Dax asks me, "Are we rightside up?" I look around to be certain that we haven't suddenly tumbled into a sinkhole or developed narcolepsy and determine that, yes, we do appear to be. When I tell him as much he disagrees with me.
Of course he disagrees with me.
But this time he offers an explanation. He holds one hand in a fist and uses the other hand to mimic a person standing and informs me that we are, in fact, sideways because we are on the SIDE of planet earth.
Well, of course. How could I be so dim?
And for those of you who believe in past lives? Dax says that a long, long time ago we were both babies and I pushed and hit him so our mommy put me in time out. BUT!!! I was STILL naughty so she called the police and they gave me a ticket. But I was STILL NAUGHTY. So the policeman flushed me down the toilet and when I came back up I was nice.
I swear that I have never, ever threatened him with a toilet flushing. (Ok, so I may have told him that a policeman would give him a ticket if he unbuckled his seatbelt before the car stopped moving but that is ABSOLUTELY TRUE.)
He also told me that he picked me to be his mommy because he likes me. And he said that we didn't know Devin when we were babies but that Devin was in Washington and he turned blue and then he got frozen.
Do you notice sort of a bleak pattern here? I thought stories of past lives were supposed to be glamorous. Wasn't I a queen or at least a princess? No. I was flushed down a toilet.
*sigh*
