Daddy! Where are my keys?

Hi everybody. Well, it’s Saturday afternoon and I was going to go out for a drive. You see, I just turned 16 recently. So, I’m old enough to drive now. My daddy let’s me drive his old vintage 1960’s car. I have a friend, Francis, across the hall, that I invited to go with me. He loves going places with me.


Me: Daddy! Where are my car keys?


Daddy: Well, my sweet girl, where did you put them last?


Me: Daddy, if I knew where I put them last, I wouldn’t be looking for them.


Daddy: Now, don’t be a smarty-pants ,but I guess you’re right.


Me: I usually put them right here on the bookshelf, but I don’t see them.


Daddy: Maybe they’re behind something on the bookshelf.


So, I take my paw and move things around. I looked behind my nephew Grayson‘s picture, moved my sand dollar and, darn it, nothing.


Daddy: Where are you going, anyways?


Me: Well, Petsmart gives out samples of Temptations treats on the weekend. Daddy, you know, that’s the treats where you see the commercial and the guy is up on a balcony and he throws down a treat and the cat jumps up and grabs it?


Daddy: Oh yeah! I know. You really like those. Well, if you can get them for free, I’m all for that. Who are you taking with you?


Me: I’m going to take Francis with me.


Daddy: He’s quite a bit younger than you. You’re quite the cougar aren’t you?


Me: Well, Daddy, if you got, it you got it.


Momma: Hey! Squeeky! I found them! They were by your blankly !


Me: Thanks Mommy! Time to Roll!!
