Wisdom of Rufus #524

On Thursday, Princess Fusslebutt Goozie Magoo started running a high fever, topping out at 104.9. Needless to say, we went to the doctor...all four of us: me, Goozie, Rufus, and Boudreaux. As the doctor was explaining the blood tests and chest x-rays that she was about to take of my 11-month old, lethargic, hottie-for-all-the-wrong-reasons girlchild, Rufus and Boudreaux sat in the corner playing their Gameboys.

Rufus to Boudreaux: "I'm experiencing short term memory loss."

(Conversation between R & B continues...)

Doctor to Fatty: "Did he just say 'short term memory loss'?"

F to D: "Yes, he did."

D to F: "How old is he?"

F: "Six."

Doctor to Rufus: "Do you and your brother play together a lot?"

Rufus to Doctor: "Yes, except when I get grossed out by his putrid breath."

Doctor to Fatty: "You've got quite a child there."

(Yes, we got past the major fever and are on the mend from the subsequent snot attack.)
