i don't get it

i babysat yesterday morning. it was raining, so the boys and i stayed inside and built a fort. it kept them somewhat occupied and they worked together instead of fighting.
when their mom came home she yelled at them for having the cushions off of the couch. hello, mom, be glad i found a way to channel your children's excessive energy!
and hello, what's the point of couch cushions if not to build a fort?

Why have three boys if you're not going to let them make forts?

And she so would not have liked me babysitting for her - I always made forts for the kids to sleep in at bedtime. I figured I'd do anything to get them to stay quietly in their rooms.

Instead of telling me to sign in, it says "Choose an identity". Is that new or have I just never noticed it before? At any rate, I feel like I should choose to be Superman or Carmen Sandiego or something.

plus also, she should yell at you too if she's going to yell about that ;) (or should tell you in advance at least if they already knew that and you didn't!)

i think it's always said 'choose an identity.' so yes, charro, we should all choose something more exciting.
