I was futzing with the radio when an interesting question floated up from the backseat.
Peapod: "Mom, do they sell jet packs at Target?"
Me: "What?"
Peapod: "Do they sell jet packs? At Target?"
I have turned off the radio, as this demands my full attention.
Me: "No, I don't think so, Sweet Pea."
Peapod: "How do you know?"
Me: "Well, uh... Jet packs are for, um, scientists. NASA people. Astronauts! You really can't just buy a jet pack."
Peapod: "But Daddy saw one at the Rose Parade. Where did that guy get one?"
Me: "Um. Not at Target, that's for sure." I have begun to lose composure at this point.
The Edge: "JePaaak! JePaaak!"
Peapod: "Well if you see a jet pack at Target and it's a good price, will you get it for me?"
Me: "You got it, Boo."
