Judi

We went to breakfast at Cracker Barrel yesterday morning. When we came back out, his car wouldn't start - dead battery. Turns out, he says he's been having trouble with it off and on since SUMMER. Rather than murder him and stuff his body in a nearby drainage pipe, I went back inside to find someone who had jumper cables.

9:51 am

Shirlockc

if we're telling exasperation stories ...

9:51 am

Flask1

thanxa again Shirl...you're a star!

9:51 am

9:51 am

Shirlockc

mom said "involve your father" so i asked him to cut the gingerbread ACCORDING TO THE TEMPLATES

9:52 am

Judi

I profiled a tall guy in a red plaid lumberjack shirt and said, "you look like someone who would have jumper cables." He did and we were rescued in short order. Dunderhead hubby wanted to call Mazda roadside assistance. I told him he would be charged out the a** for that.

9:52 am

Shirlockc

he decides to not follow the template and cut a long strip instead so that we can have a round house

9:52 am

Judi

He has a tendency to procrastinate for no good reason. Then he turns passive when he might have to ask a stranger a question. Needless to say, we went directly to Pep Boys to buy a battery.

9:54 am

Shirlockc

always go with the lumberjack, cause they're okay, they sleep all night and work all day

9:55 am

Judi

My thoughts exactly, Shirl. LOL!

I would think doing it in a golf cart would be tricky

12:19 pm

MLFAN17

as long as its not moving

12:20 pm

rururocks

well.. it should be moving a little :D

12:21 pm

MLFAN17

12:21 pm

MLFAN17
