The Mallard of Might
Yesterday, the only way to get LJ out of her Superman pyjamas - complete with cape and s-shield - was to promise to dress her in her Superman t-shirt - complete with cape and s-shield. That's what she wore all day, happily, and even to SJ's birthday dinner.
Considering how late it was, and how exciting the day had been, she was very well behaved at the restaurant. She even entertained some of the other diners with song and conversation. A lady at the next table over was treated to a dissertation on Superman, in particular how the Man of Steel "flies like a duck".
"I thought he flew like a bird," the woman commented, echoing the classic cartoon opening.
LJ scowled. "A duck is a bird," she said darkly.
