I am Doodlebug, King of the Olde English Bulldogges.
Me: Where’s Sweetie?
Sweetie: Nowhere in particular.
MoonCat: Check behind the couch. Follow the sound of scraping.
Me: Sweetie?
Sweetie: Nope, nothing back here but…well, nothing.
Me: Sweetie! You’ve got my little fan’s electric cord tangled around your feet.
Sweetie: Oh, is that what that is? How did that get there?
Doodlebug: Well, you know how. You started playing with it and wound it around you.
Me: I don’t care about the fan, but I don’t want you to get hurt, so here goes the fan, off by itself where no one can get tangled in it.
Sweetie: Oh, pooh! It was my best friend when it blew on me.
Me: But it can’t blow when the cord is unplugged.
Sweetie: Well, just plug it back in over here where all these other electric plug and electric strings are.
Me: Nope. That is all going away. Safety first.
Sweetie: What’s second? Is second fun?
