All Hopped Up

...on sugar.

You know that line in How to Lose a Guy in Ten Days? When she says, "I may love you, but I don't have to like you right now!" That's a sentiment I have to fight when my kids have sugar and/or food coloring. I find it extremely unpleasant to be around them when they're sugared out.

(I wonder if it's the same variety of feeling as those parents that just CAN.NOT.WAIT. for their kids to disappear into the public school season.)

It's like sugar and food coloring are an instant lobotomy for my kids. A crackhead with a lobotomy. Strung-out-wild with no sense. And it takes a week for them to come down fully.
