Kidding, but Only Barely

I am sitting at the bar in the kitchen, eating a lovely and well deserved turkey and swiss sandwich.

Ellis: Daddy, make me a sandwich.

Me: Um, I don’t really respond that well to being ordered around, Ellis. You need to ask nicely.

Ellis, looking STRAIGHT into my face: You are dumb.

Me: Pretty sure if I’m dumb, then I’m too dumb to make you a sandwich.

Ellis: Oh! You aren’t that dumb. You know how to make me a sandwich!

You will please excuse me now, I’m off to create an eBay account to sell this kid off:

Small, cute caucasian 4 year old. One owner. Low miles. Potty trained. Knows how to count to 100, though she’s a little “iffy” in the 60s. Can read very short sentences. Mouthy in the extreme, buyer beware.

NO RESERVE!!!!

Holy Crap! Look at all this STUFF down here. It's awesome!

 

Really, I'm glad you made it down here. Almost no one ever comes down here. I'm like in a freaking dungeon down here. I get lonely. But not you. YOU made it all the way to the end of the page. For this I think I've a little crush on you. I don't know, is "love" to strong a word to use in this situation? Well, if it's not "love," then it's very strong "like." I'm totally in like with you for coming down here. You are awesome. Please love me back! I know, I know, I shouldn't be all needy, it's not attractive at all, but you don't know how it is to be stuck down here. Who scrolls all the way to the end of a page anymore these days? Anyway, thanks for shedding some light down here in the depths. I appreciate it. Shoot me an email and I'll send you a dollar, OK?
