*Mila*: "I want to watch old fashioned songs on You Tube."
Me: "Like from the 80's? Because I know that's old fashioned for you."
*Mila*: "Yeah, really old old fashioned songs."
Me: " What would my grandmothers say? Okay, let's see what we get when we search for old fashioned songs? I know, how about 'I Love Lucy'?"
Was I born inside a television set? She clearly said songs, not tv shows!
*Steve*: "She clearly said 'old fashioned songs' so give her what she wants."
And I'm the one letting her have everything she wants?
Me: "Okay, I'll be putting my conductor hat away now."
*Steve*: "How about Gene Kelly in 'An American in Paris'?"
This would be where *Steve* tries to appease both of us, knowing full well that AAIP is my all time favourite movie and besides who doesn't enjoy a little Gene Kelly singing and dancing in the faux streets of Paris or in the rain?
*Mila*: "Yeah, like Gene Kelly!"
- Interlude with "I Got Rhythm" goes here. Hum the tune in your head. -
*Steve*: "Maybe she'd like to see some old episodes of the 'Carol Burnett Show'?"
Me: "Oh, Mr. Tudball! Do you re..."
*Steve*: "And Miss-us-uh-Wiggins?"
- canned laughter goes here -
signed, the willow
