Laugh Out Loud - On Spinal Cords and Vegetables

Dialogue from January 10, 2019

"T.K., I need you to come get these vegetables now," Cynthia said in a dangerous an impatient voice.

"Mm-hmm," T.K. replied with his mouth full.

"And stop sitting like that! You're going to have back problems."

"Uh-huh." (He hastily sat upright)

"In fact, I used to sit like that, and the problem that I have now...I'm told I have the spinal cord of a 65-year-old."

(A few titters)

"No, really," Cynthia said. "I'm going to start being serious with you. OK?"

"Mm-hmm."

"OK?"

"OK."

P.S. Cynthia claims to have not meant what she said about her spinal cord. Unfortunately, words cannot be unsaid, her words are already recorded in my journal, and, uhh...I CAN'T FIND MY ERASER!
