Decided to try a new threat to try to intimidate some obedience from my daughter, since all the old threats have stopped working.

Me. "Katie, knock it off or I'll sell you to the gypsies."

Kate. "Daaaaaaaaad...I don't even know what gypsies are."

Me. "Nomadic Romanians."

Pause.

Kate. "Oh, well that's alright, then."

I had vivid pictures of the "skittle gypsies" as we called them at KCRF in my head as I read this. I have to agree with Katie that nomadic romanians are much less frightening than the gypsies we've had at faire.
So good to see you at camp - your show sounded great! your talents never cease to amaze me!

Wow, I didn't realize that we "skittle" gypsies were a scary bunch. I sure had fun with it. :)
