Like Mother, Like Daughter Part X

Geek Girl has just showered, and needs to get her hair combed with detangler. This is one of Mama Geek's jobs.

I overheard Mama Geek telling Geek Girl to get dressed and they would put the detangler in, followed by Geek Girl's cheerful "OK".

Then silence. For several minutes.

I investigated, only to find Geek Girl was dressed, but reading. I went to remind Mama Geek that they were supposed to comb Geek Girl's hair, only to find Mama Geek was also reading.

Much guilty laughter ensued, until Geek Girl said, "Daddy, maybe you should be reading, too!"

So the Geek House was silent for some time. Inside the Plex, by Steven Levy, if you must know.
