Issues

One of #1's favorite put downs is to say "You have issues." He said this to #4 in the car on our way home from church today. The conversation that followed went something like this.

#4: No
Dad: Then don't worry about it.
Someone then asked #1 if he knew what it meant.
#1: Yes. (with a duh kind of tone in his voice)
#4: I know what it means...you think I'm stupid!
#1: No, it means you are weird...but you were close!

My intention was to look at it, and then let it go on its slow but merry way. Then I saw a second snail just off of the sidewalk, and I couldn't resist. #1 was pretty sad when Claireford died ( Claireford is named after Cliff and Claire Hu
