Ding!

 


Dr. Grumpy: "Okay, so at the last visit..."

Mrs. Bickerson: "Doc, what's with the box of clothes by your briefcase?"

Dr. Grumpy: "Oh, my kids cleaned out clothes that don't fit them anymore, so I'm dropping those off at the charity store on the way home."

Mrs. Bickerson: "That's a good idea. We have some old chairs I've been meaning to donate."

Mr. Bickerson: "No, we're not getting rid of them. I can use them. They just need to be re-done. Why can't we donate the old vacuum in the back closet?"

Mrs. Bickerson: "What do you mean? It still works."

Mr. Bickerson: "It's not like you ever use it. It's taking up space."

Mrs. Bickerson: "What, like one square foot in a room you never go in?"

Mr. Bickerson: "We don't need it."

Mrs. Bickerson: 'What about that fucking dune buggy you got on Craig's List that takes up the whole shed and that you've never driven? It's bigger than a tank."

Mr. Bickerson: "Really? How about the stupid exercise machine you don't use? Let's get rid of that."

Mrs. Bickerson: "Oh, it is SO on now. Let's talk about that collection of racing photos piled behind the couch..."

    Did you ever get your exam done and make your recommendations for treatment to the Battling Bickersons before their appointment time out?

    Maybe you should put your son's old clothes up on Craig's List.

    Perhaps the Bickersons will end up putting each other up on Craig's List.

    "I read the ad wrong on Craigslist, and I thought I was buying a collection of RACIST photos. Boy, did the other guys in the Klavern give me a hard time about that."

    "And what about that big bottle of rat poison you bought that takes up so much space in the closet? What are you ever going to do with it?"

    "And what about all those hostages you've been keeping tied up in the basement? It's been over three years and you still haven't gotten around to writing a single ransom note! Can you just kill them already so we can have the space back?"

    Ahhh, yes, the dune buggy in the garage ..LOL The hubby bought one many years ago, and it sat around until the motor froze up (I am not a motor person, so don't ask). I couldn't believe it when he finally consented to sell the stupid thing, AND actually found a buyer ....

    I fear that they could be my husband and I. Part is we like performing in front of people. We often get our caregivers to laugh outright.

    (lets not talk about his stuff in the shed and he won't talk about my sewing projects I haven't finished)
