Dina had a gentleman caller on Friday afternoon. Or, well, more accurately, I was toting Bassie, Dina, and Dina’s little boyfriend around Coolidge Corner. While in the car, they were make jokes that I guess were funny to a 1st grader. The jokes, in the interest of full disclosure, had to do with listing attributes of Sacagawea, some of which were false, others of which were true (I’m guessing there was some “rule of three” at play that made this particular set of comments humorous to them):
“And you had a baby!”
laugh laugh laugh
“And you were an explorer!”
laugh laugh laugh
“And you had a thousand buttons for eyes!”
That last one is what made Dina laugh hysterically and say the following:
“Oh {name of boy}, you’re adorable!”
Then, after an ever so slight pause during which, I presume, Dina decided that this comment had been a bit too forward, she clarified:
“And by that I mean hilarious!”
That’s right, Dina, keep him on his toes…
