I Screwed Up Again

I Screwed Up Again

Mrs. C got home from work early tonight.  She came in the door and then hollered up the stairs.

“JOSEPH!”

Full name…not good.

Immediately my mind started whirling, what did I do?

Inside the balloon over my head

Hmm…I did have a cigar and a glass of wine before dinner, but I smoked outside, sprayed Febreze around the deck and put the wine bottle away.  I know I closed and locked the patio door.  I was in the basement, but am positive I turned off the gas heater and shut out all the lights.  I did a load of laundry and have not yet put it in the dryer…no, that can’t be it.  I unloaded the dishwasher, loaded it with my dinner dish, and cleaned the sink.  I have no idea.

OK, here goes.

“WHAT?”

“WHY DID YOU PUT AWAY MY DISH AND FORK AND THROW AWAY THE ALUMINUM FOIL!!?”

Mrs. Cranky had a slice of pizza before work and was going to have the last slice of yesterday’s pie when she came home from work.

“BECAUSE IT WAS DIRTY AND USED!”

“WELL I WAS NOT THROUGH WITH THEM!!”

“SORRY, USE A NEW DISH AND A NEW PIECE OF FOIL; I’LL PAY FOR IT OUT OF MY OWN MONEY!”

You’ll never guess what she called me.
