Penguin in the bathtub, yo.

Not much going down on the home front. Ryan's surgery went well, but they had to cut more than they had originally expected, so now he'll have to have this machine hooked up to his back to make sure that it doesn't get infected. It's extremely gross, and with my weak stomach I shouldn't be talking about this. Thanks to all the well wishes and texts I received. Love you all.

Now onto the greatest story, I've heard in a long time. There was this extremely hyper kid today at work. Like I think his mother wanted to kill him. I wanted to look this kid in the eye, and scream, "You should have been aborted." Work retail, and then tell me abortion shouldn't be legalized. But anyway, not the point of the story.

The woman behind this lady and her out of control 5 year old, was like, "You think he's bad? Let me tell you about my friends kid." I'm all ears at this point. This sounds all too good. She goes on to tell me about how this 12 year old boy and his mother went to the Dallas Aquarium, and he somehow got separated from his mother. They called a code Adam (missing child), and had to basically shut down the aquarium until they found this kid. Well several minutes later, they found him covered in mud. He still had his backpack, and for the most part was okay, except for the mud. Well, his mother was furious. She was like, we're going home, you're taking a bath, and you're going to bed early. They get home, and he's in the bathroom taking his bath, all is normal, so she thinks. She goes in to check on this kid, and the kid has STOLEN a PENGUIN and has him in the bathtub with him. When he was missing, he somehow shoved a live penguin into his backpack and hijacked the poor guy. At this point, I'm laughing so hard, I'm almost crying.

It got me thinking. If I were a penguin, and some crazy kid started chasing me, and shoved me into his backpack, I would be making a hell of a lot of noise. Why didn't anyone notice this kid? And how would you not know that your kid has a penguin in the car? There's a kid in the penguin display? Hello, that's gonna turn some heads. That poor penguin. The whole time he's probably thinking, "what the fuck, it's hot." Or he can't move because of the pure shock of getting napped from the aquarium. If I had swindled a penguin from the zoo, my mother would have murdered me. Left me out to die. I don't know if this kid deserves a beaten or some sort of applause. Because that's one amazing story.

Anyway...I just had to share that with someone, because it's great. And still makes me laugh.
