Whose Vocabulary Is It, Anyway?
Making plans this morning, on a rare foggy day in San Diego.
Me: Chelsea, what would you like to do today?
Chelsea: Not something that involves the fog.
---
Later, getting ready to go into Barnes and Noble.
Me: Should we bring the diaper bag?
Chelsea: Let's bring the diaper bag, to prevent Savannah from pooping.
--
Involves? Prevent? How is it that she can use those words correctly but can't remember what she ate for breakfast?

Heidi Needs
This is a meme my friend Marcos sent me on Facebook. You Google your name with the word needs behind it, all in quotes, and then post what comes up. Here's what Google says "Heidi needs:"
1. Heidi needs more privacy.
2. Heidi needs attention, too.
3. Heidi needs to finish her latest novel.
4. Heidi needs someone to love her (don't we all?)
5. Heidi needs our help.
6. Heidi needs a friend and so do I.
7. Heidi needs to remember that blood is thicker than water.
8. Heidi needs to be in the spotlight so bad that she is two steps away from being a coked-out porn star.
9. Heidi needs to go away.
10. Heidi needs to dump that loser.
(Mine is obviously messed up by the fact that I share a name with a much-hated celebrity, Heidi Montag. But it makes for some pretty hilarious "needs" dontcha think?)
