(about our previous visit, see this entry and this one.)
There were too many funny things for me to remember them all.
But, a few. Note: These are not the exact words on all convos. 1) Even my memory is not that good. 2) Sometimes I had to change a few words so it would make SOME sense even if you weren't there.

The Keystone Cop sequence at lunch *cough*:
We were eating outside, and it was windy. As I had drunk everything in my cup, my cup began blowing away. So I reached out to grab for it and ended up knocking over Elpinoine's cup of water. Fortunately, no one was sitting there and it was just water, so it wasn't a big problem. Well, then I hopped up to try cleaning up the water and... erm... forgot that the bench which Madeline and I were sitting on had a bad tendency to TIP if the person at one end got up, so I nearly deposited Madeline on the porch floor. Oops.
Atanvarne: "WELL Narie, I just cleaned the porch, actually!"
me: "Um... I was just trying to help out?"
Atanvarne: "You could have just told me that you thought it needed to be washed!"
Abigail: "It's not her fault that it got spilled, the wind knocked it over!"
Atanvarne: "The WIMP? Did you just call her a wimp?"
~~~~~
me: *is trying to get something out of my pocket* *lays down on Madeline's bed and tries to jam hand in pocket*
Madeline: O_o "Erm... just make yourself at home, okay?"
me: "Thanks, I am. Actually, I'm just trying to get something out of my pocket!"
~~~~~
Madeline: *is trying to retrieve something from Andrew's room*
Abigail and I: *are waiting for her*
Abigail: "Are his junk stacks four feet high yet?"
Madeline: "Actually pretty much yes!" *shoves at door*
Abigail and I: *try to force door to open enough so that she can get out*
Madeline: "Arg! Don't break it!"
Abigail: "His door? Or the stuff we're trying to squish behind it?"
(later)
me: "He has it that way so that he never has to go on a diet. If he gains any weight, he will not be able to fit out that door."
~~~~~
Andrew: "I was saying that HE is an over-achiever because he IS!! I am not an over-achiever."
me: "Yeah, who was that thinking of triple-majoring...?"
~~~~~
Andrew: "Look at this! I started a trend! I mowed the grass and now everyone on the street is mowing their grass!"
~~~~~
me: "Abigail, you're too tall! Don't grow any more until the next time I see you."
Abigail: "When will that be?"
me: "I have no idea."
~~~~~
Ethan: *checking out my cloak* "Hey look! It has holes!" (the arm holes)
me: *evil laughter* "The better to grab you with!!!"
~~~~~~
Alexandra: "Daddy, my burger tastes like the gas grill."
Emma: "That's because he cooked it on the gas grill!"
Dr. C: "Actually it's because all the oil dripped down and then it caught on fire and then it shot up all over everything."
~~~~~
Sophia: "Daddy burnt the burgers!"
Emma: "That's because last time they were raw!!"
~~~~~
Mom: "Andrew just added a Dr. Suess book to his philosophy library. Do you remember Did I Ever Tell You How Lucky You Are?"
me: "What was the book?"
Mom: "Did I Ever Tell You How Lucky You Are --"
me: (thinking that was her question) "No, wait, what was the book?"
Mom: "Did I Ever Tell You How Lucky You Are."
me: "Wha... OHHHHH!" 
*and there was great laughter*
Mom: "I guess that would be a no."
~~~~~
Mrs. C: "And Andrew lost his calc book..."
Andrew: "I did what?"
Mrs. C: "You lost your calculus book and had to redo a bunch of the lessons."
Andrew: "What? I don't remember that. Are you sure it was me?"
Mrs. C: "Yes. It was you. You lost your book. And had to redo a bunch of it."
Andrew: "I completely do not remember that!"
me: "Apparently he lost his memory as well as his book."
*uproarous laughter*
~~~~~
me: "And Sam...wise..."
Madeline: "Sam...pause...wise."
~~~~~
Ethan: *comes running in with a Ken whose head keeps coming off*
me: "Ethan, please stop throwing that head across the floor at us!"
Ethan: *evil laughter* "It just falls off! I can't---" *head falls off again at my feet* "--help it!"
~~~~~
Atanvarne, Madeline, Atara and I were upstairs in their bedroom giggling hysterically.
me: "Erhem! *cough* Madeline, WE are supposed to be the mature ones here!"
Madeline: *stops laughing* "We are!"
me: frightening thought!
~~~~~
Atanvarne: *holding sachet out to Atara and me* "Here, smell this! It smells wonderful!" *chokecoughsputter*
Madeline: "ATANVARNE! REALLY!"
me: "Atanvarne" *laugh* "you could never *laugh* be an Assassin..." *is laughing too hard to finish the thought*
Madeline: (quite helpfully finishing it for me) "That is, you'd take a small bite of some food you had poisoned to prove to your victim that it really wouldn't hurt them before handing it to them..."
me: "And you'd keel over dead right before they took a bite!"
