Notes, written and responses delivered with a sarcastic one.

This is a note I left on the counter this morning for Bob & Michelle. Michelle my loving (and oh so grateful for all I do for her,) child called me at work. I quote, "I'm thinking of having you micro chipped in case you wander outside of the yard." end quote! (I realize that stating "quote" and "end quote" whilst using quotation marks is redundant, I am accentuating my point, not exhibiting any further signs of confusion!)

I, of course, took great umbrage at that remark. As an ironic aside, I did end up working late, unscheduled to do so. Unlike TOMORROW, which IS THURSDAY, where I am scheduled to work late.

What no funny stuff from Bob ???

Bob was diverted from his usual caustic comments by my arriving home with a bag of pepperonis. Doesn't take much to keep him happy you know! He'd been whinging for days over there not being a single pepperoni in the house. Apparently it is hard to function pepperoniless! Bringing the pepperonis diverted attention from my confusing the dats and from my buying "extra smooth" peanut butter which, according to Bob, was "just not right!"

Re: my boss... have you met him? :)

I am confused that Bob cannot get own pepperoni or peanut butter for that matter....or has he been microchipped also and cannot leave the yard?

1- apparently pepperoni purchasing is my job.

2- no Bob is not micro chipped though I have been unable to lose him no matter how hard I try.

3- he simply seldom chooses to leave the couch, never mind the yard! hehe

ps... to be fair...he does dishes and laundry
