The Sunday Funnies
Dorothy has lately enjoyed freezing water containing various objects and dyes and playing with the melting ice. She told me, "I like to put something in the freezer each night so that it's getting ready for me the next day. I like knowing that something is happening and waiting for me." "I get it," I said. "I feel that way when I buy something online and have a package coming to me in the mail. I like the anticipation." "Maybe you should start freezing things," Dorothy suggested.
I'll spare you the details, but Dorothy was explaining why she prefers coughing in the pool instead of clearing her nose of water. I asked, "But do you see other kids choosing to cough?" And she replied, "I know, Mom, but I don't want to contribute to the grossness of the pool."

The Sunday Funnies
I had a rock station playing on the radio. Dorothy grumped, "I hate music like this, a man singer who sounds like he's about to cough."
Taylor Swift sings a rhetorical question, "Who's afraid of little old me?" Then she answers, "You should be." Dorothy thinks the emphasis is wrongly-placed. She wants Taylor to answer, "You should be."
In an episode of Moonlighting, Bruce Willis appears upside down in a fireplace, wearing his signature sunglasses and a full Santa suit. The subtitles read "David: Ho ho ho!" Dorothy noted, "You can only tell it's him because of the subtitles."
