"Doda", the elf at the Patterson house, creeps me out. He moves around. Does weird things. Drinks syrup out of the bottle with a straw.
I grew up with the "bathabees" and the goblins of Ireland scaring the stew out of me.
The nuns scared me.
Walking in front of people scared me.
Talking in front of a class scared me.
Flying monkeys scared me.
Loud sounds scared me.
But, elf on the shelf -- I stand up straighter and I keep me eye out for him. He has the same grin as "Chuckie". He shows up where I least expect it. I am on my best behavior when I'm at the Pattersons. I don't want to get on Santa's naughty list. I think Doda would enjoy turning me in.....
Bill should probably get an "Elf on the Shelf."
