(phone rings)
Me: Hello?
Dad: Guess what's playing at the Children's Playhouse in Des Moines?
Me: What?
Dad: Frog and Toad are Friends!
Me: Hooray!
Dad: We could go and see Frog and Toad sing a song or make fun of Toad in his bathing suit!
Me: Hooray!
Dad: I told Sarah (my sister) but she wasn't interested. I knew you would appreciate Frog and Toad are Friends!
Me: I do! I do!
To see what we're talking about, go here:

I guess I should plug the Children's Playhouse too:

Later in the same conversation...
Dad: See, you could go to law school and travel all over the world and make lots of money.
Me: Or I could just join the traveling cast of Frog and Toad are Friends...
Dad: rolls his eyes (Well, I'm assuming this by long experience, since I couldn't actually see him.) Here, talk to your mother.
