Short but Sweet

I've used up entirely too many words in the past couple of days, so this morning I'll keep it short.

I was driving Ryan to school this morning and she was telling me about the new librarian at school. I asked what happened to the old one, who Ryan wasn't terribly fond of (you must understand, when a child talks incessantly, someone whose favorite word is 'Shhhhhhh' isn't going to be a big hit). Anyway, she says, straightfaced, "Oh she retired. She was WAY overdue."
