The Plural of Doofus
GirlChild and I were conversing about the weekend. She had traveled to see family and friends, and somehow (no connection, I'm sure) the word doofus surfaced. Only there were two of them.
Doofuses?
No.
Doofi.
I'm so glad to see that studying Latin was not only useful, a little bit of it even rubbed off on the kids.
In other news: I need to invite people over more often. We not only cleaned, we also finished painting the hall and rehung pictures in a somewhat organized and tasteful way. It was pretty exciting.

Wow, you were up early this morning! 6:30 a.m. Chicago time, I think.

Do you realize I have never seen your condo? This must be remedied before you move! I'll bring wine :)

I hope the word didn't come up in conversation while discussing anyone at my house! It was lovely to see GirlChild. Your godson, in particular enjoyed seeing her. They are planning to find an NLL game they can go see. Maybe we will all come and see the paint progress or maybe I'll just send you your godson.
GirlChild got in very early by the way! Just thought you would want to know...
