She Did It Again!
All right, my daughter just positively has too wicked a sense of humor for an eight year old. See, my mom, dad,the kids, and I all drove down to see Alex in my parent's five seater car. It would have been foolish to take another car when Alex only has one parking spot we can use (and it's impossible to get more close to his apartment). So, when we went out to eat tonight, my daughter ended up on my lap.
Ariana wanted to know if what we did was illegal. I said, probably, although I didn't think that actually it WAS unsafe because I had her in-between my legs and the seatbelt was around us both. "If we stop, the seatbelt should take care of us, I'd think," I told her. My mom, who worries about everything, shook her head. "No, it's just not as safe, really," she insisted.
My daughter's response? Oh yes, yes, she IS a wicked thing:
"I'll be fine. Mom's boobs are like my own air bags!"
Yup. She's my daughter. There is no doubt about it.

Jesus Christ, I hope your daughter doesn't say the wrong thing in front of the wrong person: the humor is great, but I hope discretion comes with it, because some people have no sense of humor, and cut no one slack. I know someone who was almost arrested because of their child's sense of humor. :(
Belting kids in your lap: I once found a lost child. For a bunch of reasons, I finally wound up calling the cops. The kid didn't explicitly know her address (or phone number), but was able to direct us to her house and mom's workplace. The cop had no child seat; I put the kid in my lap, belted her in, and we drove like that. It's probably no comfort if someone gets cited, but there's at least one Durham cop who's ok with it. :)
Gees, Joe! What the hell did the child say? Unless she decides to joke about being molested or abused (two things she'd never do), I can't see how her quips would get her in trouble. My boobs ARE kinda like air bags ;)
well i suppose if you did bruise that airbags/funbags, alex could kiss them better?
You've got the most multipurpose boobs of anyone I know! ;)
LOL @ "multipurpose boobs"
Kids can be freakin' hilarious. Or not. My kids spend the night last night, and as I was taking them back to their Mom's, the youngest reminded me that I had to come over Sunday morning for their easter egg hunt.
"Huh," I murmered half under my breath. "Maybe I'll spend the night tonight and see what happens."
My oldest daughter, sitting in the seat beside me turned to me and said, "Face it, Dad. You're not getting any".
I nearly drove off the road laughing so hard.
Kids...
Apparently if Ari calls them airbags, it is cute but if I say it, I get in trouble...;)
That said, I will assume my duties and kiss them to make them better!!!
Doc T, Kira and I are still into Dnd ;)
We have quite a few 3E books, some 2E, and the original 1E. We also have a few other games (Feng Shui, Retrofutur, Cops) and variant DnD (Arcana Evolved and Iron Heroes).
I was told the child (in the 1st part of my comment) said something about certain substances that may have been (but weren't in actuality) used or possessed in the home of their parent(s) or guardian(s). Come to think of it, I made a similar mistake in the other direction once: I said something at home that (I think) got a teacher in trouble. It was about drugs too, but if she was using them, I didn't know it. D'oh. I was like 9 years old.
Your boobs are much better than air bags. It has to do with the rate of inflation/deflation. :)
The child in the 2nd part -- I should have kept her: I'd'a gotten a pretty penny for her. ;)
Great story, lol! I'm sure she's going to wow her teachers, for her wit is quite advanced for one so young. =o)
Hope you guys are still having a fantastic visit! How much longer will the parents be here?
I think your daughter has a future in future airbag design. Can you imagine how many guys would buy a car if its airbags were shaped like that part of the female anatomy?
On second thought, I can see guys crashing their cars on purpose. Maybe it's not such a good idea after all.
I don't know what is funnier...Ari's comments or the comments that followed.
Hoo hah. Alex: Just call them "bags" and you'll REALLY be in trouble.
Hmm - I'm liking x dell's idea.
Wish my kids could say that...LOL!
I hate to poop on things because it was a funny remark, but I think that if you were to hit somebody/something, your daughter would be crushed between you and the seat belt.
I just gotta meet that girl one day!!
