Tinker's Tales

Have you ever watched a boxing match with 4 grown men, and two Rotties that think they're people?

Very shortly after we got our little girl, the guys came over to watch a boxing match together. Now, Vern was an old hand at this. And so as the men sat down on the chairs and couches around the coffee table, and in front of the TV, Vern backed up to the couch and planted his butt on it, human-style, and grinned to be part of the gang as the men talked and laughed, and drank beer and ate chips.

Tinkerbell sat back a ways, observing the entire event. She watched as the men occasionally grabbed a chip and ate it, then went back to talking, and watching the match. She watched very carefully and intently, her little head going back and forth, eyes wide. Finally, she thought she had it figured out. Casual as you please, she trotted up to the group of men, stuck out her tongue like a little frog, snagged a single potato chip and sat down in the middle of them to chew on it and watch with them.

The reaction was not instant. There was a pause of disbelief as everyone wondered if they'd really just seen what they thought they did. She didn't bury her face in the bowl, and she was looking at everyone's faces, puzzled. Was that not right? One chip every now and then, and watch the box? Yes? Vern was sitting with them... Why are you all laughing at me? Daddy, why do I have to leave the group? I don't understand what I did....
