Kids...

Kids have never ceased to amaze me. I realize that in a lot of peoples' eyes I'm still a kid (I'm just turned 23 this month) but those even younger than me always seem to come up with a way to keep me on my toes.

Take the 16 year old girl who called me today. She made a request, I told her I'd play it A.S.A.P. She called a little while later and said "if you don't play it soon, I'll have to spank you. Oh wait, you might enjoy that and it could lead to use getting it on." Somewhat disgusted, I said that I didn't fool around with jail bait. Her response: "In the state of Indiana, I'm legal because the age of consent is 16." Yes, she was serious. Yes, I hung up the phone.

Before you ask, this is not the first time this has happened. Being in radio, I've experienced some strange things with kids. It's nothing for a teenage girl to call in hit on me. I've even had marriage proposals (I doubt, or at least hope, they weren't serious). But never would I even consider actually carrying out such a proposition from a kid. Eeewwwww

Ok, that was sick.

On a better note, I'm really looking forward to tomorrow. Mandie and I are going to dinner and I have a feeling that we're going to have a great time. We were chatting online last night and I think the subject of a portion of our conversation sparked the dream I remember having. See, she's a big fan of Gone With the Wind and we were talking about the movie plus shooting lines from the movie back and forth. Anyway, while I'm sleepin' I find myself in the movie! I'm not an actual charicter, I'm just there. The last thing I remember about it is the big, black maid yelling out "We needs a doctor, I don't know nothin' 'bout birthin' no babies!" I told Mandie about it this afternoon and she seemed to get a kick out of it. I thought it was pretty funny myself.

It's about time for bed. I need to be at the station early to get things finished so I won't be running late tomorrow evening.
