How's That Again?

One of Squeaker's funny quirks, in addition to repeating the same story word-for-word dozens of times, is the ability to take someone else's story and make it her own. Because of this it's pretty hard to tell what is a for-real Squeaker story and what is a borrowed-from-someone-else-as-if-it-happened-to-me Squeaker story.

A few days ago, Ana was telling Lucky about a girl she met who also had the name Anastasia but went by "Stacy". She added that it was probably because the other girl pronounced her name ah-na-STAH-see-ah (Ana's is pronounced anna-STAY-zhya).

So yesterday, Squeaker was telling us about her friend at school this year whose name is Anastasia but goes by "Stacy", adding, "It's probably because her name is pronounced ah-na-STAH-see-ah." Oh, really?

Seriously, no matter how unusual the name, Squeaker apparently knows or has known someone by that name. You could say, "I met a guy today name Wimblysnippet" and she would be sure to respond, "Oh, there's a kid named Wimblysnippet who sits behind me in second period."

You think I exaggerate.....but I do not.
