my other wife

greetings from ba's place (my grandmonther). dropped of dr. w at 7am this morning at the airport. she's in vegas for a bachelorette party. seeing the studs in 'thunder from down under' in their list. i also helped dr. w put together a kick scavenger hunt.

this afternoon i had a contractor come over to provide an estimate for some work that we're having done in the basement. the company absolutely refused to come unless both homeowners were present. first of all, what a gigantic pain in the ass. what business is of theirs whether dr. w, me, or both of us are there? i mentioned that i was married when i first called, not realizing that it would be used against me later in the call. well, i had already mentioned that my wife was going to be out of town, and they refused to book me an appointment.

well, i really want to have the work done before the enemy of my enemy crew arrives next week, and i was faced with a quandry.

so, i lied and called them back, and told them that my wife had postponed her trip.

now i needed a wife.

so i called chief chick. i don't think she was thrilled with the idea, but the novelty intrigued her.

the catch was that earlier in the week, i had invited my neighbors over to hang out. so now i needed to get all of them in on the story.

just to be safe, i took down and hid all of the pictures of dr. w and me.

so chief chick sat with me and listened to the contractor explain the work and give us an estimate.

i resisted the temptation to sit with my hand on her leg. by the way, the chief was in the family room playing wii with my next door neighbor.

afterwards, the chief wanted to know when he gets his night with dr. wintermute.
