Gifted Child

Scene:  Bedtime

Jake:  Man, I'm beat!

Mom:  Why?

Jake:  Are you kidding me?  I busted my butt today studying for that test.

Mom:  Um, hold on.  You watched T.V. for, like 45 minutes when you got home from school.

Jake:  Yeah, but I've been totally studying since then.

Mom:  You were also in the bathroom taking a doo for another 45 minutes.

Jake:  (Slight pause)... It's a gift.
