The Punkin Baby is Sick

Oh no! Not the creepy crud!  I picked The Boy up from the fancy private school this evening and he comes to the car with a friend that I told him years ago was unwelcome in my house.... DA Cooties.  No sir I don't care for that freeloader.  Comes all up in your house uninvited, upsets the routine, makes a mess and doesn't want to leave!  He's dirty, always leaving a trail of bodily fluids and used Kleenex. He's lazy, won't do a thing for himself.  Most significantly, he does not understand the boundaries of personal space!   So sad.  I could tell Spencer didn't want him to follow him to the car... But he couldn't shake that DA
I went immediately  into Granny Clampitt mode and headed the Natural Foods store for Golden Seal and Slippery Elm Bark. At this point The Boy volunteers to stay out from Baseball practice .... this is serious.... Wonder should I call an ambulance?
We end up going to the Little Clinic at Kroger. The 12 year old Nurse Practitioner follows directions well. She does a Rapid Strep and a Rapid Flu-- nothing so dangerous as a mother of a patient whose sister is a nurse... We know everything. Don't let me mess around and check webmd.com,  I'll have them run a test for the Bubonic Plague.
Its just DA Cootie. Simple virus. Rest and fluids.
But you all know the real deal. This is just a cover. Next time you see Spen2 will be after you see WHITE SMOKE! Have you voted today? LOL
