Let Sleeping Dogs Rant

Thrilling Sunday report, see man:

 

Retrieved Mini-B., early Two Guys experience man.

Mini-B. wanted BK for lunch, too much for us but OK man.

BK procured*, ingest Two Guys man.

     *WUOC, financially savvy we man

 

Ex-Mrs.-T-B. showed up after her Ecu function, giddy ex-she man.

She took Mini-B. back to her casa to retrieve something and for din-din, si man.

Mini-B. pounded on our door a short time later, tearful wee man.

"Mom yelled at me for leaving the garage door open, si man," said wee man man.

"She also gave me this bucket of towels** to fold, si man," said wee man man.

     **then- & ex-Mrs.-T-B.'s infamous kitchen rags, vivid memories thereof we man

"I didn't leave the garage door open, no man; she did and forgot about it, si man," said wee man man.

We asked if Mini-B. had had din-din, ask we man wee man man.

"All I had were a couple of empanadas, si man!" said wee man man.

 

We tried to down-settle Mini-B., si man.

We agreed that garage door wasn't open when we initially retrieved Mini-B., open-&-shut case man.

We asked why ex-she man had sent him with the kitchen rags, puzzled we man.

"She expects me to read her mind all the time, si man!" said wee man man.

"And all she does is dump them into another bucket, si man!" said wee man man.

 

Meanwhile, ex-Mrs.-T-B. had left us a text saying to come outside or call her later, si man.

We tried calling, no answer man.

We then texted, getting "I'm taking a shower, si man," what the dickens man.

We never connected with ex-she man, no man.

 

We allowed Mini-B. to play V.R., si man.

We conquered our laundry load and dished/de-dished the warsher, domestic we man.

We then folded the kitchen rags, just like old times*** man.

     ***we routinely did Many (2+2+2+1) laundry loads every weekend, see man:

          - on Saturday night, the bath towels and the kitchen rags, 2 loads man

          - on Sunday, our stuff, Mini-B.'s stuff, & 2 of then-Mrs.-T-B.'s stuff, Many loads man

 

We told Mini-B. that when ex-Mrs.-T-B. inquires, we shall tell her that the malos kidnapped her rags and are demanding ransom, so there man.

 

Din-din was light, still stuffed from BK Two Guys man.

Mini-B. had onecan of Chef B. S+Ms, ingest wee man.

We had onecan of Chef B. ABCs+12Manys**** (no meatballs), ingest we man.

     ****bought from supermarket's closeout/dent bin, financially savvy we man

Mini-B. then consumed pecan pie donated yesterday by Mama T-B., ingest wee man.

 

We think that both Mini-B. and ex-Mrs.-T-B. are right, but one a bit more than the other, si man.

We dislike this constant tension between the two,  man.

Advice is solicited*****, si man.

     *****as are recommendations of rubias, si man

Mini-B. had a major Inglish paper due from last week, absent wee man man.

He declined group and teechur review of it in favor of our review of it, delegate work uphill man.  

We revised/retyped paper and discussed it with him, impart some learning maybe man.   

Paper*** now uploaded for his teechur****, hopefully redeem his Inglish grade man.

     ***a masterpiece if we may modestly thus say, si man

     ****with whom we communicate solely in haiku, build a literary bond man

We remember the above, si man.

I'll be interested to know how well you do on your Inglish paper!

We had Mini-B. go into his grade archives tonight to check, si and see man.

If he found the right one, it appears that we he got a Many on it, whee and glee man.  

So there is your answer, see man.

This contributed nicely to the overall grade of Many -- si man, Many -- that Mini-B. got in Inglish overall, si man.

Link, see D ma'am:

If you can score a Litter Robot 3 for a good deal (they do come up on Marketplace but you have to POUNCE on them), well worth it.  We also have a Meowant box since Monty joined the household.  It's not too bad, but it's still not the LR3.  

 

I had 2 Smart Scoops in the past (similar to the nature's miracle one).  The first one was ok, the second wasn't the same quality.  Still better than manual scooping of the ole kitty sand though!

Both itineraried ESs yielded the take, see man:

          2 pliers, Many (2+2) screwdrivers, 2 crescent wrenches, Many (2+1) Post-It pads, 

          ~full Kleenex, work gloves, 2 NIP rolls strapping-tape, Many-outlet ([2+2+2]-outlet) wall tap, 

          set of Many (2x2x2) small screwdrivers, half-bottle multivitamins, 2 zippered cash-bags, 

          wire brush, zippered screwdriver set, razor-blade scraper* = $Many ($2x2x2x2x2 +2), 

          deal man

Total = $Many ($2x2x2x2x2 + 2x2x2 -1)

 

These were some of the very few non-rusty tools that we have ever seen at an ES, whee man.

[TBoneTX 45,244]

Thrilling Friday non-ES report, see man:

 

Two Guys both awakened at o'dark-Many by loud monsoon,  man.

Upon return from ES-ing, we serviced demanding miu and siesta'd for nearly 2 hours, zzz we man.

 

Din-din was Costco angusburgers on Costco buns, ingest Two Guys man.

Movie night was No Country for Old Men, good but strange & dissatisfying man.

Many (2+2+1) bowls of Costco popcorn were consumed, ingest Two Guys man.

This tallies to Many (2x2x2x2 +2+1) for the week, quite respectable man.

 

Got Mini-B. embedded at surprisingly reasonable hour, successful we man with wee man man.

Can't blame them I never offer shipping either
