kyburgWell, I don't feel stupid anymore.
Was just about ready to go to lunch when a call comes in from Jim.
"Honey, I locked myself out of the house - I have no shoes, no shirt and I only have my wallet. Will you call a locksmith for me please?"
Sure. Do it yourself yellowpages.
I get a hold of Jack. He knows the address. He'll be there in 15 minutes. I try to call back, but the payphone he was at doesn't accept inbound calls. Okay, I know where he is. Yellow pages to the rescue and I'm chatting with the clerk in the mini-market -- "Big blond guy, no shirt, no shoes and likely dancing on the pavement...see him?"
Okay. Stay put, because the best is coming.
I just got the call from Jim telling me he's inside, and okay and $50 poorer.
How did he get locked out? He was playing with the dog. Well, not exactly.
He thought the dog needed a haircut.
He was using his trimmer - with the biggest setting, mind you - on my dog. My Cairn Terror.
"You shishkabobbed the dog?"
Jim also tells me that AAA will reimburse a lockout. I told him he could take care of it.
Oog. Tell me again our brains aren't fried. I dare you.

Date: 2002-08-12 08:14 pm (UTC)No... I did not shave the dog bald. I was using a guide and only thinned out the outer layers.
(Gee, honey, just tell the whole world why don't ya... {meow!})
