Yesterday was Day Two of a headache that just would not go away, keep that in mind... it made me a bit "on edge".

Molly and i were getting ready for a trip to a "Splash Park". She was very anxious to get going! I told her to go get her bathing suit on while I picked out a sun dress for her to wear over it, and then we would go outside to put on sunscreen. I decided it would be a good idea to go to the bathroom while Molly put on her swim suit, no problem. When I came out of the bathroom the first thing I did was yell for Molly to see how she was doing with the whole swim suit thing, when the phone rang. It was my Mom, and here is how the conversation went from HER side of things:
MOM: Whatcha doin'?
ME: Just looking for Molly...
MOM: What do you MEAN, 'Looking For Molly'?
ME: I - I don't even know how to... I can't find Molly, I don't know where she is, so I'm looking for her?
MOM: OH MY GOD! Brian, are you kidding me?
ME: NO! Mom, she's... it's okay, really! She's just... there she is, I found her. SO how can I help *you*?
MOM: Oh... okay... well I was...

At this point I kind of tuned out my Mom because I had found Molly, sitting in our front yard covering herself in about a gallon of sunscreen and lawn clippings, her body covered in sun screen thick like shaving cream and spraying more on)

ME: Oh my... MOLLY, NO! You don't need that much! I... okay, sorry Mom, what were you saying?
MOM: Is everything all right?
ME: Yeah, everything is okay, I just - MOLLY!

(Molly continued to spray on more sun screen)

ME: Yeah, uhm, Mom? Yeah, tomorrow is fine! I'll talk to you later! I gotta go!


My poor mom... I don't know what she thought was going on!

When you said Day Two of a headache that won't go away it made me think about my headache that wouldn't go away for six days. Of course that's when they diagnosed me with high blood pressure. :)

Well then maybe I should go and sit in the little blood pressure machine at the drug store, see what's up?

That, I think, might be a good idea...

Sounds like my last phone call with my Mom. She knows I have horrible reception in my house but refuses to call the house phone. Disjointed confusion, huzzah!

Well, at least you don't have to worry about Molly getting a sunburn.
