Rabid About Rabbits

(For my whole life I have had an obsession with rabbits, and my whole family knows it. It was so bad when I was little my Mom couldn’t take me shopping around Easter because I would cry and throw a fit. I have been married for a couple years and am spending the afternoon with my Mom. We have just walked into the store and it is early March.)

Mom: *interrupting me* “No, they don’t want to all come home with you. Don’t even think about it.”
