Took The Ex and the kids out to eat and to play. “Play” meaning they go crazy in the Burger King play room and I sit at the table from a safe distance and watch. Afterward, we went to a few stores looking for a replacement cord for The Ex’s laptop. While exiting the last store, My Toes had a complaint. She said that sometimes she doesn’t get to go first and the law says “ladies first.” I tried to convince her that it wasn’t an actual law, just a matter of good manners. It would have been easier to get elected to public office and get the damn law passed. It’s funny how the rolling of eyes and an icy look from a six-year-old girl can stop you harder than a concrete wall.
