Well, one was Sophia. Just kept making me chuckle. I loved it when I asked her to let the dog out, and she couldn't do it. So she ran away, explaining to me that the dog will just have to use the potty inside, instead.
The girl kept making me laugh all evening. She just has such interesting things to say, and the way she she says them are hysterical. She can turn an ordinary, "Okay, Mommy" into a hoot. What a character, that girl.

Rob and I just had a fight. I couldn''t stand the Banana Scream protein shake he made me, and I refused to drink it anymore. He reminded me that in my dream, he'd punched me in the face for not drinking my protein shake. I took my chances, though, and he took back the shake.
He drank it, too. Said it was the worst thing he'd ever had in his life. So, there.

My friend Nicole cracks me up. She's one of those people that always knows exactly what you need, like my MIL. I opened all the mail last night - because I'm the only one who can, you know - and there was this thick little card from Nicole. She made it herself, of course, and it was lovely. Except it contained a tiny, wrapped package, about the size of a Halloween Fun Size candy bar.
What?! Well, I can't have that! So I put it to the side and didn't think about it again until this evening, when Sophie noticed it and wanted to have what was in the package. I'd discovered my wonderful SF Popsicles by then and thought I could handle giving away a piece of chocolate.
We watched and waited while my fingers did the opening, and then we peered down at the little green tray. Nope, it was not chocolate (yay for me, not so happy for Soap) - it was a tin of that old-timey type of lip balm that slides off, you know? Mint Chocolate Chip Ice Cream flavor, one of my favorites! That rocks, and I had to laugh. They can take away the yummy food, but they can't stop me from rubbing the flavor all over my lips!
(Of course, now I'm so touched, I'm fighting back tears.)

I dreamed I moved back to Miami to go to grad school and open a lunch shop with my grandpa. To drive around, we bought a boat and put an ice cream freezer in the back. The roads were water, and the throttle? Grandpa's weiner.
I did the driving.
Ick!
Fin.
