Yes, you read that right. I am postponing the big anniversary contest. I know you all were anticipating the big day but I just couldn’t think with all the banging going on around here. I’ve gotta tell ya, while this place will look a whole lot better after all the work is done, the actual doing of the work is not fun. And I’m not even the one doing it.
It sure can’t be a good sign when you hear the contractor mumbling, “Son of a bitch!” Then there’s this aversion he seems to have for closing the front door. Okay, it’s not like it’s 30 degrees out but 45 isn’t exactly hot. Let’s not even go into the other issue of him leaving the damn seat up every time he goes into my bathroom.
In other news, I have been keeping an eye on the news and so far, there have been no reports of any kidnapping of Americans going on this week. I forget who I was talking to this week about that but I said something like, “They don’t know who they’re dealing with. It would be like The Ransom of Red Chief.” Tomorrow the boys arrive back in D.C. and I’m expecting some interesting stories.
