Me: I'm taking a mental health day tomorrow.
Karen: Oh. I hope it works.
Or--
James: (yells a warning to Buster Keaton as he's watching a DVD)
Me: You know, he can't hear you.
James: I know. Because it's a silent movie.
And, while Karen was showing Natalie (12) her baby pictures as James and I are waiting to start Buffy, she shows Natalie a picture of the first time she ever had chocolate cake.
Me: A loss of innocence.
James: They should do that for vampires. Take a picture of their first taste of human blood.
Me: (pinching invisible cheeks) oh, isn't he cute? isn't he a cute vampire?
James: I'll bet he'd be mortified.
Living with people. It can be entertaining.
We introduced Natalie to Buffy tonight. Season 1. First three episodes. Since Natalie is extremely fashion conscious, it made me aware of how long ago season 1 was filmed. Eg: In the Harvest, Buffy is walking around in the sewers and a rat runs in front of her foot.
Natalie: Ew!
Me: The square-toed boots?
Natalie: Yes! (beat) Well, and the rat.
