We Got Trouble. Right Here in River City ...

... With a capital "T", which rhymes with "P" ... And that stands for ....

Princess.

(Bet you "Music Man" fans were thinkin' "Pool", eh?)

Princess announced this after school today:
"Mom, I'm not wearing my sandals to school anymore. Only tennis shoes."

(Reluctantly, I bite ...) "Why not?"

HER: "Because, I get wood chips in my sandals when I play shadow tag with the boys."

ME: (gulp) "Shadow tag?"

HER: "Yeah. They try to chase me and step on my shadow. I'm pretty good. They hardly ever catch me."

ME: "And only boys play?"

HER: "No. Boys and ME. The other girls get caught too easily."

Amen, sister. Keep it that way. Tennis shoes it is.

I'm off to buy stock in Nike.
