An actual conversation that took place today:
TheChild: When do you think I can get my birthday present from [JaneofAllTrades' parents]?
TheMister: Probably when we go over there after Thanksgiving.
Me: Is it just the present you want, or do you want to actually see Grandma and Grandpa and spend some time with them, since you haven't seen them in a while?
TheChild: Umm.....I don't know. I'd have to think about it.
The Mister and I then looked at each other, mouths agape...speechless. I knew she was a teeny bit spoiled and EXTREMELY present-focused, but I didn't think it was to that level.
Me, a few minutes later: We could probably just drive by my parents' house at around 35 mph and get them to throw her present at us as we drive by. Then I thought, "Then she wouldn't even have to pretend she likes visiting with my parents! She can just get the loot and be on her way!"
Gah.
