Talking on the phone with Cashel on Friday night. Cashel was pretending to be a martian for the entirety of our conversation.
Cashel (in martian voice): “I wonder what this little hole in the wall is for! I know that you earthlings call it an electrical socket! What would happen if I put my finger in there?”
Cashel then makes a long bzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz sound.
Cashel (in martian voice): “The electrical socket is bad.”
Auntie Sheila: “Uhm – so am I talking to an electrocuted martian right now?”
Cashel: “No. You’re talking to a DEAD electrocuted martian right now.”
Cashel then collapsed into hysterical laughter.
We continued on in this manner for about 20 minutes more.
If your brother has any sage advice on raising a little boy, I want it. Because Cashel is awesome.
I think black light mini-golf is always a good activity for a small boy.
If I may add a suggestion, The Monty Python School of Silly Walks has worked wonders for my son. As has the “you must not laugh under any circumstances” Temporary Law.
Kate –
One word:
STARFISH!
Perhaps I will write a children’s book for your future son, Kate, called:
The Ancien Regime Adventures of the Scruffy Demon in the Dead Gay Costume
Whaddya think??
Oh – and I’m seeing Little Miss Sunshine today – I’m excited.
Genius! I miss the scruffy demon. . .
I know, me too! Last time I saw him was at your wedding, it was so good to see him
The Cashel stories are great. I’m looking forward to the next animated classic.
