Conversation with my daughter as we sit lazily on the couch with our laptops.
Me: Do you like this photo?
Daughter: Yeah. You gonna put it on your blog?
Me: I guess. I need to write something to go with it.
Daughter: Who's that guy in the horror movie?
Me: Horror movie?
Daughter: Yeah, the guy with the chainsaw.
Daughter: Here, I'll google it.
Me: You want me to compare my father to some murderer?
Daughter: Maybe not.
Daughter: You should write something funny,
Me: But I'm not funny.
Daughter: That's true.
Me: Other people say funny stuff, and I write it down.
Daughter: You could talk about how you get your fashion sense from your father.
Me: What?
Daughter: That would be funny.
I take it you and your father are both fond of plaid? *smile*
ReplyDeleteI can see how your daughter takes after you... *smile, again*
okay, we've got two plaids going on here but they are both in the blue family, so technically...it's a bit fashion forward.
ReplyDelete*lol* Very funny.
ReplyDelete"Oh I'm a lumberjack and I'm OK..." Sorry, I couldn't help it.
ReplyDeleteAnd she'd be right. That is pretty funny. ;-)w

ReplyDeleteI'd eavesdrop but the chain saw is too loud!

ReplyDeletei'm guessing dad's fashion statement is, "it's spring, dammit! even if it is 40 degrees!" am i close?
*stage whispers oh so gently*

Daughter: Whose that guy in the horror movie?
= who's (who is)
(i know that's ridiculously cheeky from moi who avoids capital letters...)
*sings*

Overheard:
ReplyDeleteStudent #1: "Who's that laughing out loud in the library?"
Student #2: "That would be cloudscome. She's reading Jo(e)'s blog again."
I love these conversations!
ReplyDeletekate5kiwis: Oh, good catch. I am going to have to go change it now ... I can't stand to have those kind of mistakes in my writing.
