Too Much Television

What did Mom always say about that? Too much TV will rot your brain. You know what happens then? The smell of rotten lobes attracts the zombies. It’s like catnip to the undead.

Thus, I will not let Monkey watch TV tonight. Nor did I allow her to plant her posterior in front of it last night. The kid is six but is reading chapter books above her grade level independently yet she’s so lazy she’d rather watch an episode of Wonder Pets that she’s already seen ten times. Oy.

Honestly, if the zombies come calling I may let them nosh on her gray matter regardless of whether it’s past its freshness date or not since she seems determined not to use it anyway.
