Thrilling Saturday non-ES report, see man:

 

The coffee table wouldn't fit in the T-B.-mobile's back seat, no way man.

It only halfway fit in the T-B.-mobile's trunk, strapped in with trunk open man.

 

We were wondering whether a Smokey would pull us over, wonder we man.

Sure enough, red/blue lights were flashing, uh-oh man.

 

The Smokey said to us, spaketh he to we man:

"I'm concerned that driving with your trunk open is a safety hazard, si man."

We explained that we were the famous POTS Business Typhoon, self-reveal we man.

The Smokey immediately offered to transport the coffee table in his Tahoe, smart Smokey man.

He followed us, lead the way we man.

He even carried it into the casa for us, didn't trip on any miu-toys fortunately man.

And only one line of the above is untrue, hee hee hee man.

 

Mini-B. wasn't presentable and stayed upstairs, reticent wee man.

We explained the situation thusly, explain we man:

     "We thought we'd be bear bait, and sure enough but what we got a Blue Light Special, si man.  Smokey thought about givin' us a bear bite and almost a green stamp, si man.  We sweet-talked him into takin' the coffee table in his gumball machine straight here to the casa, si man.  He carried it straight in and gave us Manys ([2+1]s) and Manys ([2x2x2]s), si man.  We're tempted to write the big Papa Bear to commend Smokey, si man."

 

Mini-B. replied, "Many-Many ([2x2x2 +2]-[2+2])," cognizant we man.

Miu immediately climbed onto new table to inspect it thoroughly, busybody miu man.

Mini-B. liked the new coffee table, which is perfect for our setup, glee man.

Overdoing instruction, Mini-B. used half the wasp-killer spray to nuke the wasp, thorough wee man.

 

Miu wanted miu-treats and lunch a couple of hours earlier than usual, intemperate miu man.

We told miu that she would forget this episode and want a repeat later, know miu we man.

Sure enough, miu wanted more treats and got an extra din-din later,  man.

 

Went to ex-Mrs.-T-B.'s still-empty casa to get Mini-B.'s basketball uniform, amazingly right there man.

Took Mini-B. to final game of summer, chauffeur wee man we man.

Mini-B.'s team lost Many to Many, either narrowly or by blowout man.

On the up side, when they fell behind Many to Many, we thought they'd never catch up, pessimistic we man.

However, they probably did, depending on the precise meaning of Many, Many, Many, & Many man.

 

After off-cooling at the casa, Mini-B. wanted din-din, consent we man.

Din-din was Many (2x2x2x2) air-fried "chicken & cheese taquitos" from Costco, ingest Two Guys man.

 

Shortly, Mini-B. wanted us to play basketball on the patio, consent we man.

Our conversation made us sound like a cheap bad guy, Mini-B. upset man.

Gah I hate scheduling the kids well visits. I don't want the earliest I want our regular Pediatrician. If I can't stick to one Pediatrician then there is no point staying at that clinic. That Ped is the only reason I still take them there. Gees,  get with the program ppl, too many doctors then nobody knows what the heck is going on. I'm not asking for an emergency appointment and want the first doctor. I specifically asked for one doctor and then get sent a confirmation to another doctor.  Just emailed them them back. I'm not going to keep bringing them there if they can't get their act together.

The bank president phoned from out of state to beg us to reconsider, frantic he man.
