*me*..wasn't bad.. more work on my assignment, the BIG one, then realised I needed a rubber and do you know there isnt a single one in the house!
*J*..blinks and hugs
*me*..i have two children, both going to school and NO ONE has a rubber..
*J*..Well how old are they?
*me*..15 and 18 and they BOTH draw
*J*..noses.."Remember...I'm in America so people under 18 are not legally allowed to do the kind of stuff that would require rubbers"
*J*..is confused
*J*..What does drawing have to do with rubbers?
*J*..Do you mean an eraser?
*me*..LOL ooops, yes of course, we call them rubbers over here, rub things out 8-)
*J*..smirks.."Well here condoms are called rubbers"
*J*..So I was like..."Wait..why would you expect your kids to have them?"
