Home Sweet Home (5)
another short chapter to add to the story line of the Red Planet
(Now in real time)
Dad my heat lamp burned out again! shouted my son, Lewis. When did it go out, was it last night? I responded, yeah but i didn't want to bother you so I just used my electric blanket instead. Than why are you brown today Lewis? This got no response so I droped the subject but responded with you know that it doesn't bother me if it concerns your health to wake me up right? Yeah but I wanted you to just have a nice sleep after what you went through with work and all yesterday, he replied. Oh I wasn't that grouchy was I, it was more of a question than a statement. Whel...I mean... I just...yeah. Ok whel it dosen't actualy suprise me that that is the case. I got a smile and a giggle from that.
Lewis has been quiet and afraid from the begining and hasent told me why yet so I don't push him for information but am secretly itching to know so I can make it all beter. Ok get your coat on little mister it is still winter time and I dont want you freezing on the way to walmart to get you a new bulb. He quickly grabed his coat and zipped up, turning on the heating coils and harboring a dopey-happey smile on his green face from feeling so warm after a resstless cold night. Once we got to the store we headed for the "Tropical" isle and I let him pick out his new bulb. What about this one, no, or this one, no, this one has a cool looking box, no, and with a smirk on my face I added, what about the one with the sexy iguana woman on the box, a heated blush was begining to show on the reptiles face, no, I snickered and luged the huge box back onto the shelf and let him pick out his own bulb.
When we got home that hot dragon was there and waiting for us with a delicious looking hot lunch ready and served. How was the shoping spree otterboy and scailybutt, I responded with, oh just shut up and help us put in this new bulb, it weighs like sixty pounds, I was responded to with, nine, ich shpreca nickt Englisch, with a laugh of course. I shot back, sehcszehn, SEHCSZEHN!!! and he finaly got off his taught perfict ass to help us.
