At the end of the Many (2+1) hours, we were reeling with fatigue, reel we and notice senior he man man.

Mini-B. replied that he'd fallen asleep Many (2+2) times and was feeling poorly, uh-oh man.

 

Just then on our trip casa-ward, religious officiant texted us that he couldn't do the funeral, no man.

This led to much flurrying, us-mortuary-us-mortuary-us-relatives-us, sigh man.

We can keep the funeral on the original day if we can find an officiant, si man.

We can change the funeral to Wednesday and have an officiant, si man.

We finally told the mortuary to try till Friday afternoon to find someone, if not then Wednesday man man.

 

Ex-Mrs.-T-B. then texted to implore us to come pick up Mini-B., big surprise there man.

A text-argument ensued, last thing we needed man.

 

We wearily typed up the account forms for Uncle T-B.'s changes, managed somehow we man.

A Craigslist person then wanted to buy one of Mama T-B.'s items, "today if possible man" man.

This person further wanted us to "meet in the middle" distance-wise, such gall man.

Ex-she man cooked her notorious* chicken soup for Mini-B.'s lunch, guaranteed action man.

     *with ginger and of course cilantro, reason never to remarry ex-she man man

 

Mini-B. largely more himself even after fever rose to over Many00 F. again, better sign man.

He got us to buy him 2 video games,   man.

 

We began erranding, errant we man.

Din-din was miscellaneous scraps of stuff, ingest we man.

Ex-Mrs.-T-B. fell asleep on couch and began snoring, snore ex-she man man.

 

Game was boring, blowout man.

Ex-Mrs.-T-B. eventually left and Mini-B. went upstairs, bye ex-she and wee man man.

We returned to our research, re-research we man.

 

Mini-B.'s din-din was most of the rest of ex-Mrs.-T-B.'s soup, ingest wee man.

He then began showing us hilarious videos, most very good man.

 

Mini-B. struggled to take his pills, mental block + gag reflex wee man man.

Saturday GS/ES report, see man:

23 hours ago, TBoneTX said:

We have itineraried Many (2+2) ESs and 1 GS for Saturday, aspirational we man.

We didn't leave the casa till half-of-half after 1 p.m., day hosed man.

We therefore had to triage, where to visit first man.

We will defer one ES until Sunday, all other itineraried ones gone to man.

 

Two ESs were losers, oh well man.

The GS, if not phantom, closed down HOURS before promised end-time,   man.

 

The first ES yielded the take, see man:

 -- book, full bottle Suave Professionals conditioner, Many (2x2x2x2) warshcloths* = 

          $Many ($2+1), steal man

Total = $Many ($2+1)

 

*a couple to keep, the rest to sell to ex-Mrs.-T-B. or to give to Mama-ex-Mrs.-T-B., si man

[TBoneTX 48,739]

Thrilling Saturday non-GS/ES report, see man:

 

We wanted to zzz-in and let Mini-B. do similarly, exhausted we and sick wee man man.

Ex-Mrs.-T-B. phoned us before our alarm,   man.

Ex-Mrs.-T-B.:  "How is Mini-B., huh man?  Have you checked on him, huh man?  If not, why not, huh man?"

T-B. [groggy]:  "He needs zzz, si man, and we're letting him zzz-in, si man."

Ex-Mrs.-T-B.:  "You should check on him, si man!  I'm coming over now, si man."

We reluctantly rousted our carcass and went downstairs, sigh man.

 

We were still uncaffeinated when ex-Mrs.-T-B. barged in with use of her casa-key, barge ex-she man man.

She beelined upstairs and burst into Mini-B.'s room, good grief man.

She then barged downstairs and went aysheep at us, see man:

"Look at all the hair and filth in his bathroom, si man!  How can he live like this, huh man?!"

We responded that he sheds like a longhair miu and cleans it up himself, si man.

Ex-Mrs.-T-B. seized cleaning products and noisily up-cleaned Mini-B.'s bathroom, sigh man.

 

During all this, Uncle T-B. called to report that he was suicidal from his tinnitus, we can do no more man.

Mama T-B. then called with further instructions about informing family about EA T-B.'s funeral,  man.

 

Ex-Mrs.-T-B. told us to follow us out to the ex-Mrs.-T-B.-mobile, follow we man.

She burst into tears and said, "I'm going to call the court and take him away from you, si man!  Are you too cheap to call a maid, huh man?"

We said that we've been consumed with elder care and funeral arrangements, si man.

She continued to aysheep in similar vein, si man.

"I don't want to spend my year-end alone, no man!  I'll pick him up and take him with me today, si man!"

We agreed to this, no choice man.

(We figured that she was heartbroken about canceling her cruise, truth man.)

 

We arranged for a maid visit on Tuesday, soonest feasible man.

Mini-B., afebrile, showered and participated in changing his bed linens, mild surprise man.

Lunch for Mini-B. was RTG, ingest wee man.

We got him packed and called ex-Mrs.-T-B., who appeared right away and drove off with him man.

We'd ingested only Many (2x2x2 +1) Costco popcorns, but figure that we get a flu exemption, exempt for this Two Guys week man.

 

Breakfast/lunch for us was a turkey sandwich, ingest we man.

We didn't leave the casa till half-of-half after 1 p.m., see Saturday GS/ES report man.

We spent Many (2+2) hours out of the casa, ES-ing plus erranding man.

Din-din was at a Chinese buffet (no, not THAT one, calm down Bro G man).

We consumed Many (2+1) plates heaped with beef & chicken, ingest we man.

Dessert was a Many'th (2+2th) plate containing Many (2x2x2) halved hard-boiled eggs, no yolkin' man.

 

Serviced indignant miu, service miu we man.

Finally lay down for a siesta, much-needed man.

Halfway through it, ex-Mrs.-T-B. called,   man.

"I've found another cruise leaving on Manycember Many'nd, si man!" said ex-she man man.

We asked how long it was, ask we man.

"It's for a week -- Manycember Many'nd through Manycember Many'th, si man!" bubbled ex-she man man.

 

Later, she e-mailed the itinerary, si man:  Mexico, Belize, Honduras, si man.

So we lose not only 2 days of current Two Guys week but 1 or 2 days of NEXT Two Guys week, sigh man.

And ex-Mrs.-T-B. keeps gallivanting around while we'll be stuck with elder- & Mini-Miu care, si man.

And they won't be around to come to EA T-B.'s funeral, no man.

We know that ex-Mrs.-T-B. is depressed and aysheep, but something's wrong with this picture, conclude we man.

This, and the disrespect/disregard shown us when the cheaps are down, reinforces our suspicion that nothing will ever re-result, no man.

At least Mini-B. appears to be consistently afebrile, little crumb of happiness amidst all this man.

 

No party with the rubias tonight, no cavort we man.
