Sell scoops of DRYERS!) and headed outside to catch the Ice Cream Truck that was INDEED turning down our road. Then explained to them inside, why I was laughing. &#8220;My daughter, who&#8217;s TWO STREETS OVER THERE, heard you coming! She&#8217;s making her brother run her home to catch you!&#8221;<\/p>\n<p align=\"left\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.flickr.com\/photos\/eclat\/914411806\/\" class=\"tt-flickr\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/farm2.static.flickr.com\/1405\/914411806_556f09e37c_t.jpg\" alt=\"ICECREAM\" align=\"right\" border=\"0\" height=\"100\" width=\"77\" \/><\/a> They of course found this enormously hilarious, just as I did, and I had the girl run in, call the boy&#8217;s cell phone, and let him know we&#8217;d caught the truck and find out what he wanted. So funny was this, that they even gave me a 50 cent discount instead of letting my daughter run back inside for change for me. I promised I&#8217;d make it up to them. They also said &#8220;We&#8217;d promised the cute little blond we&#8217;d come back when we were in this area of town, so we did! Glad she gets her ice cream!&#8221; Said cute little blond came around the corner then, grabbed her drumstick and beamed happily.<\/p>\n<p>It was the funniest thing I&#8217;d seen all day&#8230;. until an hour later.<\/p>\n<p>The pup went out to grab me a Diet Crack from the fridge, and dropped one. It burst and was spraying EVERYWHERE, while she screamed:<\/p>\n<p>The Pup: WHAT DO YOU WANT ME TO DO?!<br \/>\nMe: Put it in the sink!<br \/>\nPup: NO!
