Sometimes, Molly the little beagle has to get up in the night to pee. She nudges her way out from under the covers, jumps down from the bed, and trots down the hall to the kitchen where we leave out a wee-wee pad for just such occasions. Although our bedroom is carpeted, the long hallway is wood flooring, and her adorable little claws make quite a clicking. Here's STM's interpretation of Molly coming back to the bedroom.

"(Molly click click clicks up the hall) TURN OFF THE RAIN! (she steps on to the bedroom carpet) Thank you."

"Sit. Sit. It won't sit... Uh, come here! No, it's just sitting there now! Oh, this potty doesn't want to be trained. Bad potty!"

Ah yes, potty training. Always a challenge.

This weekend, we took Adam's 8- and 11-year old kids camping. Saturday afternoon, Adam and I were lying out on a blanket while the kids pottered around us, and Adam drifted off to sleep for a while. Suddenly, he woke with a shout of "FUCK NUTS!" You can imagine the pandemonium that this caused with the children. I kick myself for not having the recorder going.

"I am Mediterranean Man! Hear my cry: TZATZIKIIIIIIiiiiiii and tremble with fear. I will cut you with my throwing pita. But not at three o'clock, 'cause it's siesta time. TZATZIKIIIIIIiiiiiii and away!"

After that, I managed to drift back to sleep, only to be awakened by the following commotion:

STM:	(slams his fist into the headboard)
KAREN:	Baby?
ADAM:	Ouch!
KAREN:	Whadyu— Whaddoo?
ADAM:	What?
KAREN:	Wha'd you do?
ADAM:	Nothing.
KAREN:	You punched the headboard again.
ADAM:	No, I didn't!
KAREN:	What do you mean, no you didn't?
ADAM:	I didn't punch the headboard.
KAREN:	What did— Okay.
ADAM:	Nothing ever happened. Okay?
KAREN:	That was a very noisy nothing.
ADAM:	Sometimes noisy nothings happen.

"Listen up, people. Sasquatch has been in my sock drawer again, and now he's somewhere lose in the bathroom. So I'm setting up a six-foot perimeter fence, and someone bring me my clippers. He's mine this time."

And the reveal:

 or click here

RECORDING:	...And someone bring me my clippers...
ADAM:	What was—?
KAREN:	Sasquatch. Bigfoot.
ADAM:	Why does he want to shave him?
KAREN:	Well, that's the whole thing about Bigfoot, he's hairy all over.
ADAM:	Why does he want to shave him?!
KAREN:	I think there's a more important question.
ADAM:	A six-foot perimeter fence isn't a very big area.
KAREN:	I know. That's why when you said it, I was thinking maybe it's a tiny, miniature Sasquatch.
ADAM:	Littlefoot.
KAREN:	Yeah, Littlefoot.
ADAM:	He's been in his sock drawer, and now he's somewhere in the bathroom. Now, our bathroom's not very big—
KAREN:	Exactly.
ADAM:	Teenyfoot.
RECORDING:	So, I'm setting up a six foot perimeter fence...
KAREN:	A six-foot perimeter—That's, basically, this big (holds fingers up).
ADAM:	That's not a six-foot perimeter.
KAREN:	Oh, six-foot, not six-inch. But that's still just about this big (holds arms up).
ADAM:	No. A bit bigger than that.
KAREN:	Six-foot PERIMETER—
ADAM:	Yes?
KAREN:	That's a foot-and-a-half on each side.
ADAM:	It's Microscopicfoot!
KAREN:	(chuckles)
ADAM:	Maybe he needs his clippers 'cause he's gonna shave the floor rugs to chase Microscopic Sasquatch out.
KAREN:	Maybe he has teeny teeny tiny clippers.
ADAM:	So how would he know if he's been in the sock drawer? If he's so small.
KAREN:	Maybe he leaves slime.
ADAM:	From what part of his body would Sasquatch, even Microscopic Sasquatch, leave slime?
KAREN:	Oh! Oh! Okay, maybe he's microscopic, but he's actually got kind of long hairs. He's basically like a little fuzz ball. Maybe he sheds his hairs.
ADAM:	If these hairs are small, right, then they could be really itchy.
KAREN:	Yeah. That could be it. Whenever his socks are itchy, he knows Sasquatch has been in there... What was he doing in your sock drawer, though?
ADAM:	There are certain things I keep in my sock drawer that I like to keep to myself.
KAREN:	I'm the one who puts all your socks away after laundry, I know what's in there.
ADAM:	Now you're just going to make out that you do all the domestic chores around here, and that's not exactly the truth now, is it?
KAREN:	I do the laundry.
ADAM:	IS IT?
KAREN:	I do the laundry.
ADAM:	I hope you haven't been recording any of this.
KAREN:	Who said I haven't?
ADAM:	Oh, you bitch.

I don't know what delights me more, that a cow snorkle is called a moocle, or that STM just called the cow a dickhead.

Hey, Happy 4th, my countrymen and women! I'm sorry not to be there to eat too many burgers and watch pretty colored lights with all of you. Instead, I'll trudge off to work through the SAME RAIN WE'VE HAD FOR A WEEK. So much for independence. Good thing I've got STM to add a little extra sunshine to my nights.

"Oh yeah. With my army of runner ducks, I'm gonna take over the world! With a waddle and a quack, and a waddle and a quack, I'm gonna rule this world. Yeah."

ADAM:	Do you think he's sitting in a nest? His secret lair is this giant nest, and he's wearing a fake beak.
KAREN:	(giggles along)
ADAM:	And he's in his little swivel chair, and as he turns around to face you, saying, "Ah, Mr. Bond, I'm expecting you," instead of stroking a cat, he's stroking a little duck.
KAREN:	Aw.
ADAM:	It'd be funny if he had a navy of rubber ducks. Motorized, weaponized rubber ducks... Ducks shit everywhere, that's their weapon.

If only, indeed. This next one I tried posting on Friday, and screwed it up by posting the wrong audio clip. Here it is again:

"Dim sum. Dim sum! The wontons, they're not cooperating, and there's soy sauce everywhere now. Listen, you fat globby balls, get out of the steamer and help me! Thank you."
