oops: photo editor makes a boo-boo
i happened to glance at this piece of junk mail on my mother’s coffee table while we were in california. on the surface it seems fine; just another happy kid photo for a local market and their upcoming event.

but, wait… what the… oh noes!

upper left corner = some poor kid in a baseball hat getting a “talking-to!!” i can totally hear her voice in my head, too.
she’s all “no, look at me dylan. do you think it’s funny what you did? do you?”
and he’s all “no…”
and she stoops down to his level and says “i don’t think you understand why this isn’t funny.”
and poor little dylan, or tyler, or zach, is trying as hard as he can to think of the right answer that will get her out of his face.
wish i could time-warp over there to tell him that there’s no right answer and i do guarantee you that whatever he did was TOTALLY funny. i also wish i could know if she ever saw this. i hope he did… and that he has a scrapbook.
