Oftentimes around the dinner table my family and I quiz each other on either super hero and/or Star Wars trivia. Last night Frank asked Evan, "If Mommy were a Star Wars character, which one would she be?"
I was anticipating Princess Leia or Padme Amidala, at the least, though I'd say I'm more of a Mon Mothma.
What came out of my son's mouth was certainly not what I expected. "Sometimes, Mom, your attitude is like a rancor."
Great. My son occasionally sees me as a rancor, one of the most deadly and poorly-tempered beasties in the Star Wars universe. Not to mention, it isn't exactly easy on the eyes.
I wonder, though, if this idea of his will make him clean his room any quicker or remember to put his dirty clothes in the hamper. Maybe as a reminder I'll just have to say, "Don't make me go all rancor on you."
This could be a good thing.
