Numbers

I was on my work this morning and rethinking yesterday when two funny comments had me laughing again. I thought that I would share them with you.
After work the boys and I took Grandma and Grandpa Hilton to the airport. (Congrats Cameron on your graduation) On the way back home I thought I'd get the boys a simple treat since Mom was off at a party (her fifth Birthday celebration) and we had some time.
Dean is very aware of where we are when we drive and was taken back when I took a different exit off the freeway. He asked where we were and I said Redmond. This is the beginning of "funny" moment #1:

Dean asked, "Redmond 052 or Redmond 053?"
"052", I said.
"Oh, it doesn't look like 052! Wait, wait...I know where we are - we're near the Redmond - Bellevue area" (51st street exit off 520)
"That's right - we are."

For those of you wondering what "052" and "053" means; Redmond has two (actually three) zip codes, 98052 and 98053. I don't know, I thought it was funny and still has me chuckling this morning.

It took only ten minutes for "funny" moment #2 to take place from the other son.
The treat was a small Slurpee from 7-11. For those of you aware of yesterday's weather it was an odd choice, but for .99 I thought it was fine. The boys thought I was awesome...so that is far more valuable for sugar water. On the way home the following took place from Reed:

"I love Slurpee's!" announced Reed.
"What flavor did you get again?" asked Dad.
"Watermelon."
"I'm sure that's a great flavor."
"Ah, Dad?"
"Yes?"
"I don't think Mom would like us drinking this because I think this Slurpee has like 22 grams of sugar in it!"
"Well that's why it's called a treat," I explained.

Where he came up with 22 grams of sugar I don't think I'll ever know...however, between the zip codes and grams of sugar a few memories were created.
