Things Better Left Unsaid

Shut up, you little punk!

Hey, where the hell are you going?

Keep up with the group! AAAAAAGHHHH!

Slow down, motherfucker. We're not running a race.

What the fuck? Where are all of my kids?

Shut up, you stupid cunt. Are you spraying hairspray on your kid's hair?! What the fuck?! We're on a damn bus. Why don't you go fuck yourself with the hairspray can? Hellloooo! I'm choking here! Idiot.

I said "fuck" "stupid cunt" and "motherfucker" ALOT in my head today. I am bowing out of chaperoning for the rest of this year. I'm gonna let someone else worry about my kid the next time.

Highlight of my day: Watching 12 year old boys break into a spontaneous 70's style dance anytime they heard music.

You miss it (or at least we did) when you realize that your children are never going to be 12 again. And that there probably aren't going to be any more kids. It's weird watching things for th last time.

Mike - I'm gonna start tuning out things as they get worse.

Becky - Being around a bunch of 'em made me realize how lucky I am that BB is pretty well behaved.

MCB - Yeah, I do already miss some things that we used to do when the boys were younger. Like being a Power Ranger...I never thought I'd miss being "Pink Ranger".

Debra - Sometimes, my words do come out. But luckily, I was able to tamp them down while I was being a figure of authority!

Patti_Cake - The older the kids get, the harder the chaperoning has been for me. It seems like when they were smaller (and more intimidated by adults) that they listened better.

Bekah - Ha! I may have to post that.

Thomas Vickers - If it was a regular thing wouldn't I become acclimated to it? Or is it an assault on the senses for you every day?

Joey Polanski - Next time I'll take my machine gun also.

Two irritating things on a bus - cell phones and hair spray. Who the hell uses hair spray in this day and age?

Good editing, yo.

I probably would have lost it with the hairspray thing, myself.

They might all have been dead if I had to do that! LOL!

Thomas Vicker - Maybe you should look at a career change. I hear that the postal system is always hiring.

The Phosgene Kid - Hair spray lady was fixing her kid's hair for a cheerleading competition that was being held TWO days later!

Rich Championable - Sometimes I have to say nothing for fear of what would come out of my mouth if I opened it.

OOLOTH - Everyone around me was lucky that they got to see another sunrise.
