Surprises of the Charlie Kind...

The Duchess

The Duchess went nuts and I looked out past this computer to the street to see who had arrived. I was smiling as well. It was Charlie and he looked like he had his hands full. I was standing at the screen door corralling Maggie when Charlie beckoned for me to give him a hand.

"Your daddy had continuing education for pharmacists tonight," Charlie told me as we walked across my yard. "I am your Papa tonight."

I was smiling broadly at all the treats Charlie had brought me. He really does spoil me to death on his visits.

"I've got you two Taco Bell burrito supremes no beans with lots of hot sauce," Charlie told me. "Here are also two drinks. You get a second drink because Horsefly can't drink soda. It makes him blow chunks every time and always in the car."

I shouldn't have chuckled at the "blow chunks" remark but I did. Charlie also reached into his pocket and handed me two of my favorite candy bars. King size Snickers.

"Now, let's take your medications," Charlie told me as he handed me my handful of crazy meds.

"Now Maggie-loo I haven't forgotten about you," Charlie told the Duchess after he had administered my crazy meds.

Charlie got on the couch with the Magster and gave her lavishing tons of affection and attention. Maggie was still pining for Charlie while she looked out the window as Charlie departed. 

A Five Dollar Fill-Up...

"What did you get tonight?" I asked my father while he was fooling around with my crazy meds on the couch.

He was trying to decide what day medications to give me. I watched as a Klonopin went rolling across my hardwood floor as my father cursed. I was sitting in my plush recliner just beside him as Maggie sat at our feet.  He soon handed my medications to me and I gulped them down lickety split.

"I got the $5 fill up which was the chicken sandwich variant," my father replied.

My father was acting rather strange and aloof tonight (eerily quiet) and I couldn't figure out his emotions or moods. I internalize this and get to thinking I committed some kind of terrible social faux pas to form a rift between us.

"I got you double than what I was supposed to," Charlie then said laughing as he was cleaning in my kitchen. "You've got tacos out the ass now!"

We all burst out in laughter! It is double or nothing with our Charlie. I got two burrito supremes and two taco supremes.

No Box of Greasy Fried Chicken Tonight Folks! (Thank You, Jehoshaphat!)

Yes, we are taking a run for the border tonight. Charlie asked me this morning what I wanted to eat this evening and I told him to get me two burrito supremes from Taco Hell. Yee Haw! Charlie said that would be fine. My stomach is already grumbling with protest and hunger. I hope they arrive soon rather than later which is the norm. Watch it be around 9 PM when they arrive and I will be frazzled with worry and aggravation.
