I get to miss another day of school
Dad took me to Wal Mart
we looked down an aisle that was pink
aisles stocked full of brands
I don't recognize any of it
Dad looks panicked as well
we get pads with flowers
on the box
not that i can tell the difference
they don't seem any different
from the rest
Dad also bought ice cream
and midol
and chocolate
and the newest NSYNC cd
we go to grandmas house
he explained to her what happened
she takes me up in a hug
like a warm bath
after playing in the snow
