Bad dreams

Sparky had a nightmare last night:
See what happens when you watch Men in Black at bedtime (for the first time).

My nightmare? He called for me when he woke up, and I slept through it. Thank goodness his dad doesn't wear earplugs at night.
11 a.m. update: Have received two calls from Sparky from school this morning about missing homework. This has been a horrendous stretch for him. Poor kid. We are back to checking his backpack and homework and the homework hotline and the emailed homework alerts...all with that fine-tooth comb. And making him bring home every last book, folder and paper from his locker until he gets his act together.

What's playing in my headphones right now?
The Authority Song by Mellencamp (one of my favorites). How fitting: "I fight authority, Authority always wins."

Sigh.
