BiblioDiva: Do you want me to hold your ice cream cone?
MKWF: No. I got it.
BiblioDiva: Don't you trust me?
*pause*
MKWF: I can drive and eat a ice cream cone.
BiblioDiva: Does anybody in this car believe he trusts me to hold his ice cream?
*silence*
MKWF: I have an announcement to make. I forgot to say this yesterday.
BiblioDiva and MMTM look at each with deep concern over the solemnity in MKWF's voice.
MKWF: Let the fattening commence!
MMTM: She asked me how I felt about the GrannyPod.
BiblioDiva: You never answered me.
*pause*
BiblioDiva: I took that as your answer.
MMTM: That's fine. When y'all get tired of me, you'll just load the GrannyPod on the back of a truck and ship me up and down the interstate.
MOBS: It'll be a nice truck.
BiblioDiva: No, no, no. The GrannyPods stay in one location. We'll use cages to ship you from location to location.
MKWF: Make sure we have enough room to stand up and turn around.
MOBS: We will. You'll also get a water bottle and exercise wheel.
MKWF: Do you still need your tv tray?
BiblioDiva: No, I'm going to rest my ice cream bowl on my belly while I eat.
MKWF: That's my girl!
MKWF: Come outside. I want you to hear the frogs.
BiblioDiva: Hold on, I need to put on some shoes.
MKWF: We're just going in the driveway.
BiblioDiva: There could be frogs in the driveway.
MKWF: *staring*
BiblioDiva: I don't want to step on any frogs. If I do, I will scream like a little girl.
MKWF: That's ok. That's all part of nature.
BiblioDiva: *staring*
BiblioDiva: I'm mildly reassured and amused to hear that other people referred to her as the Ugly Lady.
MMTM: I never said she was a lady.

Oh! I cannot catch my breath - I am laughing so hard...
Your dad got me with "That's ok. That's all part of nature."
I so very much need to meet your family.
@Pamela Yep, that's my family.
@Karen Do not encourage him!
@Artemisia I thought you met my parents at a birthday party at Liane's house. They were probably on their best behavior b/c they didn't want to embarrass me in front of my friends. To get the full effect, you need to spend time with all four of us at home.
