Fascinating Friday: 5 August 2011

Greetings.

It's time for Fascinating Friday and I'm afraid I'm a bit of an Eeyore today, meaning, I don't really want to post a bunch of links to other blogs.

I wanna change it up and dish you something different. I'm gonna share some of the fascinating things that are said in my household. Ready?

From the Philosopher (my hubby):

Me: "So are you still tired?"

Socrates: "No, I was tired until I fell asleep...but then I wasn't tired anymore because a person can't be tired when they're sleeping. Or can they?"

Me: "Oh brother. Is this like that time you came home and asked me if a fish underwater is actually wet?"

Socrates: "Yes. Because if you think about it--"

Me: "No! Please. I remember. Let's eat."

I barely dodged that bullet.

From Coco, who is also sounding like a smart aleck philosopher.

Me: "Coco, we need to lower our voices right now. We use our inside voices because we're inside and Chaucer's asleep."

Coco: "It's not your voice, it's my voice."

It's been a rough week. I better include something sweet just to balance this one out.

Coco: Mama, I wet the bed. Don't worry. It's no problem."

****

From Chaucer, who is neither a smart aleck or a philosopher.

Me: "Chaucer Washer I wub you so much! Muah! Give Mama kisses! Muah Muah Muah!!!"

Chaucer: "Da! slurp."And then he attacks my head.

****

And then there's me. But you already know that everything I say is fascinating, don't ya?
