Today I talked to my kids. Grumpy Son is bouding me (pardon my franglais) because he doesn't want to come to Lexington. So we spoke for about 10 seconds, then he got his sister.
"[Sister!] Ramène ta fraise!" (This literally means "Bring back your strawberry," but in this case, it means "Come here!" I love French.)
Then Chattery Daughter talked to me for half an hour. This was good, because lately our conversations have been short. I found out why, though: I've been calling during Star Academy. Silly me.





get hip, mom. ;)
jk.

Next time I beckon Matte, I'm going to say "Bring back your strawberry!"
And how could you call during Star Academy! Moh-ohm!

Not that I know what Star Academy is but if its anything like American Idol, I wouldn't talk to you either! ;)

Wow--cool expressions. I need to learn more slang.

Nice! And by the way, "bouding" makes perfect sense to me! As does "bring back your strawberry!"
Whatever works, right?

For heavens sake, Ali! You should have realized that Star Ac was on!
Never, never call at that time!
