“And then we watched some Monsters vs. Aliens.”

“What?! Oh my God, I can’t believe you let her watch that!”

“Why not? She loves it.”

“Because it’s violent and scary, that’s why. Wait, that’s not right, is it?”

“Good grief. You’re thinking of Alien vs. Predator.”

“Oh. Yeah, I am. Whoops. Wrong movie.”

“Puh-leez. If I were going to have Coraline watch an action movie, it would at least be a good one.”

“Why does my puppy’s breath smell like a humidor?”

Gasping: “My cigar!”

“Your cigar?”

“I was smoking a cigar outside and tucked the unfinished part in the windowsill.”

“The puppy-level windowsill?”

“Yeah.”

“Didn’t think that one out, did you?”

The tail end of a several-minutes long diatribe while discussing home improvement projects:

“I HATE that short hobbit toilet so much! Someday, when we replace it, I want to sledgehammer it to smithereens. I HATE it. It’s so gross. I keep expecting Ewan McGregor to pop up out of it.”

Sighing in exasperation: “Are you done?”

Taking a bow: “And scene!”

“Uh-huh.”

“I realized Coraline’s first poop on the potty was on my birthday.”

“And just think — she picked this gift out all on her own. The real gift was doing it at my mom’s house so you wouldn’t have to deal with it.”
