I'm #1

I'm not normally a paranoid person. But...

The other day I was driving around town with Adrian. He was upset at me for some reason. I'm sure it was something reasonable, like I didn't take him to Sonic, or bowling, or swimming, or Schlitterbahn, or some equally heinous act. I glanced over at him as we were driving down the highway and I swear I thought I saw him giving me the finger. But, surely I was mistaken, right? I mean, I don't use the finger. Jed doesn't use the finger. Nobody we know, really, uses the finger. I thought it MUST be the heat. The heat was making me see things.

Today we were driving around again. I looked over at him and he shot me NOT ONE, but TWO fingers. Yes, my son gave me the double-barrel finger-bang. I smiled at him and said, "Ummmm, sweety! What's that all about?" He let me know that some little girl in his class taught him how to do it. So I asked it what it meant. He replied, "It means you go to time-out".



I'm so proud.

I can't believe you didn't know what it means --EVERBODY knows the middle finger means "time out" ;)

He's too much--takes after one of you I'm sure.

That's funny. I was driving Kristin and her friends the other day when one of them says "What do you get when you cross a bull dog and a shih tzu?" and another one screams out "bullsh*t!"

Thanks for the comments on my blog. Toney and I are from Oklahoma originally. You know we are both from the midwest, both unemployed, both gay dads, both getting involved in the community again after being removed for several decades, both have a love for the food network. I think you are my long lost twin. The question is, are you the evil one?
