All Things Anne

Here’s a bunch of funny things my siblings have said recently that I’ve posted on my HSB blog.

This Kid Knows His Mind
Last night we “jammed” for a while in the little tiny room fondly dubbed the “studio”. Every once in a while Jay would come up and clap or nod his head to the music.
At one point Dad said, “I think he’ll be the next drummer.”
“Jay, do you want to play bass, guitar, drums, or sing?” I asked him.
He looked all shy, and dimpled. “Listen,” he said.

My Pants are Broke
Sadly, yes. See, you have to understand…I haven’t grown–vertically–since I was 14, so most of my clothes still fit. I have had the same pair of jeans (and same pair of overalls) for five years, and just now I’ve worn a hole in the left knee (and almost in the right) of my jeans.
So today, I was standing in the living room…and Jay comes up to me. He gives me a hug, then looks down at my gaping jeans knee and said “Anne, your pants are broke!”

Abby
Abby’s so funny. She’s gotten into this (bad) habit of not eating her dinner.
Dad said “Do you want it for breakfast, babycakes?”
I think she said “No”. A little later I went to give her a bite, and she said, “No…dad said uh breakfast.” (in other words, “No, Dad said I could have it for breakfast.”)
