Banana Face
I’m not going for it, the decisive Wednesday battle Brinkley wants. I’m just going to keep changing it up, refusing to let him concentrate his strength anywhere. He shifts to, I shift away. I went to the bananas earlier than usual. It was a tough decision, but you know, they all are. I had already committed to a bananas attack, but he was really enraged and I can’t have him thrashing around and screaming when the bananas come in. I decided to lead with a 3 oz bottle and if that put him to sleep, so be it. The bottle calmed him and I hit him right in the pie-hole with the bananas. He handled the pie-hole periphery himself.

On the other hand, I don’t drool all over my clothes like a mental patient, so that’s one in the win column for Daddy.
