daniel dulaney asks the following about this post…

daniel, i thought no one would E-VER ask. you have inspired the very first ever…. foolishnotions video.

here we go…

cam and i had the following conversation on the ride back from school the other day…

cam: “i had to go to the nurse today.”

me: “oh, really? how come?”

cam: “i cut my finger.”

me: “how did you do that?”

cam: (preoccupied) “i’m not sure.”

(short pause)

cam: (a little perplexed) “she said when i got home i should take a shower.”

me: (thinking that was a strange prescription for a cut on the finger) “is that what she said you should do for your finger or did she think you were stinky?”

cam: (as if he had spent a better part of the afternoon contemplating the same question.) “yeah – - you know…. i really don’t know. i took a shower yesterday.”

(silence)

so, i go to pb&j‘s house tonight to pick up their car which they are so kind to let us borrow for the next couple of days. jen is upstairs in bed because her “orange” is giving her grief. bryan says, “she’s awake, go up and say hi”. i climb the stairs and turn the corner to behold jen, tucked tightly in her fluffy bed with the biggest, most gynormous hair curlers i have ever seen in my life stacked like a crown of hoola hoops atop her head! unfortunately, she knows me reeeaaaally well and upon seeing the familiar glimmer of mischief in my eye as i flinched for my iPhone she whipped a pillow out to block my shot and would not put it down until i handed the instrument of her certain humiliation over.

i will forever treasure this mental picture. and now you can too. didn’t even use a mouse. i think i have found my inspiration. what do you think?

i love you soooooo much, jen!!!!
