What Could Have Been...

This post could have been and would have been all about the drama surrounding a shirt with a collar worn by one very mad 14 year old. Who knew a shirt with a collar could be so dramatic. A collared shirt caused a melt down, a melt down that I was hoping was a thing of the past. But it's not.

This post could have been and would have been all about Taylor's boyfriend, Brett. How he called her up and told he was walking to work on his fitness which caused her to jump on the treadmill and walk, or maybe about the time he called her and said, "I'm going to join the Bible Club at school and so are you!" But its not.

This post is all about one crazy funeral home secretary who was turned loose with the Quill Supply Catalog. Someone should have been watching her. She spent tons of money. She bought, cd labels, printer ink, correction tape, and...

5,000 paper clips and one bottle of white out. Don't need much whiteout cause the crazy funeral home secretary never makes mistakes.

You might be wondering what one does with so many paper clips and why did one order so many paper clips. I could say that I was tired of hunting down paper clips, maybe Jere needed a paper clip to hold back all that hair on top of his head, or maybe Sandy needed a new necklace. But I wouldn't say that.

Catalogue said 100 paper clips per box. I ordered 5 packs. Which is now obvious to me that 5 packs has 10 boxes, which I didn't notice when I ordered them.

Need a paper clip anyone? I might have an extra.

I hate to break it to you, but you are coming down with a case of kernodlitis. Just put them in the attic with everything else.

You're not the only one - years ago when everyone still used typewriters, I bought a dozen bottles of SCAT, which is the platen (roller) cleaner. I think we used one bottle and after about 15 years the other 11 bottles just mysteriously disappeared!

I bet you weren't thinking due to hostage negotiations over a watermelon. :)
