FROM THE BOOK
A true story as told by one of my friends about a conversation with her child.
Child: Mom, how do cows get bread?
Mother: Bread? Honey, I don’t think cows use bread.
Child: Well, grandpa said that the cows were going to get bread soon.
Mother: Hmm … I think you need to have grandpa to explain that one to you!

I am having cod for dinner. Having cod for dinner with Fuzzbutt in the house is a challenge. He sits there and gives me the guilt look. You know the one. It is the same look a woman gives a man when she feels that he has not performed a chore satisfactorily … He stares me down for fish. I give him some. He inhales it like a Great Dane with a hot dog and then he stares at me again. It makes my dinner so stressful! I have to choke down my meal in a hurry just to avoid the look!

I had to go to the doctor’s office the other day for a problematic hemorrhoid. He said, Well, L.E. you are almost fifty-two and still haven’t had a colonoscopy yet! We can send you to one guy who can fix both of those issues! Lucky me!
They will band the offending blood vessels down there! he continued as I turned pale. After that, they will get you set up for your colonoscopy prep and procedure!
The tone of his voice sounded as if I had won a Bahamas cruise or something, but the visions inside of my head suggested horror and agony. He is my ex-wife’s doctor too! I also suspect he may like her better! Did she play a part in this? Are they in cahoots?
