Todd: Mom, I have a problem.
Me: What's the matter, sweetie?
Todd: Um, I'm a little like Grandpa, I think.
Me: What's that supposed to mean?
Todd: Ummmmm, I'm a little uncomfortable around too many people, and I don't think I like small places very much. I think I have, ummmmm, ummmmm, squishy-itis or something.
Me: Um, I think you mean claustrophobia. But, I have to say, I think your word is more descriptive, I'm tempted to add it to my vocabulary. Let's check with Webster's and see what they say.
Todd: Sounds like a plan, as long as I don't have to stand in any large crowds. :D
Aren't kids smart?

Fun-E. And I don't like elevators one bit. Even when they're empty, but especially when they're full. I think that's a sign of squishy-itis.
Sure-nuff Juge, you've got it too. I'll let Todd know he's not alone. Safety in numbers, and all that (oops, except that doesn't really work for people who don't like crowds does it? Hee hee!)
I love the word! How do you submit to Webster's Dictionary? What can I say, he is grandpa's grandson! It is in the genes and I must say, I think I have it a little myself (though not gene related to grandpa!) Love that Todd!
HILARIOUS! Todd is one of a kind I must say! ALways coming up with something funny and highly entertaining. Thanks for sharing and making me laugh. I needed a good laugh today.
