Chaperone

I served as a chaperone for a middle school field trip to Oak Brook today. We enjoyed a performance of Curtains. Excellent. Eight hours in the charter bus - not so excellent. Anyway, one of the highlights of the afternoon was when a student walked up to me and asked, "Mrs. Rachel's mom, can you tell me where I can buy concessions during the inter course?"

I'm certain he meant intermission.

Way too funny.

On a slightly related note, our seventh graders are considering a walk-out protest of the fact that we didn't take them on a field trip this year. They forgot that time we took them to the theater to see a live version of "A Christmas Carol." If we'd had an intermission like yours, it might be a different story.
