Game Time

Don is right on schedule. Fifteen minutes into 49ers game, he appears at the bottom of the stairs to my office. I changed his TV channel to watch the game as he requested. 

Kristy: What do you need? 

Don: Do you know where my slippers are?  

Kristy: You ruined them. I told you I would get new ones when I go to Fred Meyer next time. 

Don: I think they are in the bathroom.  

Kristy: That’s your shoes, not slippers. Go back and watch the game. 

Don: Are you watching the Hawks? 

Kristy: No, I’m watching the 49ers. 

Don: I’m waiting for the Hawks. 

Kristy: Well, then, you will be waiting a long time. This is Thursday and 49ers game is only game tonight. 

Don: Say whaaat? 

Kristy: Hawks most likely play on Sunday. Today is Thursday. 

Don: Where’s the bathroom? 

Kristy: Turn around, walk 6 feet, turn right and you will see the door to the bathroom.

Note to Self: For the love of God, leave me alone so I can watch a game!
