Edgy Mama

Boy and best friend, both 5, sitting on the stairs, just out of sight of my desk.

BF: Is there anything cool to play with in your car?

Boy: No. (pause). Except for the driving stuff.

BF: Cool. Let’s go play in your car!

Edgy witch mama, coming around the corner, glowering: There will be NO playing in multi-ton vehicles with engines by five-year-old spazs.

Boy: Well, I guess we can go jump off the roof of the treehouse.

1. fitten

N. A contraction of the phrase “Fat Kitten”, meaning just that. This is a word meaning large, obese, or fat cat; usually refers to a female cat.
