Yeah, yeah, I know it has been a while but I have been busy.
A short little story, this past Saturday, my younger 2 boys and I went on a short road trip, And I figured out a couple of things.
1. No matter what the volume is set to on the car sound system ( ha, a laugh, i mean cheesy factory cd player) Son2 will crank it louder almost for every song that he likes. I was not allowed to touch the volume, nor alter it from my Dad's choice of music, (country) and we had an 8-track player, (remember those?) complete with the matchbook jammed under the corner to make it work. Plus, the lyrics that are in the songs are not things I would have played around my parents either.
2. Teenage boys never stop eating, even on short car trips, there must be food.
plus, the floor of my car apparently is an appropriate place for trash.
3. Teenage boys can convince their middle-aged father to do things against his common sense, case in point, willingly jump off a 5 metre diving platform, even though the aforementioned middle aged father is scared of heights. ( I will admit that fear aside, it was kind of fun)
4. Son2 while travelling in a car needs to be occupied, or else strange things can happen.
My right hand now has no hair on the back of it, thanks to the boy and a roll of duct tape. Much to his hilarity, my physical pain was his amusement, plus the loss of hair was amusing to him as well.
maybe i should get a cop car that i can trap them in the back of when I travel with them.
