this one is gonna take a while...
when the eXMan couldn't find a screwdriver (he could NEVER find a screwdriver) he'd go out and buy a new one - every stinkin' time ... and he never, never, ever put them into the gigantic rolling toolbox that i gave him for christmas ... he had dozens and dozens of screwdrivers - multiple duplicates of every kinda screwdriver you can imagine ... he didn't do that with wrenches or hammers or saws or pliers or wire cutters or any of his other tools - just screwdrivers
anywho, when Melissa handed this to me for stitching, i asked her
what?!? who needs a gazillion oil cans?!? what the what?!?
she just shrugged and muttered something about how NOT FUN it was to trace them ...
stab stab stab - stitching them isn't gonna be any fun, either
just sayin'
there should be a quote here about oil - but none of the quotes that i read were anything but depressing, so i got nothin'
Maybe because they have a lot of oil? I dunno either......
ReplyDeleteThis had me smiling and thinking about the story of him coming in from the garage hand over his forehead and telling you not to freak out that he needed stitches. You pealed his hand away and told him he didn't. He was stubborn, yeah I got from both of you, and you took him to the ER. Spoiler he did need stitches but he did get a Tetanus shot. Ha!
ReplyDeleteThere sure is a lot of details in those cans!
ReplyDeleteYour man was not alone. We lived beside a guy that had literally hundreds of screwdrivers - all bought for the same reason. When we helped them pack to move I think there was an entire big packing box filled with nothing but screwdrivers.
