Yesterdays email read;

"Dear Meritt,

For Personal Living Skills and Consumer Science Class Coffeekid has a Clothing Design Book due tomorrow and might need your help to finish this project. Thank You."


(Ok... it didn't read EXACTLY that, but close.)

Me: Coffeekid, what homework do you have tonight?
CK: Uh, just some Math.
Me: And?
CK: Hmmm. Uh, oh yeah! And some art. I have a critique to do and then a couple sketch book drawings to work on. They aren't due yet but I'll get a start.
Me: And?
CK: And?
Me: And!?
Me: (waiting)
Me: What about Consumer Science? Your clothing design book?
CK: Oh yeah! That too, but I'm almost done.
Me: No you're not. Your teacher emailed me today to say it is due tomorrow and that I may need to help you.
CK: HELP me? Why!? I'm almost done! I have all the pictures cut out already!!!! I cut them out in class! She saw me doing it! I only have to glue them on the right page and put the book together.


Later that evening, he lays out his work to prepare his design book.......


Me: CK!~ This book is supposed to be about clothing design.
CK: I know, it is.
Me: But none of your pictures have clothes on! They're all scantily clad females!
CK: They're swimsuits... that's clothes!
Me: Great... the book is on clothing design and none of your models are even wearing clothes. NOW I know why your teacher emailed me that I might want to 'help' a little. :P


In the end, we had fun and laughed a ton. I went online and found more options for "warm colors" "monochromatic" outfits and "trendy" to add to his half naked females and he happily gathered up all the rest of his half naked chicks and announced since they were 'left over' he would just make his own poster collage with them and hang it in his room.
