“Mom can you take a quick look in this book…I can’t seem to find what I am looking for in the one I am reading. I am kind of in a hurry, I feel a poop coming along, and I would really like to figure out a few things before that happens! Please just take the book and give it a quick scan…any new information will help. There’s a lot to learn at this age, and reading is hard…so a narrative summary would be helpful. Wait…oh, false alarm…thought I was pooping. The one I am reading now has some interesting passages from a guy named Einstein referring to some relative named Theory…is he an uncle? There’s much more, but I haven’t quite picked up basic math so I am struggling with his calculations…fascinating material though. My limited comprehension and vocabulary are slowing me down too…I only know about 200 words and really only understand about half them. Seriously though, just a quick look…here take it. I know you can read my mind so quit looking at me with that puzzled smile…read woman! Crap…oh-oh…for real this time, I just pooped the 2 cups of blueberries I had for breakfast. Ya, you can smell it…sucks to be you, ha ha ha. AND just for the record, since I didn’t get to finish my book, I am going to scream to high heaven while you’re changing my diaper…and if I get my hands on that shit I am going to start finger painting with it. I am just saying…don’t hate the player, hate the game.”
