To my Puffin:
I need you to know this story.
Im at home taking this personal day. Im getting stuff done-you know like boiling whole chickens and making a few phone calls-No big deal.
I then spot a few men outside the front, me being curious, i go outside to see just what they are doing. Let me tell you what Im wearing-your boxer shorts (because they are oh so comfy) a white T, and well…. No Bra.
When I figure out that the men are just sweaty OPPD men I become uninterested and go to return to my boiling on HIGH chicken.
All to find my door locked-all the doors. I have no bra on and a boiling chicken on the stove. Classy.
The OPPD man sees me on the phone telling Dan that I dont know how to get into the house-So this nice burly sweaty man says he shall help me. He assesses my window screen and runs to his truck saying nothing. I stand there. He comes back with a tool and pops my screen off-jiggles the window around and BAM-Its open. But because God didnt make me very tall I have to have the ‘Man’ form a cradle out of his hands to shove me back through my window-Thank the lord I have undies on.
I then check the chicken-tell the man back through the window that all is well and offer him a Coke a Cola classic-he kindly declines. good cause there was only one left-and when I offered him the cold drink i was not really sure if there was any left.
I think all is done. I just leave the screen in the yard for a later moment.
an hour later.
ding-dong.
my doorbell rings. OPPD man wants to know if I need help putting the screen back on. I say sure. but once again he has to make a cradle out of his hands while we-as a team-put the screen back on. and I awkwardly walk back into my home again while he lingers in my yard.
What the Fuck Baby.
Just trying to take care of a little businass. and this is the obstacle I have to go through first.
Thank the power outage last week for burly, sweaty, kind OPPD men lingering in my yard.
Miss.
You.
A lot.
