Peggy:  Why are you so afraid of a little mouse , anyway ?
Peggy: Well , it all started when I was _ five _ . You see , I found this little stray Chihuahua puppy in the yard . I snuck it past my mother , and I kept it in my room . I slept with it and snuggled it and kissed it and then one day it got sick .
Al: Hmm , and still you go on kissing others .
Peggy: Anyway , I took it to my kindergarten teacher and I said , " What 's wrong with my dog ? " She said , " That 's not a dog , dear . It 's a mouse . " And then she threw up ... and then all the kids threw up . And then , they made up this little song about me : " Mouse in your face , worms in your hair . Where 's the little mouse girl ? There , there , there . " Well , that 's sweet . Thank you very much .
Al: Well , kids , I think we learned something today . Do n't touch your mother , she 's got cooties .
