Conversations

Monkey and I have a lot of conversations. Some of which are actually interspersed with real sentences, spoken in English!

A representative sampling:

Monkey: Sit!
Me: Yes, that's right, you sit in the chair.
Translation: She was standing on the chair and knows better....


Monkey: Preshush?
Me: Sure, you can have pretzels.
Monkey: Yeah, preshush!
Translation: OMFG do I LOVE pretzels! Must scatter them on floor....


Monkey: Ah-bah-dee?
Me: Um, I don't know what that means, can you tell Mama again?
Monkey: Ah-bah-DEE?
Me: Still, no.
Monkey: AH-BAH-DEE!!!!!!!! (going all ugly american and yelling, like volume is a translator)
Me: Yup, um, no.
Monkey: I give up, you are impossible. (ok, she didn't say that, but she sure gave me that look!)
