THOUGHTS AND MUSINGS HONORING SURFACEY CONVERSATIONS, FAMILY, AND THE EXCRUCIATING MINUTIAE OF EVERYDAY LIFE

Even Trampier Than Tammy

Today, after Nick and I bought a new trampoline (old trampoline was crushed by a falling tree in a wind storm), Tammy stopped by the house. She saw us setting it up and said, "Wow, I guess I'm not the biggest tramp around here any more. You should name your trampoline Tammy - then you'll have two tramps named Tammy in your life."

I laughed pretty hard at this one, unlike most of her attempts at humor.

My laughter encouraged her to attempt another joke. She said, "For my next act, I'll be telling a story of my most recent law-breaking activity that will let the cat's pajamas out of the bag."

She waited for me to laugh. I did not.

MORAL OF THE STORY: Quit while you're ahead.

Sam, I must say that I find your obsession with this woman slightly disconcerting.

Yes, but once you let the cats pagamas out of the bag, you will be skating on hot ice. Tammy, a Poem
