Hold the Phone
I'm overwhelmed and the house is getting angry again. How do I know this? There is a pile of work yelling at me and the vacuum cleaner seems to have given up. (What has offended it? Too much dog hair? Too much of my hair? Too much polyfill from dog toys on which the terrier has performed necessary if messy surgery?)
So in a moment of procrastination, I found this little tidbit about how easy it is, not just on days with the memorable date of 6.6.06 for babies to dial what I suppose one could call the Phone Number of the Beast.
Felix does love the phone. He realizes, I suspect, that the phone means power. It is the source of his parents' dinner leftovers which will visit him at lunchtime (creative in the kitchen, I'm not). And he is ahead of his mother in that he makes use of telephone features, like the "redial" button and scrolls through to find already dialed numbers (so he doesn't have to look them up, I suppose). But I do wonder why he manages, on both home and cell phones, to call one of his aunts. Perhaps he wants to tell her that he's sick of his parents ordering in.
