ME: someone is trying to get me to watch "Fargo" on TV.
K: Isn't that about wolves? And the wilderness?
ME: No... there's a movie called Fargo with Steve Buscemi but it's not about wolves.
K: Yes! That book, it's a classic, about wolves!
ME (thinking really hard): You mean Call of the Wild?
K: YES! Is it written by someone named Fargo?
ME (googles): NO. It's by Jack London.
K: There's something with an "F" about wolves and the wilderness...
ME: You mean White Fang?
K: Possibly.
ME: How is that anywhere close to "Fargo"?
K: There's a book about wolves! I'm going to find it!
Lord Jesus, help this child of mine. Freshman year has clearly stolen her brain.
*smooches...realizing my kids are me all over again*

can you think of anything scarier??
Too funny.
ReplyDeleteTrying to figure how you know these books about wolves though.
I once read a book about wolves...it was called "The 9/11 Commission Report."
