The Big Guy is always talking Jabberwocky, as I call it. Someone else might call it "saying things of a contradictory nature" but, hey, BORING (unless, of course, it is Sir Anthony speaking--he can say anything he wants, in my book--oh, I am a card this morning, am I not?).

For example, the other day I walked into the kitchen to see all 12 packages of the super economy size box of saltine crackers lying side by side on the counter.

“Big Guy (who is 19 going on 9), why did you take all of the crackers out of the box?”

“So I could see them.”

“Can’t you see them in the box?”

“Yes, but they are hard to get out so I took them out and put them on the counter.”

Or this gem of a conversation that occurred when I had just returned from the grocery store:

(Big Guy) “I smell something strange, juicy and delicious.”

“Is it the (still hot) rotisserie chicken?”

“No, it’s something strange and juicy that I have never smelt before. I think it’s you.”

Or: “You always never hate me as much as you used to sometimes love me. You know?”

“No. I don’t know. I can’t make heads or tails of what you just said.”

One thing he is pretty much right about--I'll love him always, sometimes, and never never.

(I was interviewed today by Andre Gensburger of the Clayton Pioneer (he wrote a book, too--go see!) What a nice guy! The article won't be out for a few weeks but I will be sure to post a link when the time comes--it's not as if you are already bored to tears with all this stuff you have already heard a million times--no siree-bob! Still, it might be fun to check it out to see whether or not I can produce a hag-free picture to go with it. Oh! And check out my friend Shirley's TWO new Regency-set historical romance Avalon books--the covers are gorgeous--I'm so jealous!)
