Write when you find gas
The Atlanta Journal-Constitution
Detective Sandy went off to find gas for our youngest son who was working.
She’s a good mother who will constantly remind him of this day until he does something nice for her. Although he does nice things for her anyway, my job is to remind him that he needs to have this nice thing for her done in the next week or so or I will make him ride the school bus instead of taking his car.
He would rather be hung by his feet and forced to listen to the View than to lose his ride.
Her decision to ride out to search the vast wilderness for gas was a brave one. Before she left we looked at old pictures of the kids and reminisced of our fun times together. I packed her back pack with C-rations, a few bottles of water, flares, a homing beacon and a DVD of Desperate Housewives-First Season. I’ll miss her.
I returned to the compound and checked the land mines, making sure they were ready for the night zombies who are certain to come looking to siphon gas while we sleep. We’re ready though. I fitted the dogs with eye patches and Styrofoam dorsal fins to scare the zombies.
This is really awful.
