The Sunday Funnies

Dorothy appeared at 9 a.m. and announced, "I slept in 'cause I was sleepy."

Dorothy will, of course, eavesdrop or read over our shoulders.  Brian was explaining something on the news to Dorothy, and she interrupted him:  "I know.  I over-read something on Mama's phone."

Dorothy was playing a video game where various bouncing characters move through different landscapes.  "Help Derek trudge through the forest," the game instructed.  Dorothy pushed the button and he made soaring leaps through the terrain, rigged like all the other characters.  "He's not exactly trudging," Dorothy snarled.

Big Daddy once again expressed surprise that Dorothy, who is afraid of many things, likes A Series of Unfortunate Events, which they are both reading.  "I thought the worst part was when the aunt got eaten by giant leeches," he said.  "I still can't believe you like these books!"  "Well they weren't giant leeches," Dorothy corrected.

The Sunday Funnies

I gave Dorothy a new, packaged base plate to add to her Legos.
"Hmmm, they're calling base plates 'Make-It Blocks' now," Dorothy observed.
"I got this at the Dollar-and-a-Quarter Store," I told her.
"It looks like the spaces are a little too wide for Legos," she said, but then added, "but, I guess it's okay; it says Works with all leading brands."

Dorothy mentioned her classmate Brennan:  "He has orangish red hair, but he likes to call it strawberry blonde."

Dorothy was disappointed that the team on Double Dare didn't win the obstacle course and the grand prize.  The announcer summed up their total prize winnings.  Dorothy offered, "Since they have over five thousand dollars, I guess they can go to Space Camp anyway."
