Spoken in the Mutant Family Household
13-year-old daughter: “I’m confused about if I want to trick-or-treat.”
Me: “Are you thinking you’re a little old?”
Her: “Yeah.”
Me: “Is it just the candy you want?
Her, cheshire cat smile: “Yeeeesssss.”
Me: “Because we can just give you $10 to go buy the candy you want instead of having to go house to house.”
Her: “Yes! Let’s do that!”

Me: “I feel really lucky you’re my kids’ dad.”
Pause.
Me: “Besides the genetic thing, I mean.”

Me to husband: “For the record, MRSA puss draining is both disgusting and fascinating.”
Husband: “Are you trying to turn me on?”
Me: “Is it working?”

Best quote from my daugther, ever.
“When you die you’ll take a nap forever. Don’t be boring.”

Daughter: “Girls can do anything Gage can do.”
Gage: “But I can barely do anything I do.”

Set up: Daughter loves make-up:
Friend to me: “Did you show her the Bobbie Brown story on TV?”
Me: “Yes, but she left in the middle of it to put on her make-up.”
Daughter: “I was inspired.”

Daughter says Obsessive instead of Addictive
Her: “I’m so obsessive to airheads.”
Me: “You mean they’re addicting or you’re addicted.”
Her: “I’m obsessive addicted.”
