Green & Red
So, here's the scene that went down yesterday afternoon:
I'm sitting in an elementary school chair that's four sizes too small for my butt, talking up at Zach's teacher, Miss O'Brien. She and Zach had just gone over his report card and performance with me for this past grading period. He did very well, much improved in the behavior department over last time.
Except...
We started talking about St Patty's day and since Miss O'Brien is obviously Irish she said she did not forget to wear green on Tuesday. At which point Zach thought it would be really clever to say:
"My dad wore green...green leather underpants!"
There was an awkward moment of silence as Miss O'Brien looked at me and tried hard not to picture in her mind whether or not this rather embarrassing act of Irish solidarity might actually be true.
Then we all laughed nervously and I silently resolved to strangle Zach later in the day, slowly and at my leisure.

Sorry, but that's hilarious! Way to go Zach...hehe!
Kids don't just make up that stuff.
Zach must have had a good reason to say that. I mean, come on. What 9-year-old comes up with green leather underwear on his own?
I have to say, I believe him.
Where does one make such a purchase, anyway?
Very very funny you guys. There was never any green underwear, leather or otherwise.
It was a thong.
