The kiddo looked up at me from his table this afternoon and asked simply "where's Ted"? Initially I was confused. I thought maybe he meant where is he within one of the comics. Then it occurred to me that he doesn't realize that Ted is only a character. It's a simple mistake. He's seen himself and I in the comics recently. Logical leap... where's Ted?
So yeah, it's a perfect valid question, but it's also a little sad. He's known Ted all his life by way of pictures on my screen. And there are certainly times when I wish Ted were real.
Then I remember the number of times "Ted" has used my credit cards...
