The world revolves around...
So Buffy came home yesterday afternoon from her father's house, and Spike and I and all his friends agreed we would NOT tell her about the pool, but would wait to see how long it takes to discover it. Because as a 16 year old girl, if something is not happening in her room or on the computer screen (on the MySpace website to be exact), it does not exist. Spike and friends and I all agree that we could be lounging around in our bathing suits for a week, going in and out the back yard soaking wet, and she still will not notice the 12' pool sitting right there, visible from five different house windows. And so far, so good. In fact, when she came home Spike was having a bbq in the back yard, there are towels and pool toys littering the patio, and four citronella torches lit and surrounding the pool. Buffy came right in, noted the smell of smoke from the torches, and sat down in front of the computer. This morning she got up, got ready for school, made some breakfast in the kitchen which has a window that looks out on the back yard, and then left for summer school. The rest of us are cracking up, knowing it may take until next weekend when she wakes up and has to go looking for us all as we're floating in the pool. We all just hope we're there to see her face when she finally realizes there's been a giant swimming pool sitting right there in her backyard for god-knows-how-many days. Because when you have a 16 year old girl living in your house, you take your enjoyment when you can. Posted by Pischina at June 23, 2008 11:25 AMComments
lol. That's awesome. I have to remember to try stuff like that when Dot is 16 and acting very much like a 16 year old girl. I have been dreading those years but now I know a way to break up the teen angst. Thanks Posted by: Kat at June 23, 2008 8:27 PMHIL-arious!!!
