Oddly enough, he was a toymaker at one time, I think, but now he works for Adidas making a bionic shoe. Maybe they'll come up with one that sticks its tongue out if someone steps on your toe
But I think you're thinking of Geppetto....
I have a

due to excessive socializing last evening. The restaurant we always go to (believe me, there aren't all that many choices here in Podunk) has closed 2/3 of their dining space to renovate and it was soooo crowded. We had to squeeze 11 or 12 people into about enough space for 8. Very claustrophobic.
Fortunately DH is outside working on his boat, so I don't have to feel guilty about laying around in my pjs. Tomorrow DD is auditioning for a job at a nice restaurant down by the river
(click here) (we rarely go there, too $$). If she gets it, I guess she'll be playing guitar and singing for her supper this summer. Freaks me out not a little to think of her either actually getting this job
or being turned down. Don't want my baby to get rejected. Not sure I want my baby to be all grown up and working either! Oh well, maybe
I should grow up and get over it, eh?
