Half what?

I was almost certain today was going to be one of those days that I dumped in the trash and thought, "I hope I never have to relive THIS day again!"

I came out with one gem.

Me: So who is picking you up?

Student: My half stepfather.

Me: Confused look, trying to figure that out.

Me: Oh, your mom's boyfriend?

Student: Yep.

So, just in case you were wondering, mom's boyfriend will from this point on, be called a

"half stepfather."
