It was a cold night and we were basically hanging out eating candy.

8-year-old: Wait, is today Friday or Saturday?

Me: Friday

8-year-old: Darn it. Friday is my least favorite day.

Me: Why in the world do you not like Fridays?!

Her 11-year-old brother, all the wiser: She doesn't like Fridays because it's the last day of school for the week. She's that kind of child.

Me: Do you like Fridays?

11-year-old: I LIVE for Fridays! *slams down handheld video game console, finally looking at me* The whole entire day I just stare at the clock thinking I'm not going to make it.
