I started out with nothing, and I still have most of it.

I went bald but I kept my comb.  I just couldn't part with it.

My name is not Richard Edward but my friends still call me DickEd

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

 

Awoke before alarm, steamed at the skoolbus situation, :ranting:  man.

 

Breakfast/lunch for us was 3 precooked fried-egg patties, ingest we man.

Breakfast/lunch for Mini-B. was 2 PB&J sandwiches, ingest wee man.

 

Didn't get out of the casa for ES-ing till after 1 p.m., slothful we man.

Got cheap V.D. cards for us*, Mini-B., & miu/mini-miu to give to ex-Mrs.-T-B., cheap we man.

     *calm down, Bro G. man, see man:  ours had a hamster on front, "Hi, man!  I'm the 

          Valentine's Day hamster, si man!"  Inside:  "Don't laugh, no man -- this is how the 

          Easter Bunny got started, si man!"

 

Mini-B. spent all day on phone, perhaps with a rubia, chip off old block wee man man.

We siesta'd for an hour, necessary zzz for we man man.

 

Had Mini-B. not mentioned anything, and had we not pressed for details, we'd have had exactly zero knowledge of Mini-B.' Debait tournament on Saturday, no notice to parents and :ranting:  :ranting:  :ranting:  we man.

As it turns out, the schedule was changed again, no notice to parents and :ranting:  :ranting:  :ranting:  we man.

We had to text the teechur several more times to drag details from him, si and :ranting:  man.

We think we now know the schedule, :ranting:  man.

We can't believe this, no man.

Mini-B.'s middulskool Band teecher always sent multiple notices with every microscopic detail, si man.

The Debait teechur must think that we can read minds, obviously a blank mind man.

The good news is that we can arise a bit later than o'dark-Many, but not much man.

 

Din-din was Costco angusburgers, ingest traditional Friday fare Two Guys man.

Movie night was 2 YouTube episodes of an ex-CIA agent sitting for an interview, watch Two Guys man.

Two bowls of Costco popcorn were consumed, ingest Two Guys man.

This tallies to Many (2x2x2 +2+1) for the week, quota achieved man.

 

Debait teechur had also sprung on us that stoodents should wear Business clothing, shirt slacks tie man.

Mini-B. had his one collared shirt + slacks that still fit, not for much longer man.

His dress shoes, once found, also still fit, not for much longer man.

Ex-Mrs.-T-B. ordered a tie off Amazon and we were to retrieve it from her casa porch, si man.

The time has zero contrast to Mini-B.'s shirt, :girlwerewolf2xn:  man.

She was also to get him a clip-on tie, but this was a tie-tie man.  :girlwerewolf2xn:

She was not going to return to casa till after Many (2x2x2 +1) p.m., conservative estimate man.

We and Mini-B. therefore set forth, set-forthing Two Guys man.

 

First stop was supermarket to buy a pink rose for ex-Mrs.-T-B./Mommy, Mini-B. pick we pay man.

Next was her casa, drag in & empty 2 massively heavy Amazon boxes man.

She ordered the absolute worst miu-litter on the planet, Fresh Step man.  :bonk: 

She ordered 2 industrial-sized bags of adult-miu Meow Mix for mini-miu, :bonk: man.

She ordered 2 slacks for Mini-B. in a waist size Many (2+2) inches too small, :bonk: man.

She ordered the tie as stated, :bonk: man.

We & Mini-B. went to Ross, no clip-on ties there man.

We went to Marshalls, no clip-on ties there man.

We went to Old Navy, no ties of any kind there man.

We ran out of time, stores all closing man.

 

We had a heated discussion with Mini-B., sartorially clueless wee man man.

First, one does NOT wear a tie that's invisible against one's shirt, what's the point man.

Next, one does NOT wear a tie merely to tuck it inside one's shirt, what's the point man.

We can't trust him with one of our few remaining undonated ties, not yet man.

Therefore, he will go just in shirt/slacks, Debait teechur be hanged man.

 

Did not hear from Mama T-B. all day, anomaly man.

We made Mini-B.'s lunch for Saturday, refrigerate we man.

Miu has played with her whirly-tassel toy and attacked the bejesus out of it, huntress miu man.

 

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

We have itineraried 2 ESs proximal to the skool where we're dropping Mini-B., enterprising we man.

And that was/is our thrilling Friday, report we man.
