Just. Wrong.

Her Highness: Daddy, why's your hair so sparkly?
RxMan: Well, 'cause I'm getting old.
Her Highness: I don't want you to DIE!

Besides the fact this was a mad funny conversation, why is it my husband will become distinguished as his black hair turns silver? If he chooses go the full monty and shave his head, it is now sexy and cool. My hair will become dull, gray, limp and thin. Of course, I have vowed to spend $100 every six weeks so this NEVER happens but, still....

I'm just sayin'...

Begging for Candy?

My mother relayed a conversation she had with my eight year- old niece regarding trick-or-treating and I found it amusing.

Mom: Beggar's Night is tomorrow at the mall.
Niece: What does that mean?
Mom: Well, that is what they used to call trick-or-treating.
Niece: (puzzled) Why?
Mom: Well, I guess because the kids go door to door "begging" for candy.
Niece: (horrified) Well, I don't beg for anything and I'm not doing that!!!!

But, of course, she did.
