flotsam

just the quickest, flottiest bit of flotsam & jacksam today ...

with the nicer weather of summer, we often leave our front door open and just have the glass front storm door closed.

and jack always wants to go outside. even when the storm door is closed and locked.

jack understands the rule that if he wants to go down a step he needs to go down backwards, on his belly, feet first. so in trying to break free and get out-of-doors, he dutifully turns around and pushes his feet against the locked door.

poor git (potter-speak) -- he hasn't figured out that's not all it takes. undoubtedly he'll soon be shouting "no" at the door. something to look forward to.
