Can You What???

Scene:  I am in my office (at home) working on lesson plans for school.  I am watching "Buffy the Vampire Slayer" on TV.  
(well- not really watching since I have seen every episode several times- it's more like background sound)  
K and D are in the other room playing.  

K walks in and briefly watches the TV, looks at me and says 

"Mom, can I slay?"

"What?"

"Can I slay?"

"Ummm..."

"You know- can I slay outside in the snow?"

"Oh- can we SLED?  

No- there isn't enough snow"

For a minute I thought I was going to have to explain that slaying is not a viable career option.
