At dinner last night (it was soft taco night, which is a thing at our house):
[assembly of the soft tacos by all]
[hence, very, very quiet.]
[parenthetically: what is the sound of one tortilla folding?]
[a flour tortilla. soft tacos.]
Me: [to running son:] So how's that Chinese poetry class going?
Son: [incredulous.] How do you think? Poetry is stupid.

(Not Chinese poetry, but it's something.)
Bravo Sam, Bravo. If a taco folds and no one is there to eat it, does it still make a sound?
ReplyDeleteAh taco night.
