Adorable goes a long way ...
After work, my dad met me at the office. I found him chatting up some of the office staff. We met up with C, M and Z and headed out to dinner at a lovely place with a rather strange waitress. Once Dad found a receptive audience for his jokes and banter in Z it was hard for the waitress to find a pause to ask for our order. We had a great meal but I felt I should pay a minimum cover charge. Seriously, it was really nice to see him so animated and Z was such an attentive, conversant subject for his show. And in a very honored move, C felt comfortable enough with me to have me take her to the girl's room where she felt comfortable enough with me to leave behind about a quarter of her body weight for the wastewater gods. It was taking so long, understandable given her pint-sized shape, that M came to check on us ... we were just fine - just marking the territory :) Dad was also a C favorite thanks to a few presents and, more importantly, his removable thumb trick. She'd ask for "Mr. Pepperoni" to show her again and again. She was a great audience.
