Abstract

Years ago, we were at our regular stomping grounds - the McDonald's drive thru - when, after I gave my order from the dollar menu, the voice from the box enthusiastically said, "Happy Holidays!". I mumbled under my breath about the dearth of the "Merry Christmas" salutations when one of my kids who shall remain nameless said quite matter-of-factly, "She's ovulated to say that." Well….that certainly changed the trajectory of the mood in the car.
