Friday Funnies...
This morning, we were on our way to the zoo to meet Miss Teri and her grandson Diego when two funny little bits happened. The first being that Prince’s song “Kiss” was on the radio. In itself, not generally such a hilarious occurrence, although I’ll always remember the first time I heard it ~ Amy Jo and I were in the car on the way home from the beach where she had refused to get in the water because she was scared of sharks. Weird.
But I digress.
So I wasn’t really paying attention to the music because I had just passed a thermometer that revealed that it was 89 degrees at 8:45 this morning. Not a great outlook for a woman who currently hates the heat. But all of a sudden, from behind me, I hear my little boy start making smacking noises. I look back, and he’s doing precisely what the music is talking about and smooching the air! And when I said, “What are you doing, cutie?” He replied, “KISS!” SOOOOOO PRECIOUS!
Anyway, a scant ten minutes later, we had been waiting in the turn lane for three lights to get to the zoo entrance, because there’s a really short light. When we were only two cars back, I thought, “FINALLY! It’s our turn!” But the guy in front of us just sat there like a stinking LUMP! So I shouted “GO!” I realized it was childish the second I finished yelling, but felt guilty for the next fifteen minutes as my sweet little baby bug hollered “GOOOOO” twenty times a minute. Eesh.
At least I didn’t say anything that I would have really regretted. Although the adjectives did indeed cross my mind...


I KISS you!
