At first I thought it was dirt, and kept asking him to wash his face. When I clued in that it was something else, I asked him if he had gotten hit by something. He looked puzzled and ran into the bathroom to look and then I heard the thrill and laughter in his voice as he called out "it was the vacuum!' ... Oh yeah, I heard a lot of giggling while he was cleaning up the boot room... His big sis was not too impressed that her friends would be asking where her little brother got his hickey. It doesn't help that she is already mortified by the coonskin hat he insists on wearing to school everyday- which only encourages him, of course. Next week he might be adding some a buckskin shirt... I'd be ok with that, as long as he doesn't start playing with our industrial shop vacuum...

Eh, not so strange.
My little brother used to haul out the vacuum with the sole intention of mortifying me in front of my friends.
Totally worked, too. Bonus - made my mom cringe as well!
I'm surprised my ds never thought of that!
Now we used to use the vacuum to give us a new doo...but we never went there.
I'm guessing there are some others at school that will think that his actions we not so abnormal. :)
It's the age....it got to be!
