The All-For-One Discussion

"Dude, did you hear that?"
"Yeah, I heard, Day; looks like it's not gonna be the lucky day you had in store, after all..."
"SSHHHHH... Snowmaaaann..... whisperrrrrrrrr!!!"
"Sorry, Day, I didn't know it was a secret..."
"Well, of course it's a secret! You heard what I heard and you should know by now that it means we're in hiding... QUICK... close your eyes..... It's all-for-one, we're sleepin' and nothin' can wake us!!"
"But, Day..."
"No 'buts'... just do it! Close your eyes, close your eyes NOW!"
"Day, I can't!"
"Yes, you can!"
"Day! I don't have EYYYELIDDDDSS, DUUUUDE!!!!!"
"Oh....."
"Quick, Day... your mama's comin' in here..... what'do I do? What'do I dooooo??"
"Uuummmmm... start snoring!!"
"What??? I don't snore!"
"You do now! I am NOT getting dressed in a MILLION clothes  and going outside into the white-cold FREEZINGNESS for that embarrassing torture Mama calls a 'walk'! Now, start snorin' and make sure it's LOUUDDD... don't you dare blow this for me, Snowman!!!"
"FIIIIIINE! But I think you're RIDICULOUS and TOTALLY OVERREACTING about your mama wanting to take you out for a nice little walk of togetherness!"
"If you think it sounds so nice, maybe you should go on the walk!"
"Maybe you should be not-so-bossy to me..."
"I'm not bossy... I'm desperate!"
"Okay, okaayyy... here goes..... *yawwnnn-whistle-z-z-z-z-zzzz*"
"Really??... Could you at least trryyy to make it seem natural? We're going for buy-worthy here, not over-the-top, Snowman!"
"I'm telling you, Day... one more snarky review and I am so selling you out!!"
"Do it right and I won't have to give you snarky reviews!"
"Don't say I didn't warn you..... Oh, hi there, Day's Mama! Day and I were juuuuust laying here talking about you... he is SO excited that you want to take him outside for a walk and he is just itchin' to get into his snowsuit layers and get outside for some fresh air!!!"
"WHAT? Wait! No... I didn't... *sigghhh*... snowmen are so unfair... grumble, grumble....."

The Wooly-Mess Discussion

"Daaayyyy... what the heck happened in here?? I left the room for THIRTY SECONDS!!!"
"Whaaaaat??! You LEFT! I got lonely... I needed company!!"
"And the knitting project I'm working on took my place??"
"Well, um... it was warm and soft and squishy like your cuddles, soooooo..... yeah, I guess it kinda did."
"Take a look at the mess here, Day... it hardly looks like you were merely 'cuddling' with the wool."
"Well, but it started that way..."
"Do pray tell."
"Welllll..... I looked up and you were gone and there I was..... aalll alo-onnnnne. And then I looked up on the couch and saw that you'd also left that poor yet delightful wool-squishiness all alone, too; that's when I knew that we were both in the loneliness together and I thought I should fix it for us both."
"By destroying it."
"Not destroying... plaaayy-innggg....."
"That wool is for making a blanket with, Day, not for playing with!"
"YOU got to play with it..."
"I wasn't playing with the wool, I was knitting with it..."
"Do we really need to stand here and argue semantics, Mama? Seriously... haven't we already wasted enough of our precious cuddle time on this trivial issue?!"
"Trivial issue?? It'll take me hours to untangle and roll this wooly-mess into a new, useable ball for knitting with!"
"Reelaaaxxx, Mama... I'll help you... I mean, hey, if I could make this much beautiful art on only my very first try, just imagine what I'll be able to do with a little more practice!"
"The only practice you'll be getting, Day, is in cleaning up!"
"That's not fun..."
"But that's what's happening... start cleaning, Mister!"
"Mamas are so unfair... grumble, grumble....."

The Holdin'-Paws Discussion

"I'm just going to lay here and hold paws with you until you feel aaaall better, Mama."
"Ohhh... that's so sweet of you, Day!"
"I know."
"I just have one teeeeeenie little request though..."
"Which is??"
"Well, do you see how your toe is pushing my toe waaayy over?"
"Yup."
"It's kind of uncomfortable..."
"No, it's not."
"It really kinda is."
"No, see... it neeeeeeds to be like that..... we're holdin' paws and it's makin' you better! I mean, how else are you going to get all healed up if our paws aren't locked tight enough for me to give you all of my awesome healingness??"
"Well-wishes would probably work just as well."
"Too late, Mama, we're already settled and locked-in for the long haul!"
"And I wouldn't want it any other way, Day... holding paws with you just fills up my whole heart."
"I know."
"And, you really are the sweetest, most caring and full-of-love boy a mama could hope for."
"I know... but, I think you also meant to say 'incredibly and BEYOND handsome'..."
"Greyhounds are so unbelieveably modest... *eyeroll, headshake*....."

The Tasty-Spoon Discussion

"I just checked on you... you were sound, sound asleep."
"Well, um... I waaaas sleeping... but..... then I thought I heard a spoon tap-tap-tapping against the side of a container???"
"You did?"
"I thought I did."
"Could be because I just tapped the excess sour cream off of this spoon for the dip I'm making..."
"SOUR CREEAAM?? But... I love sour cream....."
"I know you do."
"Wait a minute! Were you even going to tell me there was a sour cream spoon to be had?"
"Of course I was going to tell you there was a sour cream spoon to be had."
"Sounds a little fishy, Mama... you just said you checked that I was sleeping and it had to be before you were holding the sour cream spoon or I would've smelled the deliciousness when you came to look in on me. I think you were checking to make sure I was asleep. I think you maybe thought that I was so asleep that I wouldn't know there even was a missed spoon..."
"Day... do I not always offer you the spoon??"
"Usu'lly. Guess I really don't know, for sure, though... you could have pulled this stunt before when maybe I really did sleep through a tasty-spoon opportunity..."
"I promise you, I have NEVER cheated you of a tasty-spoon!"
"So you saayyy....."
"Day! Do you want the sour cream spoon, or not?"
"Well, of course I want the sour cream spoon! I want EVERY sour cream spoon!! Even SOUR CREAM would want the sour cream spoon!!!"
"Here... it's aaaalll yours. Enjoy!"
"I'd enjoy it more with an extra dunk... y'know... to make up for the uncalled-for betrayal of trust....."
"Greyhounds are so unfair... dunk, dunk....."
