gross, gross, gross

So the Encampment Elementary School went caroling to the Senior Center after lunch today. Since I'm in charge of all the carols, I went along. Everything was fine until about day 7 of the 12 Days of Christmas and one of my 2nd graders puked right in front of me. GROSS, GROSS, GROSS. I felt so bad for the kid. But all I could think of was when I was in 1st grade, we did a musical, "A Walk with Mr. Peeps". I was on the "stage" and the other kids were on the risers singing, and I hear this girl go, "UGH! HE PUKED ON ME!" Sure enough, the boy on the risers behind the girl threw up all over her hair, the back of her dress, everything. That's about all I remember of that program, and I don't even remember who the boy and girl were, but 20 years later, that yell of disgust still sticks with me!
