Semantics

Abby and Jon have gotten to the point where they argue about different things from time to time. It will be interesting to see both of them as they get older.

Case in point: we were driving to get out of the house and pick up some dinner and such yesterday. Between conversations between Rachel and I, music from the iPod and general ruckus from the kids in the back Jon piped up to get our attention.

"People! People!"

Abby gave him a strange look and told him, "Mommy and Daddy have names, we're not people!" She stopped for a moment and kept on talking, "Well, we all are people but we all have names. It's rude to call them people because they have names. So don't call them people."

Jon kept his side of the argument brief, retorting with a raspberry and continuing, "People!"

Keep TiVo Tidy!

Rachel likes to keep neat and organized TiVo lists. After her shopping excursion today, she came home tonight and was going through the list and deleting programs that have been watched, et cetera et cetera et cetera.

She got to Batman: The Brave and the Bold and asked, "Did you watch these already?" I told her that we did not, but Abby, Jon and I did watch all of The Brotherhood.

She was not amused.

This entry took me a bit longer to type as I was riveted to the opening segment of Fringe.
