pues

i like funny words like the title of this post. pues was what i like to call a hiccup word for dominicans. it was the grammatically chosen way to say, 'um' or 'well' when you really don't know what to say. lately i've stumbled or fallen into such situations where ya kinda just wanna toss a pues bomb out. like the other day at work when we got torn up for who knows what, to respond to it, i kind of just wanted to say, 'pues' and that be the end of it. too bad pues doesn't solve much. so i playing with kaitlyn and natalie the other day who i lately have referred to as 'bad' and 'worse' and something hilarious happened....i'm gonna compose it in screen write form for more pleasureable reading...

flashback

(while sitting on the couch with beth and natalie during the holidays)

(natalie comes from a fresh shower and lotion wat nots from mom and into beth's lap, who's sitting beside me)

(i turn to natalie)

me: natalie, may i smell you please?

(natalie acknowledges my existance-rare-and smiles)

natalie: no.

it was hilarious!

So the other day i was in the chair with kaitlyn....

(while holding kaitlyn)

me: hey kaitlyn gimme a hug

kaitlyn: no

(then turns and gives me a kiss)

i wasn't quite expecting that one. me and seth played the wii and he flat waxed me in those games, it was pretty cool watching someone i'm over a decade older than explain to me how to play a game then follow by beating me like it's routine. good times. while beth was desparately trying to get the kids to help clean up a beach of candy in their livingroom carolyn decided to analyze everything and discuss what each thing was and i thought to myself, at this rate we'll finish sometime next week, we eventually finished but it was funny.
