my 18-year-old son is a heavy sleeper so he has a cd-alarm set on a volume so loud that it practically rattles the windows. this is set at 6:15am. none of the rest of us gets up then, of course. when he spends the night with friends sometimes, actually far too often, he fails to turn off his alarm. this happened 3 times IN A ROW one month ,and, i can' t help it, i found myself taking out the cd, trundling out to the car, putting it under the front wheel, and rolling back and forth a few times. i couldn't help it. it was like a black hole of immaturity; i got sucked into the vortex. on the other hand he did get the message. here's to healthy parenting. <most> of the time i manage it.... oh. OB paddlewise: it drives my daughter CRAZY that my boat is on the mantel. tee hee. kcd kathleen comalli dillon~friend, mom, wife, musician, violinist, writer, ailurophile extraordinaire ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ "We can do no great things; we can only do small things with great love."-Mother Teresa~~"I find a lot of people like chubby 67-year-old girls."-Beverly Sills~~"I care not for a man's religion whose dog and cat are not the better for it."-Abraham Lincoln~~"Prepare to be assimila-----OOOOOoooooo, jelly donuts!"-Homer of Borg~~"I am Boris of Borg.
