So…I got sprung from jail (ummm, I meant the rehab facility)
I have to go go back tonight.
I came in the house this morning. It’s obvious they had a fast clean up. But it’s was clean, I was happy.
Son-of-a-Wrek is doing a craw-fish boil. He got some nice shrimps too.
He’s cooking up a party. Oh, my. I hope I live thru it.
The weird thing in the house is all the clocks were off or the wrong. Even the micro-wave oven and my huge vintage VCR machine. (Yeah, I know but VCR tapes are cheap. All junk shops have them for about a quarter, but I digress…) I’ve had that clock working on that since the late eighties. But it wasn’t anymore. Just 4 blinking red lights.
I stared at the lights. Yep, I’m being hypnotized.
I broke away from the lights just in time. (Hmmm??)
I sent the Li’l wrekker to get paper plates. I told her get AA batteries and AAA batteries. And C batteries. Don’t know why the C battery, but just in case.
I walked around the upstairs all the alarm clocks were blinking. Why didn’t these people notice this. I’m getting afraid. Mass hypnosis? Hmmm?
I used exactly 2 batteries. The Li’l wrekker spent approximately $40 bucks. She got some of every kind.
I have one old cheapy wall clock in the hall that takes 2 AAA, too run.
Down stairs all the clocks were all on but the times were wrong. Except the Microwave. Impossible to set and chirps every 4 minutes to kindly let you know. Accckkk!
My Grandfather clock has a mind of it’s own. Never has worked right. I dismiss that.
Sounds like aliens may have visited the house while it wasn’t under your supervision, and they stole a bunch of time. That’s how that “missing time” stuff works, right? If no Wreks recall being visited by aliens, that means it therefore must have happened, and the experience was during the missing time! Or something like that…
Oh, really? You don’t? Let me bring you up to date:
I think the aliens are already here. Think wasps or bees. They are equipped with the probes. The kind that have a little bite to them (I know wasps or bees don’t bite, not even if they’re dead)
Don’t forget the Murder Hornets. They are upping their game. All the wasps the Orkin man killed, in this place. And the few ran away. We’re on the list, I’m sure.
It seems only one clock had batteries.
$40.something later “I’ve still not gotten enough batteries for the upcoming Armageddon)” says Son-of-a-Wrek.
Let me look at the receipt. BBinnaM
Yep. She went to Walgreens. $40 for batteries I never needed. And $65 for the Li’l wrekker some make-up and hair products. I think. One item is called: Cake 12oz. I’m not sure , but I don’t think Cake is liquid…
Oh, look, she bought a box of bandaids. So helpful.
You know my house is built on some sacred Indian burial ground/black hole.
I’ve been gone awhile. So…my return has been put on emergency. They had to be worrying about bigger things like a sinkhole and my house falls in.
Accckkk! Worms be down there and tectonic plates.
