Scene from a birthday

[Younger brother walks past room, wearing T-shirt. Plaid pajama bottoms. Bear slippers. Leather football helmet. Ski goggles. He is walking like a cartoon. It is 4 in the afternoon]

Me: What are you wearing?

Him: [Stops and turns abruptly. Puts on corniest grin possible] It's my birthday! And I'm not leaving the house for the rest of the night! So I can wear whatever I want! (thumbs up)

Me: When are your friends getting here?

Him: In an hour or so. [continues cartoon walk]

My little brother turned 13 today. Things stayed about the same.
