Mushroom Ball

Friday night, not much going on around here. It's quiet. I had plans to play poker but Jim has developed a head cold and is extremely tired. We played poker a couple weeks ago, I lost 5 bucks and Jim 17. We're on a losing streak.

Andrew: Mom can I go to Mushroom Ball with ___ and then stay over at his house?

I was like, "What?!"

I'm thinking all sorts of wild things.

"What is Mushroom Ball?", I ask.

"It's dodge ball on steroids", he says.

I don't get it.

"Your going to take steroids and play dodge ball?" and "Why is it called Mushroom Ball?" "What do mushrooms have to do with it?"

He laughs and explains that no they are not taking 'roids', its just extreme dodge ball and he doesn't know why it's called Mushroom Ball.

And it's at the church.

So he's playing mushroom ball.
