Re: The liar's bench

Post by Truckinbutch »

Today started out as a leisurely Saturday for me . Would that it could have finished that way :( SOH was doing her usual Saturday house cleaning . Her blue heeler pup was monkeying around under her feet and being the usual nuisance that a 4 month old pup is . My mature Aussie shepherd was pouting on her cushion beside my chair at the computer . She doesn't like mops , brooms , and vacuum cleaners any more than I do . Neither does she hold this upstart pup that invaded her space in high regard ...............
>SOH discovered that a mouse had invaded the cabinet under her double kitchen sink and did the usual mouse thing ; crapped all over the area . Direct affront to SOH who tries to keep a spotless house and is very proud of her Heritage solid wood cherry cabinets .
>So , the dog and I are in our corner listening to the background noise of her cursing mice in general and the one that crapped in her cabinet in particular as she empties the contents out to clean . Did I mention that SOH is 'vertically challenged' ? About as broad as she is tall , too .
>Well , she is on her belly , nearly waist deep into that cabinet cleaning and cursing . The pup decides she isn't getting enough attention . Goes to her toy pile and picks up a toy and softfoots it back beside SOH and bites down hard on the squeaker !
>And ALL HELL breaks loose :wtf:
>SOh let out a squall like a mashed cat . Started trying to unass that cramped area by whatever means . Brought the cabinet doors and divider with her . Skeert the pup so bad she pissed on the floor and SOH rolled out into that and unleashed another torrent of barn talk . At the same time my dog thought that the pup had hurt 'Mommy' and piled on the pup and they commence to fightin on top of SOH rollin on the floor in puppy piss tryin to get up .
>Enter the hero . Got bit a couple of times separating the dogs and pitching them out the door . Got SOH on her feet and settled down . She went off to get clean clothes and a shower . And I commenced repairing the
cabinets . So much for my leisure time :(
>Life is stranger than fiction . Ya just can't make this kind of shit up :crazy:

She's got her drink in her hand as I post . Pup's too young . My dog's a beer drinker . Never once attempted to sample likker when she was in the still house with me all evening with open jars lined up that she could have gotten in to .

Everything at my house seems to like likker and backset. I have to keep stuff up while running the dog and cat both want a snort.

Just send those gals over to visit for a few days . They will be fed well and offered a drop if they are so inclined . They will return shaking their heads to tell you that I understate many cases . Life seldom is dull here .

A life well lived, laughter echoes from our house, imagine yours the same. Me and Mrs SoMo are running some good stuff out the pipe, try that whole grain yeast it's different in a good way.

Pretty loose criteria here , Brutal . Doesn't have to be a lie to fit here .Just a community gathering on the general store porch . What ever is on your mind is a fair topic as long as it doesn't violate forum rules . And remember , you can't let a good story go for lack of tellin .

Truckinbutch, that is an awesome story. Fact is always better than fiction. I am sitting here laughing out loud and my wife and son think I am crazy , of course until I read it to them.

The slip and bleed went well, structure built, now for plastic. Jr has been riding everything he can think of down it. It looks like Nitro Circus around here. Sleds, knee boards, bicycles, Snow skis and kayaks have all made the trip, now for plastic, soap and water.
There is no such thing as a stupid question....... Unless you didn't research it first.

Don't forget bandaids , suture kit , splints , and backboards/stretchers . I can see a potential 'Maalox moment' at the local ER in the making .

You are going to share the story with them as a way of ecplaining yourself , aren't you ?

Thanks for all the replies . I found it much easier to find the humor in the situation than to beat hell out of two relatively innocent dogs and bitch here about the labor of repairing fine cabinetry .

Still chuckling :lol: :lol: And can say it since SOH is safely tucked in bed (with the two dogs ) . That ole fat girl can still move pretty damned fast when she gets motivated a little bit . Havin a ringside seat was priceless . A video of it would probably have sold for enough to insure our retirement .

I had to share this one with my wife. She reads it and says "that sounds like something that would happen to me". The she pauses and says "wait a minute, you aren't telling stories of me on there are you?". "No hun, but now that I have your permission...".

The dog is on the bed with her. On my side. Couch camp tonight.

Truckingbutch, that's hilarious. I gotta learn not to read this thread while eating lunch. Eventually IT's gonna make me buy my own keyboards.
