Life: Better Keep That Receipt


Note: I wrote this back in 2006 on one of my other blogs and it still applies -- except now I don't bother praying and I have two dogs instead of one The grainy image to the left is Hugo and Pony playing.

Dear God/dess:

Can I get a refund for my life? In just the past few years I've been abused, been victim of arson, can't find a steady job, went through international air travel, continue to  suffer from major depression -- and now my saintly Mom is suffering from an infection given to her by a doctor with a dirty needle. This on top of her arthritis, deafness, scoliosis and something else ending in 's' that I'm forgetting at the moment.

On the bright  side, I now know what healthy pus looks like. Not that I realized there was such a thing as healthy pus. However, no one asks that for my job qualifications. I can't even blog regularly because I have to keep the phone line open for medical crap.

I've noticed that my dog Pony has gone through most of what I have, yet is happier than any lark. I seem to be better off praying to my dog than to You.
