Prompt: Random roll: 3. Urban/Suburban Fantasy and 2. Dogs of the Never Never.
Jon was smart enough to know when to be stupid.
He’d figured out in grade school the main difference between an A student and a C student was a lot more free time. Sure he had to suffer until grownups gave in and lowered their expectations, but for every minute lost listening to lectures about potential he got an hour of time spent however he wanted.
Jon was determined to enjoy life here and now, not sixty years down the road when retirement turned people into the kids they wished they’d been.
Besides, how bad could being ‘average’ really be?
