“What ya say, Little One. It’s cool now. How about a ruckus?”
“I found the right ball. Hard to tear myself away.”
“Well, at least get off the porch and play.”
“Not sure ball wants to get in the turf.”
“You talk like that ball has a personality.”
“Trust me. A big personality.”
“So it is telling you it doesn’t like the turf?”
“Yeah. She says the turf tickles.”
“I’ve never heard of such a thing. What does she say about your mouth all over her?”
“She likes it. Says it is like a massage.”
“You have an imagination. I’ll give you that.”
“Haven’t you ever made friends with a toy?”
“I sure have. Never had one talk to me, though.”
“Like many things, you must listen to hear.”
“Yeah, well. I’m listening to the sound of breakfast in the bowl.”
“That is always a good sound.”
“Maybe your ball would like some kibble.”
“She’s a vegan, but I think I’ll join you.”
“You kill me. A vegan? Now I’ve heard everything.”
“Hey, mom. Any vegan yogurt for my ball?”

The power of the ball is so strong that it overcomes the urge for a ruckus. It even held its own against food. Maybe Twiggy should seek a BA support group.
