The Green Lantern would have worked, too

Sassy and The Bandit have the rest of the week off school for spring break.  And then they have time off next month for spring break.  I don’t get it.  I spend an awful lot of money to send them to a private school for there to be all these days off.  That wasn’t the point of this post.

Since they are off tomorrow, the real St. Patrick’s Day, they were allowed to wear green today instead of their regular uniforms.  I’d pretty much forgotten all about it since I’d planned my green for tomorrow like everyone else in the Western hemisphere.

We pulled into our parking space and jumped out of the car to hurry into school before the bell rang.  I was hustling them onto the lawn when Bandit stopped cold.

“Darn!”  He stomped his little Transformer shod foot.  “I forgot to wear green.”

“Oh well.” I put my hand on his shoulder in an effort to keep him moving and guide him in the direction of his class.  “I’m pretty sure there’s green on your underwear.”  I remember setting out Incredible Hulk drawers for him this morning with the rest of his clothes.

“Bwwwwwaaaahahahahahahahaha!” His face lit up with a big toothy grin, his evil laughter echoing off the brick of the building.  “I’m not wearing any underwear!”

Honestly, I don’t get it.
