Future plans, pt. 2

Well, when I mentioned Jamie's desire to own a purple Audi when he turned 16, I worried that he might not understand the realities of academic pay scales. It seems, however, that he's got a better grasp of the issue than I realized.

He and Sarah were talking about cars and how Jamie wanted one, but that they cost a lot of money. "It's okay," he said, "I'll get a job so I can buy a car Mom." This, as Sarah says, appealed to her Yankee sensibilities, so she asked what kind of job. "Work," he answered. She asked what kind of work and he said, "You know, pre-school work." Duh.
