politically, socially, and in every other way incorrect....

as we left the eye doctor this past monday a nice man decided to help us open the door so that the circus that we are could leave with little antics...however, just as this nice man opened the door calvary says, " THAT'S A FAT GUY!" and then he chuckles. as if i, and every other hearing being in the world, didn't hear it the first time, he begins to repeat himself. at this point i turn to shush him with such intensity that if the man didn't for some reason know that calvary was talking about him he would now know without any doubt. i lowered my head in embarrassment and hurried off to my car---and soundproof the world against any other verbal attacks from my cherub faced offenders....once i got everyone in the car i started the lecture on how it is not really very nice to call people fat. calvary generally likes to point out the obvious about people by saying things like, "that's a strong guy." they are not always offensive. so i told him we need to focus on the positive things about people. i said, "we could have said 'that was nice of that man to hold the door for us'".

and calvary, being quick to show me that he has learned from his mistake, said, "or we could say 'that guy likes a lot of food' or 'that guy has a dirty car'."

all i can still do is simply shake my head and start working out.
