what passes for normal (part two)

A couple of weeks ago, my son came home with what looked like orange marker on his arm. We were curious.

me: And why do you have orange marker on your arm?

S.: I was trying to make a wound.

me: A wound.

spouse (simultaneously): Cool! After your homework is done we can work on making it look more authentic.

And here you have it. Pretty gruesome, no? In case you're wondering, it's red food colouring, vaseline and cloves.

Thank you 'y' chromosome.
