16. July 2008 by Ben.
Sophie: I’m gonna watch Snow White!
Me: Wow, you’re gonna watch Snow White again?
Sophie: Yeah!
She suddenly remembers she just got new studio portraits, and cuts me off from my reply.
Sophie: I got pictures!
Me: I know, I saw them! Do you know that I’m gonna come see you later on your birthday?
A thud is heard as the phone falls to the ground. Uh oh.
Sophie (yelling in the background): BEN’S COMING!
Uh oh. I hear rapid footsteps as she runs to the window to look for me. Uh oh, uh oh. I just accidentally lied by saying I was coming and then not showing up right away. Blërg!
Lesson Learned: Do not tell Sophie something will happen “later” unless it is imminent.
