Not Again!

I spent yesterday afternoon in a classroom at a middle school. I am mentoring a new teacher there, and she had texted and asked me to come in and observe how things were going.

No problem, happy to come! But I didn't expect to hear this from a girl who walked into class and sat close to where I was perched.

"Hey, nice unicorn!"

I knew she was talking to me, but I had no idea as to what she was referring. I smiled and said, "Thanks, but I don't know what you mean."

"That unicorn! On your computer!" she smiled back. "I love unicorns."

I would never, EVER have a unicorn on my computer, but I do have two Breyer stickers, one of the Clydesdale and the other of the 5 Gaiter. I checked the lid, still wondering what she meant. And then I saw it.
 This is the view that she saw of my laptop.
I guess those ears DO look a bit like a unicorn horn when they're upside down!
