Are you on your knees, readers, because the Scrabble game is not looking good. Every time I try to pull away, Brilliant but Devious Doc catches up. And I'm about out of moves. If only I had an umbrella today, my life would have been so different...
(It's nearing the close of the work day and raining outside, BbdDoc is looking for ways to stay dry...)
BbdDoc: Did you bring an umbrella today?
Moi: I've got a raincoat.
BbdDoc: How much do you want for it?
Moi: Hm... Max.
BbdDoc: Max what?
Moi: Max, your [first and only] offspring (who's just six weeks old).
BbdDoc: Oh. Max. Don't tempt me. He's been keeping me from sleep.
Moi: Or a turn on Scrabulous.
But alas, I had to keep the raincoat for myself. (Would've been too tight on him anyway.) Now I'm losing in Scrabble and time is running out. This ought to be a lesson for kids out there: always keep a spare umbrella. You never know when you'd need the leverage.
Keep the prayers going, folks.
