Well, duh...

Add this to the long list of things that I never really thought about, and then one day I said "Ooooooh, I get it!"

Like the time I was writing with a pen and then suddenly understood why it was a called a 'ball point pen.'

Or the time I stopped to think about the word 'boardwalk.'

Yesterday E was talking about horses, as usual, and she said something about the pony's tail....and I suddenly said, "Oh! Ponytail! 'Cause it looks like a pony tail! I get it!"

I am so smrt.
