So
yesterday when I get home with Alex from swimming, Joe told Alex to check our
office for a surprise. He had found me a copy of Dance Dance Revolution for the
WII and had hooked it up for us. (yay!!)
I say
thanks and inquire to supper.
Joe
starts making excuses.
"I
tried to make pizza but didn't have enough pizza sauce."
He
points to the personal sized pizza cooling on the counter.
"Do
you seriously think that is enough for three kids?"
I got increasingly annoyed as I tried to find
something I could make and have the kids finished eatting in 45
mins.
He
finally breaks off the excuses and owns up.
"I got
caught up and lost track of time."
...
He was
playing Dance Dance Revolution.
...
For
almost an hour.
...
I
burst out laughing.
...
He
points to the sweaty shirt he has on.
