Sweet Baby Becomes A PITA*<\/p>\n
My son\u2019s girlfriend is a lot of fun.<\/p>\n
He says she is a PITA* in most she\u2019s done.<\/p>\n
I would ask him what he meant?<\/p>\n
He said it might be her way to vent.<\/p>\n
She does stuff. Almost like practical jokes.<\/p>\n
She fibs about it then laughs and gloats.<\/p>\n
I thought he was exaggerating some.<\/p>\n
Till I got caught up in some of her fun.<\/p>\n
She got me to try ghost pepper ice cream.<\/p>\n
Just a taste and I darn near screamed.<\/p>\n
It was hotter than Billy be damned.<\/p>\n
I coughed, choked, & my head swam.<\/p>\n
It took an hour to stop the burning.<\/p>\n
My eyes were watering. I was really hurting.<\/p>\n
\u201cSee a PITA*. Now you will believe me.\u201d<\/p>\n
Said my son. Yes,—- now I see.<\/p>\n
She is no longer a sweet baby.<\/p>\n
She is a PITA* & I don\u2019t mean maybe.<\/p>\n
She fussed about it all day.<\/p>\n
Insisted we look at it her way.<\/p>\n
But, my mouth hurt too bad to fall into her trap.<\/p>\n
She is a PITA*, not a sweet baby & that\u2019s that.<\/p>\n
