Kids?

So, today I woke up at 5:30 in the morning, and thought, "Huh, I slept through work. Whatever, if they didn't call me then fuck them." I got up, grabbed a pair of pants, and went out to check the mail, because its 5:30 at night, and the mail comes around 12:00.

I step outside, and my house is practically swarmed with children.

I blink, and for a moment, i am speachless. This is because I have this fear of children in groups, probably stemming from the nightmares I had after reading "Lord of the Flies". That's not a joke.

"What the hell are you doing outside of my house?" I ask them.

"Uh, waiting for the school bus." One answered.

I blinked again, and went back inside to check my cell phone clock.

5:45 AM.

Fuck.
