Busy Nothings

Some parents want their kids to grow up to be doctors or lawyers or corporation executives or at least some profession that makes a good living. My hubby and I decided months ago to aspire for our baby to have a similarly lucarative, probably equally dishonest, career. We’re hoping for pirate. Great retirement plan, lots of free rum, Carribean cruises whenever we want (despite the rather rough accommodations), I’d get my pick of jewelry for every occasion. simple dress code, and have I mentioned the free rum? Sure, finding a uniform during the year at any time other than Halloween might be a problem, and there’s always the issue of the high on-the-job mortality rate, but thankfully I’m a seamstress and we have a gun range close by for dad to teach his thing. We’ll just have to make swashbuckling part of our homeschool curriculum. Anyway, what better day to let the job training begin than on Talk Like a Pirate day!
