Don't Tell Mom

On Tuesday, I didn't feel like coming to school. I had a great idea; I would trick my mom into thinking I was sick.

I snuck into the bathroom, filled up a BIG plastic bag with hot water and crawled across the ceiling, back to my room. I moaned and I groaned, and I put the hot bag under my pillow.

My mom came into my room and checked my temperature with the thermometer. She thought I had a fever !!!

Then, after a while and after the school bus had left, I told my mom, "I'm feeling better. I'll be on my computer if you need me!"

I sent an e-mail to my best buddy who also did the same trick to his parents. He responded, saying that it had worked for him, too.

We were chatting on MSN when my mom came in, so I quickly shut down all active programs, flopped back in my seat and moaned and groaned.

"Oh, mom," I said, "I am soooooooooo sick." I crawled across the ceiling to my room and went back to bed.

PS I skipped school for real, but shhhhhh, don't tell my mom!!!
