As if the parking lot wasn't a bad enough ordeal.
I am there because we are out of Ovaltine. My boys favorite before bed drink. I have done the floured specialty malts with sucess but he still favors the O.
There I am pushing my cart, child in the seat, and desparately negotiating the aisles full of the "grazing cattle".
Now, I can tell this child to "Stop" a hundred times in sucession and he hears not a word but, just once under my breath, I mutter "****ing people get out of the way" and this child hears every word with perfect clarity and Memorex like pronunciation.
"Phhhhuck-ing peoples out of the way, Dadah?" he says repetatively with a volume that even the intercoms could not produce.
Classic I tell ya'
Hearing these words from a 2 year old spoken with an inquisitive inflection.
It took everything in me to keep from a bellowing laughing in front of him as I proceded to find ANY word that sounded similar to change his questionings
