HELL-O Mr. Penguin

Peeing your paints is cool KIDS! said no one ever unless you are Billy Madison. Stay in school kids!!! Why on earth do we sometimes listen to this notion? really stay in school? When was I ever not in school? I really started to ask myself this a few days ago.. I cant remember not being in school(minus the summers). Oh wait yes I can, I was still picking my nose on a regular basis, smelled like a goat, ran around barefoot, and fishing in babbling brooks. I was a bit of a hippy flower child or highly unsupervised as a youth. Then I was forced to conform to the standards of normal society. I don't remember it every being my idea until more recently. If you could some how in your memory pull up a picture/pictures that parents take of their kids at theme parks, family reunions, school plays, and the kids is siting there with the most pained look on their face almost as though they are constipated. That kids has been me the first day of school since the age of 4, yes for the last 20 years that constipated look has been on my face. No I don't have a bowel problem but it more the look of awkward dreaded pain of going back to school. Though like constipation after the first day is over you feel a million times better. I am so glad to be back in school.
