Elrod & Lynna Never The Twain Shall Meet
I’m still sick. I’m taking red pills when the sun is up and blue pills when it’s dark outside. I catch myself staring into the distance. It would be a lonely feeling except there is a little pink fuzzy creature that sits beside me. He looks just like a snow shoe rabbit except he has pointy bat like ears and… well… the whole pink fuzzy part. He doesn’t laugh or talk but he does slap his big flat pink foot on the ground when I say something funny. The dogs pretend not to see him. I think they are jealous of how close we have become. Andy’s mom wouldn’t let me name him Eugene Elrod (tell your mom thanks Andy) so I named my little pink friend Elrod.
Lynna said on Thursday that the weekend would be here soon and that I could just lay in bed all weekend and she would take care of me. Then about ten hours later at about 2am Friday she grabbed me by the shoulder and started shaking me and said “Shut your mouth or I will shut it for you.” I guess I was snoring or something. I mentioned later that she had maybe been a but over zealous in her request and that she could have probably found another option and she said that she agreed. But that she felt, the other option which was holding a pillow over my face, much to drastic. I agreed. I knew she was serious, I think I have mentioned before that she sometimes holds her hand over my nose and mouth when I snore. Did I mention that Elrod is afraid of Lynna and hides when she is around? I told him it was just her lack of sleep talking. But he thinks that it is better to be safe than sorry.

I sent Lynna an E-Valentine on Friday. She wanted to know if I understood that Valentine’s day was the 14th. Well…. Duh like I could ever forget when valentine's day falls. I just like to be early sometimes just in case I forget later on. Plus I have issues with holding off giving something to someone after I buy it. That is why I have always tried to buy most gifts on the day of or the night prior to the occasion. I have no self control where gifts are concerned.
So I sent her this email card and after I filled out our names and email addressed and added my message I pushed send and the page reloaded with the same card and message. Included in the reload was a red sentence that said “Your Valentine has been sent." but then it went on to state that “To send the same Valentine to a another person, simply fill in remaining fields.”
That’s just wrong. How messed up is this world, when a company gives you that kind of option? Even encourages it? Although if you think about it, it does make sense that if you send the same Valentine card to all your “significant others” you won’t have to remember who got which card. And if you’re the type to have more than one “significant other” I guess you wouldn’t have any moral issue with sending them all the same card. Just seemed really weird to me….
It’s dark outside so Elrod and I need to go get some blue pills.
