12:28 AM Ryan: a written report

  wow

12:30 AM me: Yea

 Ryan: oh now

  well..he loves his

  toys

  he needs to learn how to share

12:31 AM Ryan: did you say anything about it to him?

 me: He does.

  A bit

12:33 AM Ryan: haah

12:37 AM that toy was probably very cool

12:38 AM me: I doubt it

12:44 AM Ryan: huh? I don't know

  I'm interested in hearing more about thts fight

 me: Me too

12:46 AM Ryan: do they have a write-up at the office

  maybe Avi was defending

12:47 AM At that point, he doesn't have to share

  and concede his toy

5 minutes

 Ryan:

1:01 AM everyone at work is talking about my stolen cupcakes

1:02 AM me: You should subpoena the flight manifesto

 Ryan: hahhaha

1:04 AM me: You screwed the pooch on that one

 Ryan: ah well

 me: Sorry ... made love to the pooch

 Ryan: hahaha

  gross

1:05 AM yeah...I guess part of me was mad at myself for buying those cupcakse to begn with

  so...I got what I deserved

 Ryan:

  I've decided that it is our goal, in respecting your heritage, to make that Avinash's style as well

1:12 AM me: C'mon!

  Octopus overalls are cool!

 Ryan: and if we need to use kajal and give him a unibrow, then so be it

1:13 AM every day before school, we need to require him to stretch his socks as high up his leg as possible

  thoughts?

 me: I was thinking Nandini needs a shiny bowl cut

 Ryan: haha

  perfect!

 me: As soon as she grows hair

1:14 AM Ryan: that sounds perfect....might I also add bushy eyebrows

  and nerdy glasses
