Amie, with an "ie".

When I was about 18 months old, mom caught me getting into something I shouldn't have been into. I can't remember exactly what it was, dishes maybe? Anyway, she threatened me and told me to stop, but of course I didn't. She threatened me again, and again, I didn't stop. Finally she said "Amie if you don't get out of that I'm going to spank your bottom!" I turned around, looked her up and down, thought about it, and then said "How hard?"

It's been an ongoing joke growing up...if she asks me to do something and tells me if I don't do it I will be punished, I always come back with "well, what's the punishment?"

I got home from work the other night. It was around 11, everyone was in bed, all the lights were out. I go in the bathroom to wash my face, and I find this taped to the mirror:




I laughed for a good 10 minutes.
