When Will it Stop?

Bud: Where's Bailey?

Ernie: In the closet.

Bud: What's she doing in the closet?

Ernie: I don't know - who am I, her keeper?

Bud: I thought maybe she might have said something.

Ernie: She just grabbed an umbrella, galoshes and ran into the closet.

Bud: An umbrella and galoshes?

Ernie: Did I stutter?

Bud: What's wrong with you?

Ernie: Oh, I guess it's just that time of the month.

Bud: You don't have those, moron.

Ernie: I don't?

Bud: Only women.

Ernie: Well, why are my breasts tender?

Bud: You don't have those either.

Ernie: Oh, then I guess I don't need this bra.

Bud: I think I know why she's in the closet.

Ernie: Oh?

Bud: To get away from you.

Ernie: That's not what she said.

Bud: I thought you didn't know anything.

Ernie: I don't. At least I don't know what the closet has to do with it.

Bud: With what?

Ernie: Huh?

Bud: The closet. Bailey.

Ernie: She was mumbling something about "when it rains it pours" and "the sky is falling".

Bud: She didn't say that last one. That was in your bedtime story last night.

Ernie: Did I thank you for reading me to sleep?

Bud: Your snoring did it for you.

Ernie: I don't snore.

Bud: *snort*

Ernie: She's had a bad week.

Bud: Yeah. The internet, the car, the toilet running, the leak under the sink, the garage door breaking, the cat pissing on the dry-clean only comforter, Baileyboo shredding the toilet paper.

Ernie: Um, Bud?

Bud: Yes?

Ernie: That was me.

Bud: What?

Ernie: I shredded the toilet paper.

Bud: Why?

Ernie: I thought it was fun.

Bud: That's what you get for thinking.

Ernie: I beg your pardon?

Bud: So she's hiding in the closet.

Ernie: Yes, it was the last phone call.

Bud: What phone call?

Ernie: The one saying that her uncle had died.

Bud: Oh, my.

Ernie: Yes. I guess it's just one more thing.

Bud: What are those cords going into the closet?

Ernie: The TV, phone, computer, mini-fridge ...

Bud: Ohhh, she's staying there a long time.



(Bailey here: btw, I'm on myspace now. Don't know what I'm doing there, but I'm there. Link on the right under miscellanious. And I have no idea how to do this friend thing. I tried one to someone who I know won't turn me down, so if I don't hear from her, then I did it wrong. *sigh*)

Thanks guys - long day at work. I can check my emails there, but I can't get on any blogs. Bummer. I'm doing okay - it just seems to be one thing after another.

catslady said...

Oh, I'm with Michele. So sorry with all your problems and there's a lot of them but God I love those voices!!!!!!

I'm sort of on myspace. My daughter's friend and my young friend from England insisted I belong but darn if I can figure most of it out but I'm going to try to add you and vice versa :)

Lis said...

*hugs* I'm so sorry, sounds like a really tough week. I'll try and friend you on myspace. I'm easily confused over there lol

I'm so sorry, Eve. You'd think it would stop some time for a little while at least. I guess if you have a big family, it's more likely to be like this. I know my father and two of my uncles died within a year of each other. At that point, my mother and her remaining siblings did not have an original mate among them. Only my youngest uncle was married to his second wife and his first wife is still living as well. Somehow it just happens like that. Of course, we don't really have contact with my father's more far-flung relatives since he was the only child left in his family after the war. One brother died before it and two are MIA.

Hugs and prayers.
