Plus, it was Thanksgiving Friday and all…

Me:   Do I hear Sponge Bob down there again?  What did I tell you this afternoon about watching more t.v.?

She:  But this is a full movie of him, Mom, one I never saw before and I really really really  want to watch it. Pleeeeease??

Me:   Hmnnn…  But your dad might want to watch t.v. tonight.

She:  No!  He already said its okay.

Me:   But what about your brain?  What’s Going To Happen To YOUR BRAIN  from watching more t.v.?

She:  One plus one is two!  Two plus two is four!  Three plus three is six!

Me:   Okay, what’s… seventeen plus five?

She: (after two seconds) Twenty-two!

Me:   Yeah.  But how did you arrive at that number?

She:  Well, I already know seven plus five is twelve so ten more is obviously twenty-two, Mom.

Me:   Okay, go watch.

Wondering:  If you have kids, what’s your t.v. policy for them?   And if you don’t have kids, what’s your t.v. policy for you?

P.S. I’m as big a Sponge Bob fan as anyone and someday I might even put up an MP3 here of me doing Patrick’s voice.  (Or not, and say I did.)  Uncannily similar on occasion, that starfish’s voice and mine.

Oh, and guys, speaking of MP3s, I just put up 5 more song snippets on my “Songs I Wrote” page!  (I’m so totally getting my sheets together.  Kind of.  Baby step by baby step.)
