Booger Butt, Esquire
Hello?
Hi Aunt Terri.
Hey Booger Butt! How're things in KC? How's school?
School's okay. Guess what I want to be when I grow up?
Um, I don't know...a burden on society?
Silence.
Sorry, honey, I was just kidding. Give me a hint.
It starts with the letter 'L.'
Hmm, let me think. A lion tamer?
Noooooo!
Okay, ummmm, a llama breeder?
C'mon...really guess!!
I am really guessing!! How about a lima bean farmer?
Aunt Terrrriiiii!! A real guess!
Librarian? Lumberjack? Linebacker? Lemon grower? Lighthouse operator?
Sigh.
Okay, I'll guess seriously now, I promise. Lawyer?
Yes!! I want to be a Prosecuter.
That's great, kiddo! I can see it now, 'Booger Butt, Attorney at Law.'
Aunt Terri, you can't call me Booger Butt when I'm a lawyer!
Oh yeah? Says who?
Says me!
What are you gonna do, sue me?
Maybe.
Whoa, hold up there kid! Okay, make you a deal...when you graduate law school, I'll stop calling you Booger Butt.
Promise?
Promise. You'll be an adult by then and I guess 'Booger Butt' would be too childish. How about something more grown up, like Mr. Booger Butt? Sir Booger Butt? Wait, I've got it: Booger Butt, Esquire.
Sigh. You're weird, Aunt Terri.
You don't know the half of it, sweetheart. But you love me anyway.
Yeah, but you're still weird.

Lawyer?
Hmmmm. Maybe I should talk him out of it.
Thanks for the visit, Aunt Terri. ;)
Okay, I tried to make fun, now I am hopelessly smitten.
Maybe its just my meds but I like you.
Jason: Well, he's only 12, so my guess is, he'll go through a dozen more career wishes in the next month. :)
Garrett: Aww, thanks babe. But don't let being smitten stop you from making fun. Sarcasm makes the world go 'round.
Cute. sounds so much like convos i have with my nieces and nephew.
My 16 year old neice is going to be a farmer.
To make tons of money.
I think she should be a lawyer because she's halfway got my sister and I convinced that she's smarter than we are. I hate that.
