have you heard tap tap tapping in the night? noticed an unusual amount of grime on the keyboard when you wake? odd smudges on the monitor?
has your little pet been casting side-long glances at you?
looks like the doggie typing lessons paid off!

or it could be ruby.

when i was in kindergarten i pretended to learn french. my parents still don't know that i was just copying my sister.
when i was in 1st grade i started talking like a "hick" boy i liked, saying things like "i reckon" and "i ain't" and "VE-hicle." my parents disapproved.

a mean boy made fun of the girls who tried out for the 2nd grade solo, so the teacher made him sing I Love You Truly in front of the whole class. still lolling.

in 5th grade music class we learned to play the tonette, sort of a clarinet-organ amalgam. there was also a girl in my class named Tonette.
my 6th grade reading group recorded a play with a character named Phoebe. they got mad at me when we learned it wasn't pronounced "fobe." i was good a phonics.
