About That Name

What happened was, I said to Boylee, "Just don't give her a name that's too complicated."

He said, "What's a complicated name?"

I said, "Like Supercalifragalisticexpialidocious. Or Mrs. Fitzwilliam Darcy."

He came up with Sassafrass and Catnip all by himself. Only then he had some delicious clam chowder at the fair and changed her name to Clammy. I objected to that one, so he changed it to Skittles, because of the cute way she skitters around. Now it seems to be shortened to Skitz.

I thought maybe yesterday at Disneyland he'd come up with a different name, like Mary Poppins or Tinkerbell, but that didn't happen.
