Writing Prompt: An elderly couple takes to petty crime to see their superhero kid who no longer calls

"I just don't think we should do that honey. It's too big." the balding man said as he leaned back in his recliner.

"George, It's really the only thing that'll get his attention right now, he doesn't facetime, he doesn't call, and he answers all his text with just K." the plump lady sits down her glass on the coffee table, reaches down for a notepad and pen.

"Now listen to me, it's very simple. All you have to do is just go back to your job at the plant like you're visiting your buddies and just turn off the coolant system." the woman scribbles on her pad

The old man shakes his head

"That's too much Kimberly, if those reactor coils over heat and the plant melts down half the whole dang state might be evacuated!" George said with look of disbelief

"I now!, He'll have to come right away and since he's in town anyway we can have a nice dinner!" Kimberly finishes writing. 

"Now go grocery shopping for me, you now our boy loves my rice casserole." Kimberly hands George the shopping list.

I struggle sometimes with being open minded. I think everyone does. I have to acknowledge my biases without being walked all over.

Treat people like you would want to be treated.

It's 4:23 in the morning and I am awake and I am not that happy. The world is quiet at least, the sun will be up in a few short hours and I'm guessing I may be sleeping in. Oh well

Hallmark has a card for every occasion. EVERY occasion. You're the person tasked with finding and writing the most obscure ones.

Flossing.. Always flossing. There's only so many ways to congratulate a person on flossing, it's doubly hard when you're talking about a flossing anniversary.

A five years of dilgent flossing should be celebrated I suppose, I cannot complain too much because I am getting my commission on each sale but still. These subjects are dreadful.

What emotion can this card get across about flossing. I just have major writers block. 

"Flossing four five years: Good for you!"

"Happy Flossing Day: Five Years Strong!" 

I just have no idea what it should be and I need to think. I always think better when I floss..
