Huh. Interesting. I'm gonna have to tell her that she's way behind the times.
Yeah, but you're an amateur fry cook and I come from a long line of fry cooks that don't live past 25.

ION, today was the first day of school for my cousin's three-year-old, who needs a little early intervention. There was some miscommunication with the bus company, and he wasn't picked up until my cousin called to find out why they were 45 minutes late. Then, they lost him tonight. Poor cousin was out waiting for him to get off the bus. The bus comes, and he's not on it, and his two neighbor friends were freaking out about how they weren't allowed to let Noodle on the bus with them.
The school had him and was terribly apologetic about the whole mix-up, but still. He's three! You don't lose him! Even for a second!

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!
Eek vw, that's terrifying. Seriously, if it were my kid, that'd be the first AND LAST day at school, at least at that school.

I KNOW! That's what I said to her. But, she's going to give them another day to figure it out. I felt so badly for her, though, because she was already all worked up about sending her baby to school so young. Then all that. Ugh.

I’d be lying if I didn’t say that I miss them all tonight…
We were talking about animals and shoes here yesterday, yes?
LOLcats has something to say about that.
He's three! You don't lose him!
Exactly! That must have been so scary for her.

(Once, in college, I used the phrase "not enough room to swing a cat" and the person I was speaking to not only had never heard it, but she ran off to write it down to repeat to ... whoever.)
That's a dead cat, if you please.
ETA:
Except, wait! I'm correcting myself. The dead cat is what you swing when there's so many of something that you can't swing the dead cat without hitting one. The general space available cat swing may be just as effectively done with a live cat, for all I know.

Much more fun to picture with a live cat, though.
Speaking of cats, mine and my father are getting along famously. It's nice to see (especially since this means he won't kill her for constantly using the carpet as a scratching post).
School starts tomorrow. Fear! Fear and... more fear!
