Dusty goes from "artist" to working in a restaurant. I don't have the heart to explain why retail sucks more than eternity in hell. She'll figure it out eventually.

That's so cute. I love the half-mature, half-kid ideas fighting for room in his head.

I wanted to either run a motel or be a gas station guy that pumped the gas. Of course, that was in the day of full service. I think because my brother did that for a while, and he had one of those neat change makers.

Calculus is VERY important for working retail. :D

AJ did, for a long time, want to be the guy who dries off the cars when they come out of the car wash. It's hard to explain the career choices of six-year-olds. RS, I think that sums up AJ to a T. Another example: we walked to school with the boy who lives across the street today. AJ was trying to explain the big bang theory to him. He tuned out about halfway through. "Hey, AJ, noodle doodle head!" he shouted (or something like that), mid-explanation. AJ, who likes to be silly as much as the next kid, if not more so, immediately stopped talking about black holes and started making up the goofiest sounding words he could think of. And if AJ decides to be a clothing store employee, I won't bat an eyelash. At least, not as long as he can get me an employee discount at Barney's.

These kind of career aspirations are not limited to little kids. My father, now 75, has said for years that he wants to be the tarp supervisor at Wrigley Field. He just doesn't want to pull the tarp itself, just supervise. Oh, yeah, and in his spare time, he wants to drive, in his words, "the big rigs."
