Could This Election End Already??

You’re my Obama. You’ve come to mean so much in so short a time.

Cuddling Confucius

23 Oct

Little B, 2 years and 4 months old, with cheeks that threaten to fall off his face, is comfortably settled on my lap, a fairly routine location in his busy daily schedule. From this perch, he views his beloved ‘fissees’ on my computer, after which he will toddle off to his classroom to seek higher learning. Since his family is known to me, I usually ask after them:

OJ: How is Mamma?

Little B: Fine *cheek wobble*

OJ: How is Nani?

Little B: Fine *cheek wobble*

OJ: How is [the dog’s name]?

Little B: Fine *cheek wobble*

OJ: How is [uncle’s name]?

Little B: Not fine.

OJ: Why, what happened?

Little B: Mosquito bite

…

At which point OJ takes over the wobbling.

OJ: I wonder if we’ll ever stop cuddling in elevators.

The Boy: As long as there are elevators…..

a.k.a. Love is Blind

OJ , texting a girlfriend: Oh no! He’s picking me up in 20 minutes and I have a moochh!

Girlfriend, texting back: Just flash your boobs, men don’t notice moochhes anyway.

The One Where We Wallow In The Shallow

12 Sep

OJ to her girlfriends (proudly): Ahem! Notice my new glasses?

Girlfriend 1 (blankly): New glasses? They look the same.

OJ (huffily): These are Tommy Hilfiger tortoiseshells. The old ones were black.

Girlfriend 2 (absently): I never noticed your old ones either.

OJ (glaringly): The problem with you guys is that you love me for the person I am!

You Tuber

24 Aug

The Boy: Would you believe, they’ve labeled 2008 the Year of the Potato.

OJ (smugly): Ha! They’re naming a year after me now?

You’re always on my mind.
Like a default pop-up window that is occasionally minimized.
