Vacation Woes (fiction)
Martha: John did you remember to turn the water off and cancel the paper for the week?
John: Yes Dear, relax the house will still be there when we get home
Martha: Dont talk to me like that, remember when the Jone's got robbed because
they didnt cancel the paper?
John: Umm Martha they left the garage door open, it had nothing to do with the paper
Martha: Well I think it was, besides, better safe than sorry
John: Cant you just enjoy our trip instead of being a worry wart
Martha: ENJOY THE TRIP? Maybe if you werent so cheap we could of flown
instead of sitting on this damn train for 15 hours. And on top of it, the rest
of our family are staying at the Hilton, why on earth are we staying at the
Motel 6 when everyone else is staying in the same hotel? Im so tired of you
being such a tightwad, are you planning on taking it with you
John: I just dont see the point in paying $100 more a night to get a coffee maker in
the room. It's only a 20 min bus ride from the Hilton anyways.
Martha: BUS RIDE? For Christ sakes , I wish I married ken anderson when I had
the chance. I bet he flies and stays at nice hotels. What was I thinking when
I said " i do" nothing but 30 yrs of Dennys and afternoon matinees (sigh)
John: Like your a bed of roses. Did you know that I dated Angie Dickenson b4
she got famous. Now all I got is Edith Bunker with a mustache
Martha Go to hell John and dont talk to me the rest of trip
John: Geez, all these years and thats all it took to shut you up?
