My friend Lisa
Quiet frequently I hear stories about the kids that little T goes to school with. There are a few names that get repeated often and because of this I'm starting to feel like I sort of know these kids.
The one I hear about the most is Little Ms. Lisa. At first I kind of thought Little T had a crush on Lisa because I'd hear about her all the time, then I realised it's probably because they sit right next to each other, so he has the most stories to tell about her.
This young lady is an interesting little girl.
A month or so ago, little T and I were sitting in a waiting room for a doctors appointment and Little T decides to randomly tell me that...
"My friend Lisa said she knows a girl who is 6 years old and has a baby."
Well then. After a brief internal battle with myself I decided that saying "Your friend Lisa, Is a liar." Would probably not be the best route to take. Avoiding all the "where babies come from" bits I basically told him that it is pretty much impossible for a 6 year old to have a baby. Problem solved, we moved on, life was good.
I can't exactly remember when, but sometime over the past few weeks of no school, Little T told me more stories about "My friend Lisa."
--A bit of background
Little T has his own computer. He got a new one for Christmas... my old computer (Bacchus) after he (the computer) went through an upgrade. He can pretty much play on his computer whenever he wants, as long as he's not grounded, but in order to get on the computer he needs an adult to enter in a password.
Apparently he's told his friends that he needs a password to get into his computer and it's been the topic of discussion at school...
"My friend Lisa told me that if I wanted to play on my computer when I was grounded and any-time I want I should go into the settings and change the password to my computer."
Oh Really?!? I'm starting to think that "My friend Lisa" is a real trouble maker.
Without telling Little T the Million and One reasons why that would be a horrible idea if he ever wanted to not be grounded again I asked him what he thought of that idea. Luckily, he was not easily convinced, he knew that his dad or I would figure out that something was up and he would get into a heap of trouble.
Rumour has it that "my friend Lisa" was going to be moving in with her dad (about an hour or so away from here) but due to whatever reasons that's either not happening at all or it's getting delayed a bit. Though I feel kind of bad because I've heard she's excited about the prospect of living with her father I'm kind of excited to hear the latest "my friend Lisa" stories when school starts on Monday.
Wow.
What happened to me? The gossip of the 4th grade is interesting to me.
