The Bad Things That Happen When My Wife Is Out of Town
Reha’s out of town again this week. Some training thing about trains. In Omaha. Nebraska. That’s like 74 states away from us. Ack!
All is not well at the Deal Family Compound when she leaves. To wit:
- I can’t sleep and I spend all night buying weird stuff off eBay. Last night I bought a drinking fountain made out of orangutan fur
- I mowed the driveway
- I lost a kid. In the living room
- Multiple visits from the County Sheriff (Hi, Deputy Rollins!)
- Ice cream for every meal
- We are out of T.P. in the bathrooms and she’s the only one who knows how to refill the dispenser
- Many, many arguments with various kids about wearing pants to school
- I lose the will to live and haven’t bathed, shaved or brushed my teeth since she left
See what I mean about the ice cream and the lack of pants:
Come home soon, babe!
At least they’re sharing. Apparently. That’s good, right? Or is Lucas in some kind of zombiefied state?

Sirdar… This is just TWO of the brood! The others were off in the dark corners of the house/plotting revenge and other assaults on humanity.

Really, I'm glad you made it down here. Almost no one ever comes down here. I'm like in a freaking dungeon down here. I get lonely. But not you. YOU made it all the way to the end of the page. For this I think I've a little crush on you. I don't know, is "love" to strong a word to use in this situation? Well, if it's not "love," then it's very strong "like." I'm totally in like with you for coming down here. You are awesome. Please love me back! I know, I know, I shouldn't be all needy, it's not attractive at all, but you don't know how it is to be stuck down here. Who scrolls all the way to the end of a page anymore these days? Anyway, thanks for shedding some light down here in the depths. I appreciate it. Shoot me an email and I'll send you a dollar, OK?
