Fill 'Er Up

Peter: (flopping onto my bed after a long day at Ikea) Mom, I need to have a little rest.

Me: Are you all out of energy?

Peter: (thinking) Mom, do you know why I have 100 gallons of energy?

Me: Why?

Peter: It's so I can do whatever I want, all the time.

Me: Well, what happened to your energy today?

Peter: (with a "well-isn't-it-obvious" tone of voice) Mom, it fills up in the morning and is empty at night.

I could definitely use 100 gallons of energy.

And here I've been using calories as my unit of energy. No wonder I'm tired!
