Hail to the Queen...

It is hard to believe but I saw the Queen tonight. What's that? No, not the Queen of England. No, not the Queen of my house (hi, honey !!!). Not the rockband Queen. The Queen I speak of tis Jake. No, he hasn't officially become royalty yet but given the fact that I walked in the house tonight to Jake dressed in one of Jenna's princess dresses and a feather boa (always a nice touch, good to accessorize) he is destined to be royalty. OK, maybe just a drag Queen but lets not split hairs.

Do you know what is really sad? I didn't even really react. I told him that he is weird and told him to take it off. I threw up in my mouth a little but was able to keep my wits about me. After all, playing with dolls, dressing up, painting nails, using make-up, being sassy all makes for a great father later in life...........right???........right????

BULLSHIT I say. It makes for a really weird-ass kid, weirder-ass adult, and people like this aren't fathers because guys can't get pregnant.

I know he is young and this is a single incident. He was just playing with his sister...he was just playing with his sister...he was just playing with his sister. I figure I can talk myself into that if I just keep saying it.

At any rate, we have a meeting at Cross-Dressers Anonymous next week. "Hello, my name is Jake and I'm a cross-dresser". "Hello, Jake".

Well, I'm off to bed. Julie has this teddy I like to wear. JUST KIDDING !!! Sicko's...

To lie or not to lie. That is the question...

What is it about being twelve that makes you so much smarter than the rest of the world? So smart and above the incredibly inferior intelligence of older people that you think you can lie and get away with it. And not only get away with it but lie to your face even though the evidence against you puts the smoking gun in your hand. Today I am speaking as one of the "older" and inferior beings.

You might have guessed that Jordan sparked this rant (errrr, I mean blog). He had this assignment that he was supposed to do and had PLENTY of time to do it. Instead, he chose to be a slacker and not do it. That isn't the good part. Julie looked online at Jordan's grades last week to find he had a zero on this assignment (I love the internet). So naturally we asked him about the zero. He replied with his liar face (which results in a scrunched up face and he can no longer speak) "I turned it in for a late grade". "Cool" thought the old people.

So today I looked on the website and saw that the grade was still a zero. I thought to myself "That is odd, this should have updated by now". So I emailed Jordan's teacher and asked what the deal was. She replied by saying that he never turned it in and a note was sent home to sign (which I never received).

At this point I am pissed because this is yet another lie in the LONG list of lies by Jordan. I don't think he knows what the truth is anymore. I got home and gave him a chance to come clean. He lied to my face again. I then showed him the email from his teacher. HE STOOD BY HIS STORY and continued to lie to my face. As of yet, he has not told me the truth. Although not the brightest thing to do, you gotta give him an "A" for effort.

I believe he may have a career in politics. JORDAN FOR PRESIDENT 2021 !!! WOO-HOO !!!
