A list of things my son requested on his sick day

Connor came home from preschool last night with a 100 degree temperature. That meant, of course, that he got to enjoy an all-expenses paid trip to the living room couch. Sure, the trip was earned - he slept from five at night through to 7:30 the next morning, with only an hour-long spat of writing around in bed kicking my wife and I at 3 AM.  But having a fever at night's end, as any parent knows, meant Connor would wake fever-free, ready for a fun-filled day off from school. And after that much rest, his neediness was off the charts - mostly because he knew he could play me like a kid at Chuck E Cheese with a bucket of tokens (if you've never been, well, don't go - but for reference, it's like a Deadhead winning the lottery and going to Amsterdam... But I digress).

But what did he ask for? Here's but a partial list:

• Can I have some juice?
• I would like eggs. 
• No, wait - French toast.  
• No - eggs and French toast.
• Read me a story.
• Can I watch an episode of Super Why!?
• I want another episode of Super Why!
• Let's play legos.
• No more legos - can we play trains?
• Can we go to the playground?
• Can you read another story?
• Can I have another episode of Super Why!? Please?
• For lunch I want peanut butter and jelly.
• No wait - tacos
• No wait - hot dogs!
• Can I watch Curious George? No? How about Super Why!?
• Naptime? Why? Can I stay up?
• Can I read a story?
• Can i write a story?
• Hey, remember that episode of Super Why!?  Why didn't I get that?
• I want Claire out of my room.
• I want to lay by myself. 
• I want to go back to the playground.
• Ooh, Little League tryouts - can I play?
• Why am I too young? I want to be six. 
• Ooh, I know what I want - an episode of Super Why!
• I want pulled pork for dinner.
• Asparagus or spinach? Asparagus, please. 
• I don't want pulled pork and asparagus.  Macaroni and cheese, please.
• I finished my dinner. Can I have ice cream?
• No - a cupcake.
• No, a cupcake and ice cream.
• Um, is it too late for some Super Why!?
