We have a cherished set of Star Trek drinking glasses. Shrek had adopted Jim as his "good behavior" glass. It was a great motivator for him to do well at school and garner the necessary amount of good behavior points to "make level". When he made level, he got to use the Jim glass for dinner and the next day's breakfast. When he didn't make level, no Jim.
He was on a first name basis with the glass ("where's Jim?") and I always panicked when I saw it too near an edge, or an elbow, because I liked them too, and know how easily promotional glasses break if you so much as sneeze on them. So I was all *gasp* when I walked in the other evening to find Jim broken. Ed had the same thought I did, and quickly asked Bookworm, "how was Shrek?"
"He was fine," she answered.
"He was absorbed in Sponge Bob," Luke added. "Then he hit Jim with his elbow, and it broke."
"What did he say?" we asked, surprised there was no angst.
They both laughed and delivered the best Shrek line I've ever heard.
"Now he's James Die-berious Kirk."
