Not Exactly the Analogy I Would Have Chosen...

Bug was anxious to pet a friend's cat while we were visiting their pool today. Understand that Bug is used to toting around, romping with, and dressing up our up-for-anything cat Mittens, and Munchkin is an older cat not accustomed to being around children. And we all know that Bug's affections tend to be on the enthusiastic side.

I told her that Munchkin would come to Bug if she was interested in being petted but that Bug was NOT to go hunt her down wherever she was resting because she was an old lady cat.

"Yeah, Bug," Bear said disgustedly, "That would be like just going up to some old lady on the street and doing her hair!"

Uhhh...okay. Not sure how Bug came up with that analogy, but whatever works for her 8-year-old mind is fine with her Nana.

Bear said it, not Bug. Still!

Oh, I see that now. Still!!

WHAT!? Jenn, I can see your eye brow rise when you heard this analogy :-) WHATEVER.
There are two times in our lives when one can say whatever comes to mind. When we are young and Nana's and Grandma's and it does not need to make sense :-))) Right Nana?
