Cul de Sac by Richard Thompson for February 28, 2014
Transcript:
Mom: Miss Bliss says you were poking people with your little sword. Alice: Nobody paid any attention to me during sharing time. And Nara brought in an old doll that was her grandma's. Alice: It was all cracked up and it scared everybody. I think it was made of cement. Mom: Well, your sword is going into toy jail. Alice: That's okay. It's boring. For my next birthday can I get a cement doll?
That cement doll was probably made of lightweight porcelain. But I would take a chilly delight in seeing Alice with an actual cement doll! A worthy successor to the little plastic sword as it languishes in toy jail.
