Perfect


apologies for poor quality of camera phone picture

Today I took #1 son to the optometrists, he had said he apparently had been having difficulty seeing things at a distance. However after testing he was declared to have normal healthy sight in all regards. So I don't know how he got to thinking he couldn't see. But anyway, the good thing is my children all retain perfect function in all their senses (and limbs etc.), which is good as obviously I could not countenance any weakness or disability in them. I have no problem with the differently-abled in general (J'aime certaines dames avec des lunettes) but to have anything less than perfection in something I produced is enough to induce vomiting even at the mere thought. But I'm not a monster, I would not outright reject a child of mine that was not perfect, I would remain on civil terms with them at least up until their age of majority.
So after the good news, I took the children shopping to celebrate their continued small semblance of myself, and to their utter joy I found a nice pink t-shirt to go with my other pink clothes collection. Some children I am told are demanding of things for themselves when they go shopping, mine luckily are very content merely to be observers to my purchases.

C'est bien possible que certaines dames myopes soient tres belles. Les dames myopes aux taches de rousseur, eh ben.....

vrai cela. Les taches de rousseur sont jolies, des taupes sont plus jolies

Alors, c'est la guerre des taches de rousseurs contre des petits animaux gris-noirs?

Edgar said...

Oui apparemment, la guerre est enfer

Oh, l'enfer ce n'est pas les autres?

Ce qui? les autres?

For goodness sake, bravo, we finally get to Sartre l'enfer c'est les autres.
