We had just stopped at McDonald’s and I was giving them a speech about how we won’t be going out to eat very much because we need to save money. Then after about 30 seconds of quiet driving, my youngest says:

“Dad, when I get older I’ll get a job, okay?”

I laughed so hard. Love it. She’s adorable.

“Flying is hours of sheer boredom, highlighted by moments of sheer terror … [IT is] hours of sheer terror with no boredom.”

How true. ;-)

“You don’t know who is swimming naked until the tide goes out.”

And, this was done on CNBC! Nationally broadcast! I wish I could have seen it live to laugh even harder. I guess I just have a really funny sense of humor. I can just imagine being there to find out who around me is swimming naked. LOL!
