Me: “Ooh, Troy, look over there. The sky looks so ominous and foreboding. Do you know what those words mean?”
Troy: “No.”
Me: “They mean that it feels like something bad is coming. Something dark.”
Troy: “Like what?”
Me: “I’m not sure. Maybe a gathering of ghosts. You see how the clouds are sort of blurry almost like a thousand ghosts are swirling around. Maybe they’re looking for our house.”
Troy: “Why would they be doing that?”
Me: “To come over for dinner, of course!”
Troy: “Then, why would they be swirling around instead of just going to our house?”
Me: “Maybe they can’t find it. Maybe their GPS is leading them to the wrong place.”
Ghost 1: “So, what does the GPS say?”
Ghost 2: “It’s freaking out. It keeps telling me to take a left turn.”
Ghost 1: “Well, we’re doing that, but if we keep swirling like this, we’re not only going to miss dinner, but some of the ghosts are going to throw up.”
GPS: “In 100 feet, take a left turn. Take a left turn.”
Ghost 2: “We did that already! What else have you got?!”
Ghost 1: “You know that thing can’t actually hear you, right?”
Ghost in the Middle: “Are we there yet?”
Ghost 1: “No!”
Ghost in the Back: “I’m hungry, when are we going to get there?”
Ghost 1: “When we get there!”
GPS: “In 100 feet, take a left turn. Take a left turn.”
Ghost 1: “You better fix that thing. The natives are getting restless.”
Ghost 2: “I’m doing everything I can, but nothing is working!”
Ghost 1: “Did you make sure you have the correct address?”
Ghost 2: “Of course I did! I’m not an idiot!”
Ghost in the Back: “Are we lost?”
Ghost 1: “Why would you think that?”
Ghost in the Back: “Because we’re just flying in circles.”
Ghost 1: “We’re not flying in circles! We’re swirling!”
Ghost in the Middle: “What’s the difference?”
Ghost 1: “That’s it! Both of you to the back of the swirl!”
Ghost in the Middle: “Awww, come on!”
Ghost 2: “Wait a second, isn’t that our host’s car?”
Ghost 1: “Yes! Everyone follow that car! Dinner is back on!”
Troy [giggling]: “That’s hilarious! Ghosts using GPS!”
Me: “Of course…Ghost Positioning System.”
