'Poison Ivy...Not all it's cracked up to be"

A friend of mine told me the best story. I wish I could video tape her and just stick her on here telling it. It would be way better. She tells stories with her hands and her eyes and every once in a while she shares something that seems so absurd I laugh out loud.

When my friend,Kate (we're going to call her that), was a preteen she and her childhood friend decided they had had enough school for their liking. It was the end of the year, they were bored, they wanted an escape from school. Now most normal, not so creative, kids would have faked the flu. Not Kate, Kate takes a more drastic approach. Her plan.....Her approach.....POSION IVY.
