shouldn't be all needy, it's not attractive at all, but you don't know how it is to be stuck down here. Who scrolls all the way to the end of a page anymore these days? Anyway, thanks for shedding some light down here in the depths. I appreciate it. Shoot me an email and I'll send you a dollar, OK?
