Again, just checking

Last night it was…

H.o.p.: I have something to ask you, mom. How weird is it to find an alien for the first time in your bathtub?

Me: Very weird.

Today, talking with his Oma on the phone, H.o.p. started crying out, “Oh, daddy, not again! Don’t do it again!” and then would make huge fart sounds on his arm. “Oh, daddy! Not again!” Huge fart sounds.

    I’ve found an alien in my bathtub before, but then realized it was just my over-40 body. :0

    Ah, Jennifer, you are a…chrysalis…a gestating chrysalis…daily new, transforming…traveling Westward…and if the vultures follow, crooning their love songs…well, for a very long time there will always be someone older you can nudge their way. Like me.

    That doesn’t read as humorously as I intended it.
