~Amazed Conversations~

After ice skating with Eamon's friends tonight and then talking to Mema on the phone about it...

Mema: "So, Eamon, are you good at ice skating?

Eamon: <said with no irony whatsoever> "Well, this was only my second time ice skating and when I first got there, it was kind of hard.  But then my friend Nathaniel showed up and we talked for a while and then I started skating again and... then I was just amazing!"

[Read: Not having much experience, I kind of sucked but then my friend arrived and, having no experience, he REALLY sucked so I looked awesome in comparison. And also, I am slightly full of myself.]

My not-so-humble little monkey & his friends! ;)

~Accidental Conversations~

Immediately after talking to Mark on the phone...

INCOMING CALL FROM MARK

Eamon:  "Hey, Dad.  Hello?  Hellooo?!  DAAAD!!!  HELLOO!?"

Me:  "He must have butt-dialed you."

Eamon:  <beginning to giggle>

Me:  "Dude, he butt-dialed you, just hang up."

Eamon:  <now giggling uncontrollably>

Me:  "What?  Just hang up."

Eamon:  <even more giggling>  "I'm going to wait until he farts!"

Me:  <sigh>  "You are such a boy..."
