Aunt Mandy is missing

Ms. Swamp is back.

Today I had to be the mean Aunt. It's never fun to have to tell the 17 year olds they can't shoot bottle rockets and put fire works in Jones bottles in the back yard in the middle of September.
"Why, can't we?" "They won't make any noise." "Don't be so uptight, my dad's a cop. We won't get caught." "It's not illegal that's just what you think."

Really, feel free to take the fireworks to your house then. Maybe you can talk your dad into shooting them off with you. Seems like there is a reason you are hanging out here where there are no parents home. Only the cool aunt who will let us do anything.
