So, at lunch, Samantha makes her royal declaration…
“I get to be the princess. And, you, Daddy, can be the king. Mommy gets to be the queen, and Luke is the prince. I guess that means Jake is the mean ogre.”
How very pompous of her, which would fit the reputation of some princesses! However, not the character I want for my little princess. But I was proud of the use of the word “ogre.”
Fortunately for Jake, Daddy had his back. “No, Samantha, Jake is not the mean ogre. That hurts his feelings, and mine.” (Not to mention the poor ogre’s mommy!) “There can be two princes.” He looks at me slyly, “One, two princes…” He knows I love the song by the Spin Doctors
. Now it’s in my head…that’s what I said now.
And all that song makes me think of is visiting you in college and you blasting it as loud as you could to get me out of bed so i would go to your classes with you.
Totally didn’t remember that. But, wow, how annoying I am.
At least we had the tunnel system so you didn’t have to walk all around in the snow. Of course, I think I forgot to mention that feature to you until after we’d spent the day not using them so I could show you the campus. Huh…I really am annoying.
Spin Doctors… Oh how I enjoyed their music. Oh how I got compared to their singer because of my goatee. Are they still around? Haven’t heard anything from them in a while.
Hey Rantz: I have NO IDEA what they are up to. In fact, when I went to the link, it seemed like a bunch of reproductions of the same song! But I do enjoy this album. Too fun!
