Suffering Child

#10: Waiting an hour at the bookstore for your mom to pick out a sweatshirt (the purple or the white one…)

#9: Trip to Walmart!! Get some snacks and that full-length mirror you should have bought on move-in day.

#8: Listening to your dad talk about the weather (It’s sooo muddy.) (“Look at this rain…it’s INCHES!”)

#7: Awkwardly standing in the middle of your parents and your friends parents making small talk.

#6: Staring at your parents while you wait for your Cool Beans order to be ready (It’s gonna be another 20 minutes.)

#5: Another trip to Walmart!! (You forgot to get hangers.)

#4: Taking 45 minutes to decide on a restaurant.

#3: Playing with your friend’s dog after you finally get away from your parents.

#2: Watching your dad play the football game in the Hogan ballroom.

#1: Waiting another hour for your mom to go back to the bookstore to return the sweatshirt she bought so she can get the one she originally wanted.
