overheard today
between a woman and her (i'm guessing) 6 or so year old son at the food court in the mall.
woman - come on finish up we've got to get to the card store
kid - i dont wanna go to the card store
w - i didn't ask you if you wanted to go to the card store
k - do i get a toy
w - somebody died i have to buy a card
k - then i can get a toy?
w - (somewhat perturbed) don't you think that's a little self centered?
k - ?????
w - well???
k - (tentatively) so i get a toy?
w - (a little more than perturbed) no you don't get a toy. i need to find a card that says "i'm sorry your uncle died and that you're sad but he's living in heaven with God now having a good time"
k - ...
at this point i couldn't listen anymore because i might have gotten up and told the woman she was a moron. period.
btw... got my eyebrows waxed today... gosh am i good looking.
don't be a stranger

Well, that was a wonderful lesson in life and death...
I know her child will remember it always and hold it's valuable lesson close to heart!
(That wasn't too much sarcasm, was it?)
couldn't help but laughing out loud at that..
WOW. She really seemed sincere about it too. ;)

The card she's looking for was actually a "I couldn't help but notice your eyebrows. Hawt. Daaaaaaymn."
I wonder if we could have your eyebrow waxing declared a national holiday?
I would buy up all the Hawt Daaaaaaymn cards and send them all to you signed "wanton waxer".
