Who Gives a Damn?

The uninteresting ramblings of a wife, mother and secretary

Aim low to avoid disappointment

Last night sitting around the dinner table Daddy asked Bonnie what she wants to be when she grows up. The conversation went something like this….

Daddy: What do you want to be when you grow up?
Bonnie: A butterfly.
Me: I don’t think you’ll be paid very much to be a butterfly.
Daddy: Do you want to be a teacher?
Bonnie: No!
Daddy: A nurse?
Bonnie: No!
Daddy: A doctor?
Bonnie: No!
Me: A fireman?
Bonnie: No!
Daddy: Looks at me and says “she’ll probably end up working at McDonalds”
Bonnie: Eyes light up, big smile… “THAT’S IT, THAT’S WHAT I WANT TO DO!”

I guess its only logical since she is growing the burgers herself!
