Some things they said

Recently the mermaids have said a couple of funny and even undecipherable malapropisms, actually Emma’s doesn’t even really qualify but we’ll get there.

Unfortunately I can’t really recall the context anymore but it was something like:

Ok, it’s time for the nightly pilgrimage! (to go to bed)

and 2 minutes later Abby said, more to herself than anyone:

Ok, time for the nightly pillow image!

Emma’s dismalapropism (you heard it here first) came back around Thanksgiving but it persists a little even now.

Emma? What is this?
Ehbow.
Right. What is this bone?
Neekap
Good. What are these ones (pointing to her ribs)?
[pause]My salabones.
Yer what?
[distinctly] My salad bones.
[looking around…many blank stares and puzzled faces in the room] Ohhh kay.
