20 Reasons My 13-Year-Old Is Glaring at Me

I saw a link going around the internet yesterday called Reasons My Son Is Crying, which includes pictures and funny reasons why this cute, little toddler is crying. (I remember those days!)  It inspired me to write my own list, only I no longer have toddlers. I have the next best thing--teenagers!

Here's what I have so far:

#1 Yesterday, I said, "We're going to work on problems that involve combining x's on one side of the equation before undoing the problem to solve for x."

#2 I sang along to a One Direction song.

#3 I attempted to rap with Thrift Shop.

#4 I posted a Shakespearean version of "Thrift Shoppe."

#5 I looked at her when I shouldn't have.

#6 I asked, "What did you think of that book?"

#7 I asked, "Have you done your chores yet today?"

#8 I suggested she take along a jacket to her friend's house.

#9 I said that the boys in One Direction have weird hair.

#10 I touched her shoulder.

#11 I told her her mascara was smeared.

#12 I asked her not to wear a spaghetti strap tank top on an excursion with my great-aunt who is rather prim and proper.

#13 I agreed with her that Adam Levine is really cute.

#14 I bought a black leather jacket, and she has one, too.

#15 I tried to ruffle her hair in an affectionate manner. 

#16 I was dancing along with "Just Dance" on the Wii.

#17  I suggested she go get her shower.

#18 I asked her to wait on going to get her shower because I needed to get mine.

#19 I opened her door at 11am, so we could possibly start school some time before it got dark outside.

#20 And the most egregious: I asked her, "What's wrong?"


And then I saw this link: 46 Reasons Why My 3-Year-Old Might Be Freaking Out.  I had to laugh! There's not much difference between a 3-year-old and a 13-year-old, is there? :D
