monkeymom's Diaryland Diary

I don't understand Dora the Explorer.
So I told Kim about how we renamed Diana's kids Scooch and Cougar, and then I told her she would need a new name, too, and that since I named Diana's kids, that it would be fair to let Diana name mine. I said that probably Diana would want to call her Rio, after a song from the oh, 80s? and Kim said Rio? in a pondering kind of voice, because she had never heard of such a thing before. As she walked away from me to take up her usual place in front of her computer, she said we could call her Oreo, because apparently that is the only context in which she can fathom the word Rio, so the joke's on her now because we are calling her Oreo.
Actually Oreo will be a great name for her to use in her new career as an exotic pole dancer, which is what her friends the Harp Girls are saying she is since she lost her job playing the maracas when she was out of school for two days attending the golf sectionals. She came back to find that Jessica had usurped her maracas and Oreo was going to have to play the clavicles? Those two sticks that you hit together to make a hollow clapping sound? Whatever. Anyway, the girls couldn't find the clavicles (I know that is not the right word, but what is?), so they found two poles for Kim Oreo to hit together. So she played the poles during the rehearsal, apparently doing a little hip swing while clapping them together, causing the Harp Girls to call her an exotic pole dancer. Later, back in the orchestra room (where they have plenty of time to put on makeup and dance around with poles, when do they play the actual instruments?), Oreo made up a little dance to go with the clavicle playing, so she is all ready to earn some money - I hope it's enough to put her through college.
OMG, Rachel and Kim are in the other room seriously discussing Dora the Explorer and the ramifications of her gambling problem? I don't know what that's about, but I heard Kim asking why Dora's parents just let her go out exploring by herself. Huh.
