Miss Dog Lover Today April 21, 2008

Miss Dog Lover is such a delightful child. I don’t do coffee so my brain requires a morning warm up session, a lot like on the old cars when someone had to get out and wind that huge handle on the front, only in the case of my brain, this handle often takes the form of my loud and tuneless singing of whatever worthless ditty is floating around the fringes of my mind. My crew is mostly immune to this, but not completely, as demonstrated this morning by Miss Dog Lover.

I was warming up by singing the old “I’m a Pepper, He’s a Pepper, She’s a Pepper, We’re a Pepper, Wouldn’t you like to be a Pepper, too?” ad and, after a moment’s pause, I heard her say, “No, I wouldn’t, to answer your question.” Perfectly serious.

Then, later in the day, she was asking me why Miss Language was behaving in a way Miss Dog Lover found goofy. I said I didn’t know and Miss Dog Lover pointed out that she (Miss Language) is my daughter and I ought to know. I replied that she (Miss Dog Lover) is also my daughter, and I cannot explain everything she does, either. To which she responded, “You’re full of daughters.”

And now I see she has prepared a shopping list on a tablet (guess what manufacturer supplied it?)

1. Buy Suave products (that was printed on the pad)

2. Buy makeup/& lipstick

3. Buy fashion clothes

4. Buy a new purse. / wallet

5. Buy Hair things

6. Buy more magnet earrings

7. Buy jewlery

8. Buy more cream/spray

9. Ipod/music

10. pink flipflops with high-heels. / Digital camra pink

Somehow I don’t think this is her Mother’s Day shopping list. I suspect that because I also do not do high heels. They are not a good idea for someone whose brain is often only partially engaged.
