The Hellhole

Friday, October 14, 2005

Although he wouldn't leave it as a comment ("typing takes too long") The Boss reports a Salmon Day moment of his own - see two previous posts and comments for the explanation of "Salmon Day".

There was a bad smell in his kitchen which lingered despite cleaning surfaces, fridge, etc. Finally he found the source. At a previous date undetermined, but more than a week ago, The Boss wanted a glass of milk. He poured it, sipped and replaced the full milk glass in the china cabinet where the glassware is stored. The milk soured, curdled and stunk up the kitchen.

It is perhaps worth noting that The Boss was not impressed with Maria's tale of finding the TV remote in the fridge. "Every single time we lose it, that's where it is," he reports. "I blame the kids."

"Don't the girls have their own television?" I ask.

"Yes. What's your point? I said I blame the kids."

  • Man, and when stuff like that happens in our household, we think we're getting senile before our time. We didn't know that it happens to everyone. What a relief...especially since you guys are way worse than we are. ;)

  • Flippy - I had that conversation with The Boss and another friend, specifically if we DID get Alzheimer's, how could we tell? Who would notice?

    Maria - it's way harder for me because I don't have kids. I'm forced to blame some pretty bizarre things on the dog and cat.

  • But MAAA-AAAHM! Bo and I sneak into the house after you're both in bed and change the programming on the remote and hide Daddy's tools and unplug the DVD player and mess up all the settings on his computer. At least once a week. We take turns.

  • hehehehe, that is a brilliant thing to do, sneak into the house and just confuse the hell out of your mum... sorry Mrs. M (Mikey :^)) you know I love you :^) and if I lived close enough, I would visit and leave the remote in the fridge just for you.
