| getting his groove on with one awesome cousin |
The teenager announced that when he moves out to start his real life (presumably after he completes his two PhD's), he is going to get a chocolate toy poodle and name it Pierre (there's a story, you'll have to ask him). I told him this was unacceptable, we don't DO little dogs. So, after a little arguing, he has amended his statement.
He is going to get a pygmy goat and name it Pierre.
Later we were discussing Chaz Bono (because, you know, he's been a little in the news lately) and I told him that his mother was Cher (which was news to him! How did I neglect teaching him these important pop culture tidbits??). I'd heard that at birth, Sonny and Cher* had actually named their daughter God. This made him laugh and, atheist that he is, he decided this was brilliant and wants to do this too.
But he's not planning on having children. The plan is to get TWO pygmy goats. One named Pierre and one named God.
To keep in his apartment in New York City.
Of course.
*editors note: I've since learned it was not Sonny and Cher who did this. It was Grace Slick who was rumored to have named her child God at birth. According to Snopes, this is a false rumor. See here.
