Special children

Well what do you know, the school year is almost over.  And I’m $15,000 poorer after paying Asia’s tuition.  Ahem.  Next year she’ll be attending a public school.  So what did we get for 15 large?  Well, she learned this “song”:

I guess we got our money’s worth.  Care to sing along?  Have some lyrics:

I’m goin’ to Kentucky.  I’m goin’ to the fair; to see the Senoritas, with flowers in their hair.  Shake it baby shake it, shake it all you can.  Shake it like a milkshake, and do the best you can.

No, my kids aren’t retarded.  But thanks for your concern.

More flip-house pics…

The clawfoot tub has a rain shower…chicks dig that crap.  In reality, it’s annoying.  Nerd construction-talk alert:  The stone tile is Durango Travertine.  I made the accent tiles out of marble and granite.  The walk-in kitchen pantry is cherry.  It’s 4 feet wide by 8 feet tall on either side…plenty of room for lard, soup, Bisquick, and whatnot.

After the first two lines of that song, the only utterance that even sounded like a word was “vagina” near the end of the fifth line.

At least that wannabe Spicoli knows the right onomateopoeias.

And yeah, what’s the deal with those rain showers?

Asia’s song sounds like something you would’ve written and sung not so long ago with a crappy band at UIC.

Dude! Totally gnarly! That clip makes me want to watch “Fast Times At Ridgemont High.”

At risk of being excommunicated as a chick, I don’t like the rain shower thing. Go figure.

Loooooooooove the tub! And I’m with the other chicks…I don’t like those rain showers either.
I can tell you really put a lot of time into this flip. I am loving the pictures!
