Neighborly Graces

So yesterday I'm outside with the kids getting the lawnmower out of the shed and generally keeping to myself. The neighbor (Butch) sticks her head out her bedroom window and says: "Kody wants to come out and play. You don't mind watching him for a couple hours while I do some housework right?" I responded: "Well I WAS going to mow the lawn." When that didn't dissuade her I resorted to other means and stated: "Hold on I've got to run in and go to the bathroom." My thinking was that she would leave me alone if I took long enough. However when I got outside, she had Kody waiting for me.

The killer is the statement she made next. "Yeah, I had a bug the other day too. It's going around, you know." I was in bewilderment and probably looked that way. I mean I went to the bathroom. When did going to the bathroom become a sickness, disease or virus. Anyway, two hours and a skinned knee later she finally came to collect her grandson.

Exactly when do we move again????

That is insane. You should be my neighbor, then I could abuse your goodwill at my convenience.
