"Mom! I want more crackle-dy rice cereal right now!"

"Try saying that again, please."

"Mom!"

"And say it politely."

"Mom, please don't make me try saying it again please!"

Down Time

"Hey, Mom? You want to come in my room for some relax time with me?"

"Yes I do."

"Okay. You go in. I'll be right there. I just gotta get Jango Fett and Kit Fisto and the Storm Trooper and the other Storm Trooper and Anakin Skywalker without his hand and the Ewok that I don't know his name and the Ewok's brother and Plo Koon's astromech R7-D4 and..."

What's With Everyone?

Found: Violet standing in the middle of the dining room table staring at the light fixture.

Found: Pearl sleeping inside her litter box.

Found: Daisy lying under the couch cushions.

Found: Bob in his storm trooper costume, standing in the bathtub shoving a peanut butter cup under his mask.

Found: Me in the laundry room hiding from all of these weirdos.

I love these weirdos.

Bob and I took Pearl to the vet for her check up. As usual, Pearl was not amused. Bob had a discussion with our vet about her prognosis.

"So, Bob. She seems to have a little arthritis in her elbows but we have something we can give her that might help that."

"That's good. Did you know that I'm four-and-a-half?"

"Is that right? And what do you want to be when you grow up?"

"Um..."

"Maybe a veterinarian?"

"No. Definitely not that. I'm going to be a Jedi Master."

"I see."

"I think they might need more of those at Star Wars."

"Hey, remember the 'naughty chair,' Mom?"

"I remember it."

"Really? We tried that once when you were two, Bob."

"Why didn't we do it anymore after that one time?"

"Because it's supposed to be like a time out but you liked it and that defeated the purpose."

"We don't do time outs either, remember?"

"Yes, I do. Same reason."

"It's still a fun chair."

"Exactly."

This short documentary is about an extraordinary genius.

This is because you know I dig me some pictures of bookshelves.

I love them. (Better than the original.)

Happy Sunday.

sticking straight up in the back and I
left it there all day because I loved it.
