Anyone? Anyone?
Ramona the Pest reference. In kindergarten:
Next Miss Binney taught the class the words of a puzzling song about "the dawnzer lee light," which Ramona did not understand because she did not know what a dawnzer was. "Oh, say, can you see by the dawnzer lee light," sang Miss Binney, and Ramona decided that a dawnzer was another word for a lamp.
Yesterday the pull up queen decided to pull up on the floor lamp. Actually she's been trying to do this for a few days now and I've been on hand to discourage her as I could sense imminent disaster. Yesterday, however, was the day that I looked away for a nano-second and then heard the horrible crash, bam, thwack, followed by much crying.
She has recovered and learned nothing. The offending floor lamp is now gone, but there still remains one in her bedroom. It's like a magnet for her. It too will soon be gone.
