March 12, 2008 Trying to catch some Z’s.

Brianna has to be at work BEFORE the butt-crack of dawn, and since she doesn’t have her drivers license or a car yet I get to take her. This morning she was driving. I was sitting in the passenger seat, entertaining her with my early morning jabbering. We came upon an opossum in the road. It wasn’t moving but just laying there. I said "He’s tired. Taking a nap." I paused, then said, "Really really tired."

Brianna didn’t miss a beat. She said "Dead tired."

Early morning car rides are the best for awful, slapstick humor.
