TAKE THIS ONE WITH YOU TO THE BATHROOM. Mrs. Whinboug gave us a test. One question went: A short story can be read in one BLANK. I turned to my friend Scott. Of course, we weren't supposed to be talking but I was going to tell him, 'one shitting.' I was watching Mrs. Whinboug and at that moment, she looked up and caught my eye. She looked at me as if she already knew what I was about to do. So I forgot about telling Scott and went on with the test. But I didn't catch that I had in that quick nervous moment, accidentally put 'shitting' on the BLANK. Mrs. Whinboug was my favorite of all those old women because she had a sense of humor. The next day she stood by the door and called our names and when we got our test we could walk out. She called my name last and said, 'I think you want to change one of your answers.'
