I know from experience that putting a toad or grasshoppers in your pocket doesn't work real well.
For one thing...toads pee when they're scared.
Not good.
I had a major scare.
I don't do the bills, you know? I just hand them all to Steve and he pays them. I give him a "wish list" of groceries and he gets the most important stuff and some extras if he can. Right? Ok.
He sent me an email, telling me about how much we had left over after bills. So I says "What about this electric bill?" He said "I'm pretty sure I already paid it, open it and see." So I open it and it's this hugh bill...I nearly dropped dead of a heart attack. A disconnect notice at that. My chest just felt like a ton of bricks got tossed on it.
So I emailed him back and he called the electric company. Emailed me back that he had indeed paid that bill last month and we have $28 credit!
I need a cup of decaf tea (and a healthy shot of whiskey.)
