You know when you are babysitting the kindergarten class pet snake? and you know how when your dog gets out of your yard and you see it across the street out the window and you go "oh shit!" and then you run out to get it? and you know how then you come back and your two year old is standing outside the door where the snake's cage is and your two year old says "snake broken!"? and then you know how you go into that room and say "oh my god! oh shit!" and your five year old says "shit is a bad word!" and you know how you see worms all over the floor and you hear a cricket chirping somewhere in the room and then you see the lid of the snake cage on the floor and your son says "snake broken!" and then you go "jesus christ!" and your five year old says "jesus christ is a bad word!" and you say "no it's not sweetie!" and you scramble to make sure the snake is still in the cage, yell at the two year old to not step on the worms, and your daughter says "is shit a bad word?" and you say "don't ever let me hear you saying that word again...it's a very very bad word and i'll never say it again". isn't that hilarious when that happens? Yeah, it's hilarious. you should have been there. it's even funnier when you don't find the cricket but hear it alllllll night. today's goal: find cricket before darkness.
