On Monday, Julie and I took the kids to daycare so we could live a day in the throes of childless debauchery, a spiral of destructive, overindulgent behavior glorified by the dumbest rappers. I'm pretty sure Lorde's writing a song about us as we speak. It's called "Ceiling Fan Shopping in the Suburbs."
Later, we picked up the kids and found Rowan in the midst of a significant wardrobe malfunction.
"Nice legs, buddy."
"Yeah. I don't have any pants on."
"Indeed."
"Yeah. I peed on dem at nap time."
"Got it."
A teacher walked over. "He just woke up. And he doesn't have any backup pants in his locker, so I was about to put him in these."
Light purple fleece girl pants. I did not smack them out of her hand, but I thought about it. See, here's how they sent him home a couple months ago:
Look again at the photo. Those are capris.
"So, the light purple fleece girl pants are the only option in the communal pants box?"
"Yep."
I glanced at Julie, who then uttered a five-word day-saver. "What about his snow pants?"
Brilliant.
