Old School

Sep 21, 2007 22:56

I have a three year old daughter. Sometimes she gets a little stuck wanting things. She wants something to eat, or wants to forestall going to bed, or to school... the usual. But when she gets stuck, she ends up going, "I want... I want... I want... I want... I want... I want..."

One of these times, I got a little silly and broke into the opening of "It Takes Two," by Rob Base and DJ E-Z Rock.

I wanna rock right now
I'm Rob Base and I came to get down
I'm not internationally known
But I'm known to rock the microphone

And, of course, because it amuses me, I've taken to doing it every time she gets stuck. Now, though, she comes back with, "I want to rock the microphone," in a hilarious deadpan, staccato delivery.

In other news, I was driving back from a work thing and passed a guy on the street who I am assuming is homeless because his sign read, "HOME LEES". It is a testament to my insanity that I thought about offering him $10 to let me correct his sign.
