Leprechauns

"Are leprechauns small?" I asked Joey.

"Um, I think so," he replied absently; we were watching Gladiator on TV.

"Well, I wish I had one."

Joey kind of smirked. I also wish I had a panda, koala, squirrel, ferret, chipmunk, reindeer, gopher and...

"I'm sure you do." He said.

"No, seriously. If I had one I'd keep him in my pocket all the time, and whenever I got kind of bored or sleepy I'd bring him out of my pocket and have him do a little dance for me. I think I would like that."

I giggled just thinking about it.

But do they make girl leprechauns? Because if I was going to keep it in my pocket I think I'd be more comfortable with a girl leprechaun.

Joey, get on it. I want one of those for Christmas.
