THERE AREN'T ENOUGH CAPITALS IN THE WORLD FOR THIS.

ranalore and I ran errands today and then went by my parent's place to say hi and bug them for a little while. Randomly, however, there are two skateboards in the living room.

Me: *as I walk past them* Hey, what's with the boards? Are they Jack's?
Dad: No, Christopher's. We've got them 'cause he's being punished.
Me: Heh.
Dad: We've also keeping his science experiment.
Me: You've got his what?
Dad: Naty found it in his room asked what it was. He said it was a "science experiment." She brought it over here to check.
Me: . . .
Me: Wait! You guys still have it?!
Dad: It's just little. *he holds his hand up, thumb and first finger three or four inches apart*
Me: *turn to mom for some kind of more reasonable answer* ...
Mama: *The world's most innocent expression ever*
Me: I can't believe you're keeping it!
Dad: What?
Me: Oh my god.
Mama: *laughs*
Rana: *has slowly been collapsing from giggles*
Dad: *wanders off to fix a light bulb somewhere*
Mama: *lets me change the subject slightly and completely blowing off what I've just learned*
Me: *omgwtf my parents are insane*

THAT'S RIGHT. MY PARENTS ARE GROWING MARIJUANA IN THE BACK YARD.

Dude, I know this is paranoid of me, and that probably millions of folks do this all the time without disaster striking. After all, millions ride motorcycles without becoming organ donors.

But your folks know that the feds can, and occasionally will, confiscate innocent people's houses because somebody else was growing a few marijuana plants somewhere on the property, right? With a reasonable government running things I wouldn't fret too much, but under the current circumstances they might want to get rid of that little science experiment soonish.

Honestly, I thought the same thing. I mean, seriously, pot? In the backyard? It's like I moved out and my parents have slowly been getting nutty.

And my mom is one of the most paranoid people in the world!


*snort* We'll see if it's still there when I head over for the fourth. Gah. You'd think people almost 60 would be more... I don't know. *laughs* Just more parent-y about the whole thing.

Icon! *LAUGHS*

Yes, yes my parents are nuts. Isn't this kind of thing supposed to work the other way around?

*if only I had a 'zen or stoned?' Koumyou icon...*

Dude, exactly! You're supposed to have the rebellious pot-growing phase before you have kids.

Seriously, I was sitting there thinking, "My husband is a cop. I can't know this!"

Maybe we should buy some weedkiller tomorrow night and bring it with. (pun totally intentional)

Well if your parents need to get rid of it, I can always continue Christopher's research. Haha.
