So yesterday while driving to gymnastics class for our three subjects, Lu started tell us about a survey that she completed in her Social Studies class. She was shocked that they didn't ask her name but asked her age, sex, and what grade she was in. Apparently she doesn't really understand the statistics aspect of surveys. Another person that doesn't understand surveys is DP. So some of the questions on the survey dealt with driving and drinking, drugs, and weapons. Lu gave the normal answers for a sixth grade girl (hopefully normal answers that is), She has never been in a car with someone drinking. She has never done any drugs. However, she did answer that she has handled a weapon because she has fired a BB gun. Thanks Papi. Now DP decided to weigh in on this and apparently it was on his mind because he continued to discuss it this morning. He stated that he has been in the car with someone drinking because I often drive with a drink in my car. I must point out the drink is diet Coke. He also said that both me and SuperMom do drugs every day. See, we both take allergy medicine and vitamins. Finally, he stated that he has handled many different types of weapons: knives, guns, scissors, rocks, you name it. Knives are at dinner, BB gun with Papi, scissors while cutting something, rocks in the yard. Now I am hoping that the survey has additional words that Lu decided to leave out to shorten her story like "alcohol" as used in "riding with someone drinking alcohol", or "illegal" in "illegal drugs". First I am shocked that Lu left out a detail in her story. She normally tells us things I have no impact in the story, like John's shirt was red when we are talking about John playing baseball. It is also amazing that DP has never let something pass, thus in five years I see the police at my door saying "PhysicsDad, you got some 'splaining to do" as Ricky would say to Lucy. I am just glad that I am good with numbers so it will be easy for me to remember my prison ID. However, I hope with every fiber of my being that I won't have to use my prison purse.
