eat five cold worms or one warm worm?
have balloons tied to your wrist or bells tied to your ankles?
lick the top of a dirty car or the bottom of your shoes?
live in a world where no one cleans up after their dog or in a world where everyone does, but you have to use your bare hands?
when you work with kids, like i do, you gotta find ways to get on their level. and one good way to do that is to be silly. or gross. silly-gross is even better.
kids love silly. and they love gross even more. kids are so zoned out on gross that who needs drugs?
and so it is that i have a deck of cards with questions on them like the ones above. i pull out these cards whenever the conversation starts to lag or if we need some comic relief or if i'm talking to a boy.
if kids love gross, then boys love a gross of gross. there's just no such thing as too much gross for a boy.
(men aren't much different.)
sometimes i think that maybe i need a new job. like when i come out of a disgustingly filthy home where i'm afraid to sit down but when i do, i sit in something wet and warm and i don't know what it is and i'm afraid to ask.
which would i rather do.....be like Jesus or be like me?
