Today: Roger’s Teeny Communication Foible
“I need your advice, Roger.” I remarked to my three-month-old baby, Roger.
“Wait until I’m through drooling.” Roger replied evenly.
“I’m hiring a babysitter.”
“Nancy, listen . . . “
“Don’t call me Nancy, Roger. Call me Mother, Roger, remember?”
“You mean you want me to call you Mother Roger Remember, Mother?”
“Oh Roger! Your linguistics are appalling!”
“Perhaps, but no babysitter, huh? I’ll just nap.”
“I’m acquiescing but reluctantly, Roger.”
“Oh and bring home a rattle, Nancy.”
“You mean bring home a rattle, Mother, Roger!”
“Fine! Bring home a rattle mother roger too, if you must then, Nancy.”
Until next time . . . I love you
