Did you happen to see the Home security video of some California FedEx guy tossing a package with a computer monitor over a guys fence? I guess it's been all over the news and Mark got a lot of flack today from people he delivered to. "you better not throw my package!" and "I'm watching you. You better be careful with my stuff" etc...
He miraculously got home early today and we decided it was a good night to get away from it all for a little while and go on a date.
5:01 pm We pull out of the garage
5:02 pm Almost out of the driveway. My cell phone rings. It's Mason. "Mom, can I have a pumpkin cookie?" Sure. ...click...
5:05 pm 400 N heading to State Street. My cell phone rings. It's Samantha. "Mom, can I have a pumpkin cookie? and also..umm.. Mason!!!?? is that you on the phone. Get off the other phone. He's always doing that mom. He knows I called to tell on him. He called me a TURD!!! He's being so rude.
Mason, are you there?
...... uhhh yeah.
It is very rude to get on the phone when someone else is making a phone call do you understand????
Yes.
Don't do it ever again.
Okay.
And stop the name calling. Do you know what a turd is?
(At this point, Mark is laughing uproariously in the driver's seat)
No
A turd is a piece of poop. You just called your sister a piece of poop. Is that a very nice thing to do?
No.
Don't do it again.
okay. ....click....
5:10 pm It's quiet for a minute while I contemplate an entire evening of the phone ringing. I decide to take charge of my date night destiny and place a call of my own.
Is Rachel there? okay. Rachel, put me on speaker phone and get all the kids around.
Okay mom. just a minute...... okay we're here.
All right, listen up! Dad and I are on a date and we'd like to enjoy our evening out together, this means do NOT call me about cookies, do NOT call me about name calling, do NOT call me about anything at all. NONE of you are allowed to call me except Rachel. Rachel, don't call me unless it's serious. OKAY???!!!!!
okay.
okay.
okay.
okay.
5:12 pm - 6:30pm Adult conversation. aaaahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh........
