What's Wrong With Pizza

This weekend has been an unusual one. When I arrived at my G-Maw-In-Law’s beach house, the first thing she said to me, “Can you please fix my laptop?” (Please see post on Monday June 9, 2008 – What Do I Look Like?) So, I connected to her internet service (she pay’s $60 a month for “high” speed wi-fi from BU&U, but she’s getting ripped off if you ask me, it’s worse than dial-up) and tried to download the updates to her computer. It couldn’t be done. It was so slow that it was counter-productive and I asked her, “Does this have to be done or recommended to be done?” She replied recommended and then I said, “Then it won’t be done. It’s too much work for too little gain.” She seemed fine with that, but I can hear her again asking for help in the future. The rest of the night and Saturday was fine until around six pm.
I was told that we would be having crabs for dinner (not crab dip or crab salad, fresh crab from the bay). I liked it okay, and Bab’s (G-Maw-In-Law) knew that I didn’t like to pick crabs, but I did for a couple. If you have ever eaten crabs before, you would know that you can pick and eat all day and not satisfy your hunger. When I got in the house, I asked my wife “What do I get for dinner?” Bab’s and my wife both looked at me like I had worms crawling out of my ears. Finally, after my wife and I discussed things for a little while, we agreed to go out for pizza. That was a mistake. Not because I wanted pizza, or the pizza was bad. In fact, the pizza was AWESOME (pineapple, pepperoni and sausage)!!! The mistake was that because we went out for pizza, everyone on the island knew about it, and that’s all we heard the next day. “You two went of for Pizza last night?” EVERYONE asked that one question. WHAT WAS THE BIG DEAL????? I was hungry and I wanted something that Bab’s didn’t have on hand. It was like I was committing a crime.
Anyway, the rest of the trip was good up until 11 pm. I had just finished watching a good Will Smith movie and the wife had fallen asleep. When she got up, she threw this hissy fit about me not ever going to be earlier. In all honesty, my wife is not a morning person or someone who wakes up and is particularly polite when she wakes up from a nap. Fortunately, this didn’t lead into a fight and she apologized quickly.

I plan on recording Episode 6 of Geezer Radio tomorrow night with a special guest host. Talk to you later.
