Batty

The youngest amigo decided to pop out of bed at 6:30. This is half an hour before his alarm clock rings, and usually 40 minutes before he gets up on a typical weekday. So he watched some TV before getting dressed and taking his vitamins. About 15 minutes before he and I were due to leave the house, he asked to play the Wii. I didn't think it was a good idea because it takes a few minutes to start up, and a few minutes to shut down...not much actual playing time.

Son #2 pipes up at this point, and points out that his brother could play the Wii upon arriving home from school. No dice, I say, since he has to work on his report on bats that's due next Wednesday.

"He has to write a report on baseball bats? COOL!"

Not exactly...pallid bats...but we did have a good chuckle.
