"Girrrl..."

Louise talks like a teenager.

As a wee lass of modest PBS-centric TV-exposure attending small fairy-centric preschools, she knew comparatively little of the pop-vernacular. But her horizons have expanded, and she's learning fast. The following phrases are now in heavy rotation:

• "And I was like…"
• "Oh yeah, baby."
• "Girrrl..."

The other day I heard her say "Oh snap!"* It drives Sarah crazy. I find it kind of funny.

* She actually picked this one up, she claims, from her teachers who are both in their early twenties.
