This is Thursday

This is the floor vent.

This is Roxy, picking at the floor vent to pull it up out of the floor.

This is Roxy, after she has pulled the vent out of the floor and decided to go 'vent surfing', and gotten caught by The Mommy. Now she's trying to decide whether to come out of the vent.

This is Roxy, checking out the floor vent after it's been taped down by The Mommy.

Any questions?


Roxy actually learned the vent-picking and vent-surfing trick from her little brother, Pixie. He was the first to pry up a vent and go vent surfing. Took a few years off my life! This is the only vent Roxy has tried it on, though she will sniff at others. Pixie will pick at other vents, but so far hasn't gone down in any others, that I'm aware of...at least that aren't already taped down. Nobody except those two have gone vent surfing that I know of. I fear Ziggy will try though, if he sees them picking at vents; he's already a brave and inventive child.

I'm thinking that replacing the ugly boring white vents that screwed down with the pretty decorative vents that don't screw down may not have been such a good idea...
