Cover ups need to STAY covered up!!!

Nick almost blew my cover!

Mom, Dad, Nick, and I were waiting around for someone to come back and tell us about my credit score (the reasons for this to come in a later post. Which will have to wait until after I get some pictures for those who will enevitably ask for them), when out of the blue Nick asks

"Mom how do I get a gift certificate off of iTunes?"

My heart dropped. It dropped even farther when she in an accusing voice said

"Why would you ask ME?!?!"

My heart was racing. Usually I'm prepared for these kinds of things but I just was NOT expecting Nick to ask about it. Usually he consults me first or something. Did he do that? NO!!!

He is so dead, I thought to myself. Nick very calmly said, "Well you use iTunes all the time. You know these things."

I looked her straight in the eye and repeated what he said (not as calmly) but I would not look away and the look of accusation on her face lasted just a little two long for my comfort. But I stood my ground!

Fortunately for us she was very sick and very cranky from waiting around for that guy with my credit score and just attributed her reaction to that and not to the laughable (but likely) idea that her children could possibly know about the gift certificates.

But now I have to be more careful with any other gifts I accidently open.
