The Sunday Funnies
Dorothy, to Sarah: Were you talking to yourself? Usually you talk to me.
Putting on new pants: These pants have pockets in the back?! To put my phones in?!
Brian likes to remind Dorothy that the two of them are Italian; usually this happens at dinner over olive oil, pasta, and other Italian fare. With St. Patrick's Day coming, he mentioned that they are also Irish. She has food and ethnicity swirling around her head, and when I mentioned St. Patrick's Day, she let me know, "Daddy and me are Irish. Grandpa is Irish. You are vegetarian."

The Sunday Funnies
Dorothy likes to refer to the present as "now these days", as in "I like yogurt now these days."
Big Daddy was reading an enormous Frozen book to Dorothy (one of those hard-backed giant books with no detail left out). After nearly 30 minutes reading at the kitchen table, Dorothy said, "This chair is making me uncomfortable. Let's move to the couch with the book and start over."
Dorothy and I went to an appliance parts store to buy a dryer drum belt; ours had snapped and Brian was going to fix it. Later I told Brian, "We went to the store and bought the replacement." Dorothy added, "And a belt."
I took out my driver's license at a store and Dorothy announced, "Your Sarah card!"
Dorothy jumped from the couch to the chair, knocked off the remote control, and the back popped off it. I rushed over to check out the scene and Dorothy asked, "Was that too much for you?"
I wrote the year (2018) and Dorothy said, "It's almost our neighborhood" (1802 Bacon Park Drive).
