Friday Funny

Conversation w/ a parent of a student today:

Parent: They make these vibrators that he likes; his outside therapist uses it with him.
Me: (thinking, do not look at TA or else you'll burst out laughing. Not that my mind is in the gutter or anything.)
Parent: Oh, that didn't sound so good (looks around).
Me and TAs: Burst out laughing, along with parent.
Parent: He likes it around his mouth.
Us: More laughter.
Parent: SOme of them even have smiley faces on them.
TA: Wow, that's even better!
Me: More laughter.

Thankfully, the parent was laughing with us. Not the kind of conversation you'd expect to find in front of a school. We all got a kick out of it.
You probably had to be there. :)

Oh my.....! I am staying on the clean side of this post. Because I'm innocent and niave and have no idea what you are talking about.

Heehee...I guess I should have added that there is a device that speech therapists use that does vibrate and is used to stimulate the oral muscles in a child who has a communication disorder. :)
Still, pretty funny. You have to have a sense of humor in my job, even if that sometimes means having your mind in the gutter.
