I once spent a summer trying to sell vacuum cleaners.

I'm not proud of it. I was in college.

I did the same thing with a little boy during a demo, except with a cleaner attachment.

Didn't make the sale either.

Years of therapy? Not the way you played it. You made a friend. She made a friend.
She might not remember you consciously, Blue, but you taught the girl that when someone accidentally knocks you over,turns around to see how you are and, going the next step, cares enough to see who you are is as good a way to start as any.

Wow, you're like Supernanny, only with hitting and knocking down.

It's kind of Snaggy.

Aw, that's sweet. Well, not the "smacking in the face part", but the "reading with the half pint" bit.

Kathleen

aw you're so sweet BG!

Dan Leo

Beautiful.

What a lovely story! And you sat down on the floor and read to that wee kiddle! That's soooo cute, it cancels out the fact you were in Borders when it happened. ;o)

Actually, as long as they didn't have a danged TV in there, I've nothing at all to say. The draw of brand-new books in long, high stacks is, well, irresistible.

Thanks for the story and the link, BG!

Selling vacuum cleaners would suck. Baby dropkick sounds like a really mean game. Baby forward lateral not so much.

And as she rubbed the white fur, her quivering lips broke into a beautiful, drooly smile.

So I dropkicked her through the middle goalposts for 3 points!!!!!
