“Do You . . . Do You . . .”

by Little Miss Attila on January 7, 2009

Dad is almost at a loss for words, which is rare for him.

He’s ready to use a new verb for the first time; I can feel it.

“Do you tweet?” He finally spits it out.

“Yes, Dad. Yes. I do.”

There is a moment of silence as he attempts to digest this strange datum about his eldest daughter.

A few minutes later he gets off the phone, as if he has a need to be alone.

[Memo to Yazoots: How’m I doing? I’m sorry I fictionalized what you said. By “I’m sorry,” of course, I mean, “I am not sorry in the least.“]
