Sporadically I look at my children and wonder where on Earth they came from.
They have unusual interests that I can’t relate to, they have opinions that don’t align with anyone else in the family, and absolutely they can be rather dense. I consider myself to be a fairly logical and intelligent human, so it is constantly shocking when my offSpringtime prove their idiocracy to me. Recently, this was the case when my oldest child decided she could bring illicit substances into our apartment and conceal it from me. Nice try, but you are not that smart. I noticed that something was wrong one afternoon when I heard of the central heating and cooling system making more noise than usual. It seems like the air conditioning system was struggling to efficiently transport our indoor air through the ductwork as usual. Every room seems like it had more high-powered air conditioning blowing through the vents, but the A/C unit sounded like it was struggling at the same time. I was walking through our house, trying to figure out what was going on with the central cooling system when I opened my son’s door. Immediately, a wall of boiling and humid air greeted me inside her family room. I walked over to the air vent and found it completely obstructed up with pillows from the outside. When I removed the fluffy obstacles from in front of the air vent, the pungent stink of weed right away filled my nostrils, but clearly, my child had hidden her smoking supplies inside of the air vents and obstructed the opening to the ductwork to suppress the smell. I have no idea why she thought this was a relaxing solution, considering how unpleasantly boiling and humid it was in her family room. At least her stupidity makes it easy to catch him in the act.
