THE NEXT NEW HORROR AT MY HOUSE
I call this the HORROR OF NOW. What's here today might be really awful, but it may well be gone tomorrow. Biting, spitting, kicking the dog, teasing a younger sibling -- they got millions of them. I think we should have a contest and send flowers or a massage certificate to the mom with the Most Annoying Kid of the week. In the '50's, the prize would have been the biggest stick to whack your kid with. While kid whacking is a satisfying dream, a massage would be really nice, or I'd like to go to the movies sometime. Remember the movies? At least that obnoxious behavior is fleeting -- until the next new thing surfaces. Let's celebrate the horror.
I bet you have a horror habit (or two) to share
I'd love to know what new obnoxious behavior has seeped into your house.
