My post for Flawed But Authentic is up.
You may not feel like the melancholy flavor over there so here is something a little more a-ha ha, o-ho ho and a couple of la-di-das for you.
At dinner tonight Mason and I were discussing his classes and he said that he likes his consumers ed class.
It’s not CONSUMERS with an S. It’s not plural. It’s CONSUMER ED.
Yes, it is Mom. It’s CONSUMERS. Because there are lots of them. Lots of people who CONSUME.
Honest to God, kid. What are you learning? Have I not taught you well enough? It’s CONSUMER ED.
Ok. It’s like you don’t know anything. Next semester I’m taking PHYSICALS ED.

I know, thank you, I am singing that right now.
That one is just like DRIVER ED, everyone used to say DRIVERS ED. I’m sure its because “there are lots of them.”

Hahaha. Mason cracks me up. He’s a comic.
Hey! How come we never hear about Kennimus anymore? I used to love the quirky conversation exchanges you had with him and shared with us.
He’s alive and well, right?

Physicals Ed? Love it. How about Readings? Languages Arts? We won’t get into Readers’ Workshop and Writers’ Workshop. Those are plural possessive.
