Sissy went to college yesterday.<\/p>\n
Wait, what?! Back up the bus.<\/p>\n
Will do. Now everyone on.<\/p>\n
Just what I said. Sissy went to college yesterday.<\/p>\n
It was for sleepaway basketball camp, but still. It gave me such a sense of panic that it could\u2019ve almost been the real thing.<\/p>\n
We\u2019re not ready for COLLEGE! We haven\u2019t even bought the BUCKET!!\u00a0 You know the bucket.\u00a0 The bucket in which you put all your toiletries so as to easily schlep them to the shower and back to your dorm room.\u00a0 They have cute buckets nowadays.\u00a0 Not the dumb buckets from the hardware store like back in my day.\u00a0 I was really looking forward to buying the bucket together.\u00a0 But the college thing snuck up on us so fast we didn\u2019t have time.<\/em><\/p>\n You know what else we didn\u2019t have time to do? Figure out how I was going to get to college WITH Sissy.\u00a0 This is key because for as long as \u00a0I <\/span>\u00a0she can remember, it\u2019s been \u00a0my<\/span> her plan that I would join her in her dorm room for the first few years of college and sleep in the bottom bunk.\u00a0 No, not the top bunk. The top bunk would be weird, ya weirdo.\u00a0 Bottom bunk says cool, hip mom.\u00a0 Top bunk says complete nut job.\u00a0 And we all know which kind of mom I am.\u00a0 And I only plan to stay for the first two years anyway.\u00a0\u00a0Because then I\u2019ll have to head off to college with Sonny and sleep in his bottom bunk.\u00a0 <\/em><\/p>\n And because I was<\/span> we were so wrapped up in the internal bucket conversation and the what-the-bottom-bunk-says-about-your-mother scenario, Sissy forgot to pack a towel.\u00a0 So now there\u2019s a towel blame storm burning us from college.\u00a0 Hubby replied to Sissy\u2019s towel text string with the wise advice to buy a towel at the snack shop. I think we\u2019re getting college confused with the Jersey Shore. <\/em>Absent towels for sale at the snack shop and money with which to buy one!?\u00a0 Hubby\u2019s suggestion was to use a t-shirt and lots of deodorant.<\/p>\n So, there you have it. Not sure why I was worried about the bucket or who was in the bottom bunk.\u00a0 No one\u2019s gonna notice any of that with whatever crazy business is going down with the t-shirt and deodorant every day.<\/p>\n Yep, I think college is going well for us so far.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Sissy went to college yesterday.
