All the livelong day...

[saralinda]

Every time I walk through my living room, some toy or other starts playing "I've Been Working on the Railroad." Persistently

Oh, it is, Saralinda, it is.

Big Girl wants to play with Moira, btw.

[saralinda]

Moira asks about BG and WO all the time.

What they're doing, whether they use the potty, whether they like ice cream, etc.

Re: above: Gives the refrain "Someone's in the kitchen with Dinah" a whole new euphemistic meaning, doesn't it?

I love this story. Sounds like something I would do to Sean.

[saralinda]

I think you should definitely do this to Sean.

[rabidpanda460]

I actually just did it to some manager at Shaws when I saw they had my Lactaid Ice Cream!

[saralinda]

You naughty ice cream, Sean. Naughty.

Sweet Moira did none of things. Clearly, you have a poltergeist.

[saralinda]

This would explain a lot. I mean, I've had a lot of questions about my house. Why do Dan's shoes always end up in the middle of the floor, for example? How do those dirty dishes get from the table to the countertop but never quite into the dishwasher? Why do I clean a room only to find a mess in it ten minutes later?

...

Wait...now I know how my mom feels... :/

Gah! I left that comment when I was far too tired to comment. S/h/b Sweet Moira did none of those things.

You've finally arrived when you get a poltergeist. On the downside, you'll spend more money on socks (it's a one-way trip into the dryer) and school supplies (gone in 60 seconds). There'll be smashed relics to weep over ("What happened to my fraternity mug?" "The Swarovski swan? Did it have to be the swan?"). On the upside, you'll find Moira chatting cheerfully with all her stuffed toys lined up on the couch. Kids and poltergeists understand each other.

[saralinda]

Oddly enough, Moira...erm...preaches to her stuffed animals. I call them her "Amen corner."

:D
