Zoe: So let me understand this: You couldn't walk this evening - Mom thought maybe you pulled something playing at daycare - she picks up your 64 pound ass and takes you to emergency - where they find you are sore at your hip joints AND you have early onset artritis in the same place?

Lia: Jess.

Zoe: Are you on muscle relaxers and rest for a few days like me earlier this year?

Lia: Shjess.

Zoe: Are you drunk? Cuz if you are, Mommy gives you an ice cream cup. Can I get one of those pills?

Lia: Fffffyessss.

Zoe: (...Whoa! THIS IS GREAT! This may take care of her freaks over fireworks in our city coming this Sunday! Thank heaven!...)

* * * * *

Trevi and Preston

Lia: Do we know them?

Zoe: No.

Lia: Why're they here?

Zoe: Cuz Mommy likes great dog photography and Grace Chon and Sharon Montrose are amoung the finest....

Smile, Spoiled!

HOW?

How could you say NO to this Smile?

Which is why she gets most everything she wants.

B/W

Lia: I don't get it - why is she doing this again - in the middle of trying to catch a squirrel or two

Zoe: She thinks that if she keeps trying, sooner or later her black and white photography will improve...and I don't have the heart to tell her...


Zoe: But even an emboldened terrier knows you don't shoot black and white on a GREY day...you'll just get all different hues of grey!

Lia: Well hootie-hooo, Ms. SmartyPants....as if you'd know about photography...

I just think I LOOK better in color...would you tell her for me?

Zoe: Sure. (...in August...)

Ridicule

* * *

Lia: Hey, Zoe, I forgot to mention....you can stop making fun of me and my bunny...I learned that together we're ART.

Zoe: WTF? Why are you bothering me and why do you think you're not a joke with that baby toy - you're over 2 y'know.

Lia: You just stop laughing at me and bunny...we are a source of idea and creativity!
Lia: See? What a beeeaaaautiful boxer and her bunny painting......can you say "awww".


Zoe: (...Can you say "stuff it!"?...)

Zoe: You met them already - at Aunti Eileen & Uncle Steve's...the 'little' guy is Vinnie...




Zoe: Someday Mom's gonna get a picture of him laying on his side: his legs are so short that on the side that's UP... poor guys legs just hang...they don't touch the floor...



Zoe: AND THIS NEXT GUY--THIS HUNK'A'DOG IS ANDY! THIS GUY WAS ALL OVER MOM AND I KNEW IT THE MINUTE SHE WALKED IN THE DOOR - I COULD SMELL HIS MANLY COLOGNE.

Lia: Um...are you jealous?



Zoe: I refuse to answer on the grounds that I may incriminate myself.

Lia: Oooo...move...let me check that for you... Where's Mommy going?


Zoe: Move! I don't need you to check it for me...I know a good thing when I roll in it, puppy lug! She's going to take pictures of the baby horsie...


Lia: Hold it - outa my way, Shorty - I'll get the rest with my trickster back roll... So what are we doing Sunday?



Zoe: I'm going to nap in the sun, try to find more of these treasure spots and pretend I don't know you, Dippy!

Aw, c'mon...admit it's cute and he's funny. Good. Thank you.

* * * * *

Does Kinsey Catch the Red Dot?

* * * * *

Lia: Do you think Kinsey catches the Red Dot, Zo?

Zoe: No. People don't let dogs or cats catch the decoy - or in this case...the Red Dot.

Lia: I think he will. Wanna bet?

Zoe: No. You always seem to manipulate the 'win'.

Lia: What's manipulate?




Zoe: When you FIX the bet. Only you do it in front of everyone, so we're not fooled by you. You cheat.
.

Lia: Hey, Kinser - wanna bet you catch the Red Dot?

Zoe: (....dip....)
