Day 2 – Question of the Day XII

posted by Momo Fali on November 2, 2011

So, you know how you pick up your son from Cub Scouts and he’s crying because he’s so hungry (because God love his amazing Scout co-leader, but she’s a busy mom and she left the bag of snacks, in a bag, ON HER DRIVEWAY), but that’s okay because you were proactive and ordered a pizza while you were waiting for your son, but on the way to the pizza place he’s saying, “My stomach HURTS BAD, because I’m starving”, and then you get to the pizza place and pull out your credit card and they say, “Oh, we only take cash or checks”, and you have to drag your hungry kid back to the car and then to the bank, and when you restart your 14 year old car at the pizza place for the SECOND time it starts making a hissing sound, and doing this lurching thing, so you call your husband, but he’s busy with the repair guy who is looking at your chimney because it’s so water damaged that it’s getting ready to collapse onto your roof and when you finally get home, you find out the quote to fix it is $7000?

Yeah, me too.

    Oh my, that sounds rough. I am so sorry.
    “hugs”

    But how was the pizza?

  • dysfunctional mom


    DAMMIT, Miss Britt stole my question. I’ve been craving pizza all week so I sort of got lost after I read “pizza”.
    Because clearly, that’s what’s important in life. The pizza.

    I’m sure I could find something pithy (or pissy, depending on your mood) to say if it wasn’t for the $2700 I have to pay to rescue my car from the repair shop this afternoon. :>S

      Lou, you made me feel better! My car is only $1400!

  • Tara R.


    I think you’re gonna need more than a pizza to feel better after that.

    Oh. Snap.

    I knew about the chimney and the car from your Tweets but I didn’t know about the starving child. At least you were able to get the pizza before the car broken. Because a starving child stuck in a broken car is not a combination.

    Those Scouts need to fix chimneys and cars. Just sayin’. They would love it.

    Crapola – here, have this shot of tequila and the bottle too.
