Was it a conspiracy?

We got home from the banquet last night at 9:00. I was tired!!!

I had no sooner got in the door and my son asked me if I could help him with his college essay.

I’m telling you, I did not want to. Man I did not want to.

But, I’m supposed to the the mature adult…

So, I did…

I’m not proud to say this but I grumbled and let him know that I was not happy about doing so. I ended helping him for an hour.

Just as I was finishing up, who should show up…

All the way from Tennessee…

my wife! I guess she must have heard that the toxic cloud had lifted.

Anyway, the timing was just too perfect. I started wondering if this whole thing was a conspiracy. The unannounced banquet moved the essay (which we HAD to work on!) back several hours which kept me up until my wife got home.

Well, now I HAVE to stay up and talk to her. I haven’t seen her in four days.

What am I going to say…”Sorry, honey. Not tonight. I’m tired. Let’s talk tomorrow.”???

I have no idea what time I finally got to sleep.

All I know is that I was not the happiest camper this morning. I even had to apologize for biting my youngest daughter’s head off over some silly thing this morning.
