Entry: they didn't do it Tuesday, January 24, 2006



When Josh was in the 7th grade at Lee Jr. High, a couple of his friends got "wrongly accused".  I never got the full story as to what exactly happened, I just know that his group of friends were in an uproar about it.  Whatever it was that they did is irrelevent.  What matters now is the protest that followed.

One of the boys decided to make a t-shirt to wear to school.  It was a plain white t-shirt with various colored permanent marker on the front stating "Kris and Cody are innocent!"  On the back it read, "They didn't do it."  The shirt travelled around to various kids and was worn by just about every member of the seventh grade at one point or another. 

I was doing laundry last night...zoning out and inhaling fresh, warm lint, when I was snapped to attention by a screaming toddler nearby.  That's when I noticed that, yes, I was folding the Kris and Cody shirt once again.  My son is in high school now!  Come on!  Will this ever end? The once loose t-shirt is now small enough to fit on his frame like the rest of the tight emo-wear he owns. 

Did Kris and Cody ever find justice?  Do they appreciate that I and countless other moms have laundered this shirt approximately 827 times?  How long can this t-shirt possibly stay in circulation? 

And the more frightening thought:  which girlfriend will be wearing it to sleep in first? 

God, help me.

Hey
I remember that shirt..I was supposed to make one for myself but I had forgotten, so josh ended up making that one. I'm surprized, as you, to think that it is still around.
Well tell Josh I said hello
