So yesterday - I text Jim (around 2 or so) and tell him to text or call me a half hour before he leaves for home. You see, dinner was going to take about an hour and some and I wanted to make sure I had plenty of time to cook without sitting down at 7:00. He texts back "K". So 5:30 rolls around and no text, no call. 5:38 I get a text, "OMW". So I text back, "Are you OYW or leaving in a half hour?" Jim texts and says, "OMW". Great! So I call..."Um, you're on your way? What happened to my request for a half hour?" Jim: "I'm a half hour from home." Me: "So...you enjoy getting yelled at is what you're saying. I mean, you responded to my text with a 'K' so I assumed that meant you read it and I know you understand English so what's the deal?" Jim: "I'm sorry." Me: "I'm getting that tattooed on your forehead!"
Then, he comes home and I tell him, "Just so you know - after dinner, I'm going to be asking you to help me clean upstairs - vacuum, change sheets etc. - and when I do, I better not EVEN get a 'can it wait 15 minutes'. You better just do it." Jim: "K". So then I point to a letter - addressed in my handwriting to the Clermont County Water Resource Department (the water bill) and I say, "Will you go put that in the mailbox?" And Jim says, "Is it a check?" Me: "No. It's a letter to my pen pal...at the water department." Jim: "I ask the stupidest questions." Me: "Yep, you do."
I'll say it for you: Poor Jim...but you know, he just asks for it...truly.
K - well, Maggie is here - currently examining the back of her eyelids...as is Eva so I figure I might as well get a in a kitty cat nap myself. Later!
