Things have been really tight recently, fiscally speaking. Choosing between mortgage and food for the month kind-of-tight. But recently I’ve come into some work and my mood has lifted. Below is a snippent of a conversation between me (ME) and the wife (TW):
ME: Ya know, I’m feeling not so bad…
TW: I’ve noticed you’ve been doing better. Is that hope?
ME: No…it’s more like…the cessation of despair.
TW: Hmnnh…like a weight has been lifted.
ME: Yeah, but you know I’ve been watching Larry Wilmore a lot…
TW: and…
ME: So just because a slave can drop the 50lb. sack of flour he’s forced to carry, doesn’t mean he’s not a slave anymore. He’s still a slave – just not with a 50 lb. sack of flour on his back.
So things are still tight – but we should be able to make the mortgage and have food during the month soon.
