Random Pensées: Warping your Child

Warping your Child

I probably have a lot to answer for. My daughter is in her little black and white t-shirt from Alcatraz and running around announcing to one and all what I told her to say to anyone at the beach if they ask her either where she got the t-shirt or why she's wearing it:

I'm a gangsta of luuuv.

Exhibit A in the case of why I should not be trusted to home school my children.

Are you saying you're like Robin Williams in Mrs. Doubtfire?

RP, does that mean some people call you Maurice?

Yup. And we speak, of the pompatus of love.

Linda, I meant to add that the reference sort of escapes me since I never saw the film. Should I?

RP, Mrs. Doubtfire is a must!!

YOU will LOVE Mrs. Doubtfire, especially considering your affection for your children.

Your daughter is going to make a pscychatrist very happy one day.

"It all started when I was a Space Cowboy..."

Worse than that, I'm now going to have that damn song in my head for 24 hours at least, especially that waaah-waah guitar thing. Thank you very much.

It's enough to make me want to implant Bobby McFerrin's "Don't Worry, Be Happy" and it's bloody whistling into your mind. But I won't.

LOL, warper of little children!
My dh taught the Monkey the lyrics to Buttercup Baby...She adds the exaggerated hand gestures...

Ok, I guess I'll check it out. I have always loved Mr. Williams' standup even as I have never thought his movies were as funny.

Buttercup baby and the hand gestures? I trust you have a cam-corder?

Simon, nice try. Unfortunately for you, and for me, Jimmy Buffet has way too strong a grip on my mind this morning and "I don't know where I'm a gonna go when the volcano blows".
