He Doesn’t Know the Half of It
Wow, my baby is just so darn grown up now. I mean… he’s worldly now, he’s experiencing things, and then… he’s coming home and telling me all about it.
Me: So how are you and K, doing?
Ethan: Great! It’s hard to believe it’s only been three months. I mean… I’ve had relationships where 5 weeks felt like 50 years.
Me: Oh… really. (stifling a laugh)
Ethan: Guess that’s one for your blog, huh, Mom?
Me: Probably.
——————————–
Ethan has a friend, B, that he met in 7th grade. Now they have some classes together in high school. B is a pretty funny kid in an Alex P. Keaton meets Ferris Beuler kind of way. The high schools don’t sell sodas anymore, so B, brings a twelve pack every day and sells them… he’s like a sugar/caffeine version of Al Capone. Only… less violent.
Ethan was telling us a few B stories tonight. My favorite was about B telling Ethan how he hit the P.E. teacher last year in the nuts with a line drive while they were playing baseball.
Ethan: What did Mr. N say?
B: (completely deadpan) Mr N said fuck.
————————————
B: I’d make a great teacher. I’d be like, “What were you thinking? You’re a freaking dumbass. Come up here… now everyone, laugh at him. I think we should bring back the dunce cap, I’d be like, “hey moron, go sit in the corner and put on your dunce cap.”

A kid walked into one of the classes wearing round glasses and sporting a messy, dark hairstyle. He casually scratched his neck a few times and looked around the room nervously…
Ethan’s friend: *elbowing Ethan and whispering* Look, Harry Potter on crack.

Alex P. Keaton meets Ferris Bueller. Nice.
And kudos to you for knowing Alex P. Keaton’s middle initial. You’re a superhero if you know what the P stands for.

LOL - I love that your kids know they are blog fodder.
My mom told me this morning that she’s having a shirt made for herself that says “I’m Blog Fodder” Tell Ethan and Katie I’ll send them a pair too.

That kid has a great sense of humor. Not to mention a good business head on his sholders.

DeeJay My kid has a different sense of humor… but it’s cool because I get it. Most of the time. LOL
Joefish OMG… hello! HUGE crush on Michael J. Fox I rarely, if ever, missed an episode of Family Ties and once watched “Back To The Future” at the Drive-In 3x in a row! (Silverado was the 2nd feature)
Miss Ann It’s even more funny when you hear him tell it.
Miss Britt I don’t think Kate pays much attention, but Ethan is well aware, sometimes supplying material intentionally.
Crazy Lady B is hilarious and his intelligence is being wasted… I think. ;)
