O is now officially a Millenial
Owen really wants the Death Star lego set, which is like 400 bucks and 10 thousand lego pieces. I'm not exactly how/when this happened, but the parental decision was that he could chip away at the price tag by doing chores around the house: vacuuming the basement, maybe some help leaf-raking, etc. He actually seems pretty fired up about this. So of course, no actual chore-doing has taken place but before school this morning, Owen had some extra time so he went into the basement to play a little bit. Julie said "you can only go downstairs if you come up *RIGHT AWAY* when I say it's time to go." So 10 mins later, Julie yells down and Owen charges up the stairs with uncommon alacrity....and says..."Do I get paid for coming up the stairs?"

Oh my word, you've raised a capitalist!!! I do love me some schadenfreude....
Reminds me that I need to send the lad some more brickarms.
wouldn't 'pay for no work' make him a socialist? (you're welcome)
Maybe he wants to work for Lehman Brothers? (you're welcom)
