And look! See all the cute little faces those peas are making?

I want, I want, I want, I want! Pity she doesn't make one in a larger size. Say my size....

We saw a woman with a mei-tai while eating lunch, and as I have no shame I cupped my mouth and yelled "NICE MEI-TAI!" to her, causing rampant confusion all around. (I waved so she'd know who the crazy person was, at least.) And we hopped across the lilypads in the children's zoo (Evangeline hopped once, but every other time we had to go across, she insisted on me picking her up) several times, at Ana's behest. And we saw a play about daytime and nighttime and an owl who wants to eat a frog and a frog who doesn't want to get eaten, so all the kids made it daytime and nobody ate or got eaten, and that was nice, and Evangeline signed frog for the very first time, which I thought was beyond cool, she doesn't sign that much anymore, she talks more. Little chatterbox :)

And Angelique picked a scab. So it bled, and I told her not to wipe it on her dress.

Angelique: But blood doesn't stain!
Me: Yes it does.
Angelique: (glancing down at unstained dress) But it doesn't stain this dress! This dress is magic!

And I showed a couple of people my ring sling... that is, when I wasn't using it to leash Evangeline.

So let's not think that the only time I had fun was when I was arguing :)

Or I think it's a quirk, anyway.

See, they insist that koopas, from Mario Brothers are really ducks, and they call them such. As in "I got killed by a duck" whenever somebody remembers how cool the original Marios were and re-downloads the old SNES emulator. (It seems, now that I think of it, that my mother was a real old school gamer. The computer, our old C64 was in my sister's room (which seems to have doubled as a family room, it was that big), and when my sister and I were going to bed, my mom would be playing on the computer, so it functioned as a nightlight for us, I guess.)

If you've forgotten, or if you've never seen Mario, this is what Wikipedia says about Koopas.

So, I promised them I'd put a poll up.

[Poll #1031305]

Thank you. Please remember to answer all questions.
