Genetics

I went to the store the other day. I wrote a check to pay, and the cashier asked for my license. I didn't have it with me. My change pouch that holds my ID (and spare change) was at home. So, I ran out of the store, and sped home to get my required ID. Upon returning to the store, I opened my change purse, and then realized....my license was missing! Someone must of stolen it.

Or wait....I remember!

I had gone to the gardens with a friend that day, and had thrown my ID and membership card into the stroller, which was in the back of our van the entire time. So I went all the way home for nothing.

Airhead moments.

And K still turns the wrong way to get to church every Sunday (and Wednesday). We both get lost all of the time, even if we have been there 20 times before. Sometimes we are halfway to someone's house when we realize the dish we were supposed bring is still in the fridge.

He never remembers to take a lunch to work.

I forgot Father's day.

I once preheated an oven that I had stored a giant, cake-sized tupperware in. It took months to get rid of the burnt plastic smell whenever we baked anything. I know....healthy.

I never know people's names (usually because I am not listening when they tell me). It is surprising if I remember who I made plans with (or when or where), and I rarely make it to where I am supposed to be on time. Sorry, everyone.

Let's face it. K and I are somewhat "blonde". (Ok, maybe alot).
Yet, we both loved the academic part of school (after highschool anyway), and we both did really well.
K's blonde moments are not horrible. Mine are not any worse. But the two of us together, in one household, can sometimes prove to be amazingly annoying. We were laughing (and horrified) to think of what our poor kid's have in store for them. Most likely, our kids are genetically inclined to be intellectual airheads.

If they are anything like thier parents in years to come, our kids will readily learn from and enjoy their college classes.....after they find the class schedule (and after they remember to go back to their dorm to get the books they forgot), and if they remember what building their particular class is in.
