He woke up at eight thirty. It’s the day I’ve been waiting for all week.

Report Card Day.

He walks into the kitchen, still blurry from sleep.

“Oh honey! Thank God! We thought you were going to sleep forever! We were so worried!” I hug him close.

Huh? He asks, scratching his head.

“Sweetheart,” I pause. “You’ve been asleep for two months. You have school today! You need to shower and eat and get going or you are going to be late!”

What? His eyes grow large. What do you mean? School is out. You said So!

“That was two months ago, you’ve been asleep for two months.”

He looks around. The couches have been moved. But..what about camping? I had a dream..

“We took you with us. You slept the whole time! We even took you to the hospital to see if they could wake you up..”

His eyes are glistening. For a minute, I reconsider. Then I remember all the pranks he has ruined in the last month just by being old enough to know better.

“I’m sorry Rainbow Man, but you need to get in the shower and get ready for school.”

He goes to the shower. Blue Boy wakes up. I quickly brief him on whats going on.

I’m pouring cheerios in a bowl when he returns. Blue Boy! What day is it?

Uhm? is it Tuesday? I don’t know my days yet. I get to go to school now, and learn them.

I smirk. Perfection.

But mom! How can I sleep all summer? How? I would have starved! It’s not school time. You’re lying!

“Phone Nana.” I say, ” She’ll tell you.”

He calls. She asks him if he wants a ride to school. I am close to peeing myself.

Sandals on, hair combed, he reaches for the door handle. His shoulders are drooping, feet dragging, and his eyes are wet with tears.

“Oh, and Rainbow Man, When you get your report card, be sure to hurry home. We’re going to the park today!”

He growls, then smiles, suddenly understanding.

This is the prank he has been watching for all week.

I got an E-Mail six days ago. Let me show it to you.

Dear bluepaintred@gmail.com,

We recently have determined that different computers have logged onto your Online Banking account, and multiple password failures were present before the logons. We now need you to re-confirm your account information to us. If this is not completed by November 7, 2004, we will be forced to suspend your account indefinitely, as it may have been used for fraudulent purposes. We thank you for your cooperation in this manner.

Thank you for your patience in this matter.

Washington Mutual Customer Service

What bothers me so much is not the fact that someone has been accessing my account with a less than stellar password cracker, but that the Washington Mutual Customer Service Peeps have devised a way to go back into the past and delete an account I did not have until June of this year.

Technology these days!

I know its not yet ten, but it has been a very very long and tiring day.

I’m going to bed.

However.

Come Hell or High Water, I Am going to make this.

I found it on this site. She left a comment on the post before this and I am afraid that when she checks her stats she wills see I have gone through roughly fifty pages of her archives. I swear, I am NOT a stalker! Ask anyone. Oh wait. Don’t ask her or her or him or that guy over there in the hat. And for sure don’t ask the naked dude! But anyone else, feel free to ask them!

I’m also storing this away for the next rainy day.

Night all.
