The Weekend Report by Tommy

 Last weekend we goed to Six Flags, which is better than Disneyland.  My mama says that’s good because it’s cheaper and closer to our house.  I was brave of all the rides.  I like the Scat –A-Bout the best, that ride is very funny and fast.  Me and Deb laughed the whole time, and I slided into her on the seat a lot, even though I held on tight. I did that ride five times, and it was my most favorite.  When I rode it with my mommy she laughed so hard she cried.   She does that sometimes.  I goed on the roller coaster six times.  We got splashded by Shouka the whale and I saw dolphins and sea lions.  I didn’t get picked to pet the sea lions. My mama says it’s because I am too little, but I am not little, I’m big. 

My mommy and mama and our fun friend Deb saw somebody named Sean Penn when we were leaving the park on Sunday.  Deb said a word I’m not supposed to say, but I pretended I didn’t hear.  My Mommy pushed my stroller faster than usual but I still heard it. I was pretty tired after all those rides so I didn’t ask what it means.  I’ll save it for later, when I want to be really mad about something.  I think you say it when you are mad or surprised, Devil K. Fulkalowsky, as I call her, said it like this:  No F&^*-ing Way! Really loud, so I knew it was important.  When grownups are loud and say bad words, that’s a big deal.  Deb is fun, she will do all the rides with me, and she calls me Mr. Tommy, which makes me feel like a big kid.  I am going to bring her next time when I go back to Six Flags tomorrow. 

I ate a yummy Churro at Six Flags.  Disneyland Churros are the best, then Six Flags, then those kind my Mama buys from the lady at her work.  Costco Churros are not so great, they are twisty and not the same as a regular kind of Churro, but they are okay if it’s between that and a real dinner, I’ll tell you that. My mommy wants me to eat things like chicken and dumplings, and I keep having to remind her that my food can not touch.   My mommy and mama do understand that when you go to an amusement park you gotta have a Churro. 

We goed to Fran Sancisco, and my mama got a big bread bowl of clam chowder.  They even took a picture of it, which was silly.  After I bit the heads off all of my chicken dinosaurs I was ready to see the aquarium.  My favorite part was when the diver tried to wake up the octopus, but he just still stayed sleeping.  After the aquarium I rode the round ride with the horses that go up and down, but after that roller coaster and Scat-A-Bout a round ride is kind of boring.  The Churro by the round ride was good, better than Costco but not as good as Disneyland. 

After we went back to the car, I was really tired.  I couldn’t sleep though because my mommy hit every curb in that parking garage, and my mama and Devil K. were laughing at her.  Mommy kept saying, “Hold on! Hold on! This time I’m not gonna hit it!”  Still she bounced the car like a roller coaster. It was fun.  Then she almost ran into a car on the street, then she almost hit people, then my uncle who has a red car that we were following around made Mommy drive all over Fran Sancisco and my mama said, “Why don’t we go to all the stores?  Every single store in this Godforsaken shopping mall.”  My mommy was laughing so hard she was crying again, but we weren’t at the mall we were just still in the car, so I didn’t know why she was laughing.  I think my mommy might be the least stable of my two parents, and when it comes time for me to get a car you know I will be asking my Mama.  Mommy will probably tell me all about how the roads are dangerous and she’s not sure I’m ready, but Mama will teach me to drive. I’m only 4, but I am ready.  I am sick of this car seat, let me tell you. 

I have to go to sleep now, but I had the most fun time on my trip.

  • Dear Tommy,

    You sound like you had a great time on vacation. That is what summers are for. You might be only 4 years old, but you sure understand your mommies. FYI-crazy laughing/crying mommies are the best because they will ALWAYS be fun to go places with. Perhaps you are right about mama, she is probably a better driver. Pay attention to her when she drives and someday she may take you out on a dirt road and let you practice driving. Be sure to live the other mommy at home (shhh and don’t tell her you did it because she may cry for REAL).
    Thanks for sharing your story, little man.
