A Phineas and Ferb Moment Brought to You by Geronimo!

I guess I should explain a little.

Well, I suppose I might as well go ahead and admit that yes, I am a 44 year old woman who loves Phineas and Ferb. I blame Gaby for this. And Disney. But mostly Gaby. Gaby loves Phineas and Ferb. Gaby loves the Disney Channel which happens to be where Phineas and Ferb live. But she mostly loves Phineas and Ferb.

I happen love one of the characters on Phineas and Ferb; Isabella. She's adorable. A wee bit annoying, but adorably annoying. There's one thing that's endeared her to my heart and soul more than anything else. It's become sort of a "thing" on the show, her trademark question, "Whatcha doin'?"

Here, I'll show you:

So, earlier this evening me and Gareth were cuddled on the sofa watching some show on H2 (the History Channel's second channel) about the apocolypse, and questioning the logic of some silly scenario. All the while Geronimo was sitting at our feet, just looking at us. He wasn't just looking, he was, in particular, glaring at me, because I was in his coveted spot; the sofa cushion in the middle. He's rather Sheldonish about that particular spot on the sofa (here, watch this and you'll understand what I mean by "Sheldonish." Go ahead, I'll wait.) and he was giving me the "ears back, eyes half-shut" expression which clearly said, "Um would you mind moving your big furless butt off of MY SPOT. That's my spot. You're in my spot. That is the perfect spot in the world and you're in it! I sit there. You do not sit there. That's my spot!"

I kind of laughed at him and told him to sit where I normally sit, on the right hand side of the sofa. I patted the cushion next to me and then I tickled him under the chin and pretty much forgot he was there.

During a commercial break I noticed that he had jumped up onto the recliner which is adjacent to the sofa. However, it wasn't the fact that he had gotten up there that made me notice him, it was how he was laying and looking at me. Right at me.

Geronimo was having a totally adorable and irresistible Isabella moment.

Incidentally, when I got up to use the bathroom he wasted no time in reclaiming his coveted spot on the sofa.
