A Conversation...

"Hey Josie," I said while dishing up a bowl of mac and cheese, "how would you like to watch a meteor shower next week?"

"A meteor shower?!  I don't know if that's a good idea."

"Oh," I said stumped. "Why not?"

"I don't really want to go on a rocket ship to the moon."

"Well...I wasn't really thinking of going on a rocket ship.  I was planning on just laying on blankets in Boppa and G's yard."

"But we have to go on a rocket ship to see meteors," he replied patiently as if I were the child.  "And then we'd go to a planet and there would be giant aliens and scary robots."

"Really?"

"No, silly.  I was just kidding about the robots."
