Well, I'm home now, facing an entire summer living in my parents'
cabin house. In much closer proximity than last summer, when at least I had the whole upstairs to myself and they were way down in the basement. Now my bedroom is a loft above the living room and kitchen, completely open and with no privacy. And these ol' folks get up early. Yarg. I have to say though...being here...I'm happier'na hoorah. (I'm in the middle of watching True Grit). I even have a couple new Hal-isms already! I bet you missed 'em. I know I did.
To my niece, who plugged her iPod in and stretched the cord across a walkway: "I love you Karley, but I've loved a lot of dogs I've had to shoot."
Demonstrating his command of the Spanish language: "Donde esta. Muy bien. Por que anamos aqui."
On eating for weight loss: "What's the matter, can't you just have a portion? Like me? I just have a portion."
And, our very first Dianne-ism:
"You're just sayin' that cuz you don't mean it."
