m conversation

car ride home from school with one of M's friends who is also in her class.

m: You can't come over to my house right now.

friend: why?

m: because we have bugs and they bite you. I had to wash all my dress-ups and put them away. Maybe you could come over when my house is less distracting.

friend: oh okay....(off on another topic)

(I think she meant disaster but one can't be sure. She said it so matter of factly. It sounds a little harsh in writing but it was said in the sweetest M voice)
