They're back!

The 6-year-old just stood next to me for 10 minutes as I read gab. He was holding a toy chicken and describing the sound effects it made, before the battery went flat.

Then he noticed what earrings I'm wearing. "Wait a minute... You're the one with the water pistol!"

"Why, yes I am..." I replied as I retrieved it from my pocket and took aim, only to have him run screaming from the room.

Go me!

I just noticed that the toy chicken is now sitting on top of the computer monitor, watching me. How creepy is that?
