My Neck Hurts
Some where as a child I learned a behavior. Maybe it was something my father did. Maybe I saw it on some 1960's sitcom. I really don't know, but when ever I experience a frustrating or stupid action by other people I shake my head back and forth like I'm saying no. And you know what? My neck hurts!
I am the father of twin teenagers, both almost ready to drive. My kids are no different than any other teens. They are wonderful, bright, golden hearted young adults. But, they are teens.
If you have a teen in your house, you shake your head a lot.
If you have a teen in your house:
1. You will never be able to find anything.
2. You will reach for some toilet paper and find there is none.
3. You will be awakened one hour after falling asleep to sign a paper needed for a field trip the next day.
4. You will NEVER get the last Oreo.
5. You will constantly be turning off lights, televisions, radios even if your teen is an ecology aware student. |
6. You will burn lots of gas for trips to the crafts store for a project that is due tomorrow. Did I mention ecology aware?
7. You will wonder just what the heck they used your toothbrush on and why?
8. You will find your dog shaved.
9. You will find your other dog shaved.
10. You will not be able to figure out what that smell is.
11. You will be perceived as stupid for about eight years.
12. You will have to repaint the bathroom to the original color.
14. You will NEVER have ANY cash.
That is all I have room for now. You know there is much more. So, I shake my head a lot and yes my neck hurts. A lot!
Oh, actually you can have the last Oreo. You have to put the bag on the top self, in the back of the pantry, inside the box that the food processor came in. . . ahhhh, darn it, now I have to find a new hiding place! |
