We are driving to gymnastics class.
Nina: Where are we?
Mommy: We're on Antioch Street and 149th Street.
Nina: Antioch?
Mommy: Yes.
Nina: Where are we now?
Mommy: Uh... 148th Street.
Nina: Where are we now?
Mommy: 147th Street.
Nina: Where are we now?
Mommy: 146th Street.(Repeat this exchange until 141st Street)
Nina: Where are we now?
Mommy: Nina, I am not answering you anymore. We are almost there. Stop asking me.
Nina: Where are we now?
Mommy: ...
Nina: WHERE ARE WE NOW??
Mommy: ...
Nina: You aren't paying attention to me!
Mommy: I told you I am not answering that question anymore.
Nina: Wherearewewherearewewherearewewherearewe....
Mommy: Please stop, you are making me crazy!
Nina: *laughing uncontrollably* Where are we now?
Then several things happened at once. My blood pressure shot up, my brain gave itself a lobotomy, I realized I was speeding, and I noticed a police officer with a radar gun on the side of the road.
My first thought as the officer walked to my car was "maybe she will arrest me and I will get some quiet alone time." No such luck.
On the ticket there is no place to plead "guilty by reason of insanity."
