The Setting
The master bathroom shower.
(I promise, this is totally G-rated. It's a family blog.)
The Players
Steve, overseeing Andrew's shower before bedtime
Andrew
Andrew: Dad, can I use your soap instead of the kid soap? Then I'll smell like you.
Steve: Sure.
Andrew: Can I use your shampoo, too?
Steve: Well, you can, but if you get any in your eyes, it will really sting.
Andrew (considering): How much?
Steve (knowing Andrew's ridiculously low tolerance for even the barest discomfort to his orbitals): Kind of a lot.
Andrew: OK. I'll use the kid shampoo on my hair. And your soap on my skin. Then I'll smell like half a man and half a boy!
HA! You should submit that to Reader's Digest and win the big bucks. Very funny. (There are people that read the Digest....)
