Health and Welfare

It's kinda nice to have you on my side of town for a change. You should have brought Anubis with you. B A N T E R.......12 points

Yeah, but Jim is home and was going to work with him today. I want him trained better than Argos. T A S K ........28 points.

Argos is a bit...um...frisky. J O K E ......20 points.

How have you been feeling, Ma. Any better lately?

My gut is still killing me and I'm waiting for all the Doctor's reports to come back. At least I'm losing weight.

Not exactly the best way to do it but, I guess it's a nice side benefit in this shit storm you're in. C A R E..........8 points And as far as the layoff, well, I told you it could be a really good thing.

Getting laid off five years short of retirement? No. I can't see that as a good thing. I R O N Y ......10 points

I make enough money to supplement your retirement, and if I ever get pregnant, you could baby sit twice a week or something. You should enjoy as much of the time you have left as you can. H E L P .......20 points

I'm just going to wait till next year when the axe falls, and figure it out then. It's all too much right now. N U M B ........16 points

Have you told Wendy about all this?

Yes.

And?

Well, I told you John said he was praying for me. Wendy hasn't told him the truth about my health problems.

What do you mean by the truth? You have yucky parasites from your Cancun trip, and you might have cancer. What part of that needs to be kept a secret? S H O C K ..........12 points.

The parasite issue obviously.

What? Why?

What do you think, Sarah? If he knew I had parasites he'd never even allow me in their house or near the kids. A N G E R .......8 points.

But that's not something that you're going to pass on. It's not a virus. They'll just give you an RX for Metronidazole. It's just gross. Ha! Sorry, mom. It's probably not funny to you.

I think he'd feel better if he thought I had cancer.

Yeah, then he'd inherit some more money. Well don't worry, I've got your back. I'll never let you go homeless. Besides, it's worth it to me to supplement your monthly retirement income. I sure as hell don't want you to live with us! L O V E .........8 points.

Well, that goes double for me. T H A N K S .........18 points.
