Deer Eat Grass

My boys, watching the deer out the dining room window this morning:

Son 1: "I wouldn't want to eat a deer, because they eat GRASS!"

Son 2: "People do eat deer, but they take the grass out first, so it's okay."

Cabin Fever

I think there might be a little cabin fever going on in our house. One of the boys just asked if we could please take a drive to England. "We could take a ferry!" he said.

Toilet Paper

So, I'm not normally one to post pictures of toilet paper, but... I went to Walmart, and the shelves were absolutely empty with signs about rationing due to the shortage of toilet paper. Only I don't think there really is one. I went to SAAR's Super Saver to do the rest of my shopping, and the top of every single isle throughout the entire store, and the perimeter of the store was stocked like these pictures with toilet paper. So it would seem to be either a manufactured crisis or a lack of order planning, or combination of both, in my uneducated opinion.

L&I Violation

I was at the L&I office this morning renewing my contractor's license, and they were having trouble with their doors. The door wouldn't stay unlocked, and the ADA accessibility feature was messed up, and we were all laughing about it.

Then I said, "Sounds like a L&I Code Violation to me."

Everyone got dead silent and very serious. Evidently it's not cool to joke about that.
