Bells Schmells

Megan came into my office at lunch time ... with a friend.

Megan: Mom, we have something to ask you.

Me: No play date today, sorry.

Megan: Wait, just listen, okay?

Me: Okay, but I think we've already talked about this.

Megan: Can you talk to her dad about her coming over to our house after school?

Me: What have I told you about ganging up on me with your friends?

Megan: Huh?

Me: Putting me on the spot in front of your friends?

Asking me IN FRONT OF THEM if they can come over for a play date THAT afternoon???

RING ANY BELLS?!?!?

Megan: Uh, I don't hear any bells, mom.

Ugh.
