After The Dance

My daughter shared this precious story with me one day recently..and I wanted to share it with you.

She was picking up her son and his friends at a school dance and as she approached her son who was with his latest female " interest "..... he looked at her with darting eyes and said in a tight voice, "Mom, I left something in the car . You had better go and get it." Of course what he left in the car was his sanity because he appeared to be on a really big emotional high and did not want it to come to an end.

But alas she had to drive a bunch of the boys home and on the way in the car they shared their comments regarding the dance and how they felt. As they say on the T V show Law and Order, the names have been changed to protect the innocent.

* Jake said that he only allows two dances a girl because if he dances anymore than that the girl thinks that he likes her.

* Jack thinks that life sucks. He didn't have any good dances and got stuck all night with Peggy. (poor Peggy.... who will probably one day be a movie star and will not give him the time of the day )

* Scott said that it could have lasted another hour.

* Mike said that he did not even have to go. He just kept checking the basketball scores .

* My daughter's son was already in a trance and could not even comment on his wonderful evening .

See why I say that life is good.

Quote of The Day: Don't take life too seriously. No one makes it out alive anyway.
