Friday Funnies

Today seems to have been one of laughs for me.  I can share a little bit, the rest not so much.

So one of my close friends “Joe” has been taking a ceramics class with his daughter “Josie” (names changed to protect the innocent).  Josie’s a high school senior, with a very wise soul and a wonderful abundance of creative talent.  She writes, she draws, she paints, and she’s awesome at sculpting and ceramics and stuff.

Joe is great too, a straightahead kind of guy, with high standards, also very creative but in a more practical and linear way.

Joe says to Josie, how come you keep making stuff and then smashing it all? How come you don’t just use it to cut feet (ceramics term!) and test out glazes or something?

Long pause, Josie looks over the top of her glasses at him and says, That’s right, you came out of the GFD School didn’t you?  Huh? says Joe.  Yup, the Get it Fr**kin Done school.

Real life S**t my (almost) daughter says!

OK, this second one’s purely visual! (and reeaaallly cute).

Have a great weekend everybody, last day of UBC April tomorrow.

P.S. I am participating in the Ultimate Blog Challenge this month – a blog a day if I can.
