Surly Brett
September 6th 2011 21:00
My holidays are almost over with no conjugal visit. My husband must think I’ve forgotten all about him and his best friend.
When I asked Brett why he hadn’t called to let me know when he was going to visit Butterscotch and Gingersnap, he said testily, “It’s because I haven’t seen them. They’re no longer my concern.”
“What are you talking about?” I asked.
“I’m going to get them put down,” said Brett, snapping out of his surly mood and cracking another one of his black jokes to wind me up.
“How are they?” I asked, refusing to rise to the bait.
“I haven’t seen them.”
“Why not?”
“Because it hurts too much. It’s heartbreaking to see them so I’d rather not. But if anything changes I will let you know.”
