Take our Buddy's meow for example. He's got this very dramatic I NEED YOU RIGHT NOW!!! sort of meow. He uses his outside voice inside. And no matter how many times I've heard the meow, I go running to see what's wrong. And each and every time there he sits in the middle of the room with not a thing the matter. Entertain me!! Entertain me!!!
Me: "Buddy... it's 5am.. what *is* the problem?"
Buddy: "Problem? What problem? I don't have a problem. But since you're up, could you go ahead and toss me my toy?"
And so it goes, day after day. And still I never learn.
"Whew, I need to rest a little.. all this meowing has worn me out!"
Yesterday we made what seems like a weekly trip to Home Depot. Picked up a new garden hose on this trip. Have you noticed the warnings on the garden hoses these days? {Don't drink from this hose} When I was little we drank from the hose all the time. Of course that might be what is wrong with me today.
Anyway, I digress. So we got this hose. John hooked it up. I came inside because I was about to burst into flames. So I didn't really see the hose until today. I went outside to water and I swear I almost fainted on the spot!!!! I thought the hose was this huge snake. Scared the bejesus out of me. It's a wonder I didn't fall and break something. Not in the yard.. on me!!
The hose is like a dark charcoal gray and it has this greenish stripe along the side of it. I didn't see the stripe on it when we bought it. It was all twisted up nice and neat so you couldn't see it until you unrolled the thing.
So I ran inside to tell John the hose scared me. I thought it was a snake. He sorta laughed and said, "yeah I know". Huh? Like he already realized this and said nothing. Oh, ok... so now I'm planning my revenge. Did I say revenge. Sorry, I meant my REVENGE. ;-)
Until next time,
Hannah
