All’s Fair in Love and Laptops

Momma in Laptop Timeout:

Frannie’s damn collar is carolling down the hall behind me.

Past Beavis and Butthead the twins bunked behind the 1st closed door.

Past the next closed door which cages holds the tazmanian devil baby.

If they wake, I may be forced to punt  send the bitch Frannie back to the living room.  Where a mouth watering buffet of plastic trains, wooden puzzles, and fully stuffed plush animals awaits her.

But, if she is successful in completing the gauntlet of lite sleepers, she has a chance at a brief snooze atop the forbidden kingdom our bed.

Hubs taps away on my laptop back in the  sweat shop  kitchen.  He types like a girl successful businessman. ”click, click, click”……his delicate nails surgeon’s hands sound.

I am writing on a piece of real paper with a sharpie pen.  Secretly, I am getting high on the fumes enjoying the nostalgic feel.  (bite pen top while pondering my next thought)

That is  my freakin’ our laptop.  I bought it just for me to share with my man whenever he needs it because our home office wouldn’t impose enough can get lonesome.

He will freak when if he sees the bitch Frannie on his pillow bed right now.

I don’t want to should get her down from it.  I wouldn’t want to miss him shitting that brick lying close beside me tonight.

Ahhhh….silent acts of hostility selfless acts of love.

      So can you count those times on one hand or do you need both hands and both feet? LOL

    Nice! Generally, what’s unsaid is so much funnier that what’s said. You proved that today!

    Loved your drawing but I have a slight problem with it. You dipicted yourself as having a big butt by making a rather large hump in the covers on your side of the bed. Your butt is actually perfect…….no cross-out needed

      Thanks for stopping by! Cross-outs are one of my favorite posts! I try not to do to many and overwhelm readers, but I would do one everyday. Its part of my sarcastic nature, I spose!

    You lost me, buddy. I mean, I imagine I get what youre stating. I have an understanding of what you are saying, but you just appear to have forgotten about that you will find some other folks within the world who see this matter for what it genuinely is and might not agree with you. You may be turning away many of individuals who might have been followers of your site.
