 Pest Blue Wednesday
Posted by: Pest Posted on: 10.08.03

Man, oh man, is it ever depressing around here! The weather stinks, Addie's been in the dumps, and the fall television shows are duds. I feel particularly betrayed by the last event, as it was my first experience with fall premieres and I had been looking forward to it with heightened expectations since sweeps week last spring. I had the couch primed for a solid month of edge-of-my-seat excitement. What I got was edge-of-my-nerves boredom. I'm not going to name names, but the guilty shows know who they are... and why oh why didn't anyone tell me that 99.9999999% of all new shows are a complete waste of time?

Calgon, take me away!

Well, it turns out that I'm getting a nice little lump of cash from the insurance company after last month's little incident. So, I'm taking the opportunity to do a little renovation at the shop, and thought I'd take Addie out of the city during the downtime for a little R&R, so she can get some fresh air and get out of her funk. Against my better judgement, I'm also inviting you, Pest.

I have a cabin out in a secluded patch of woods where I go to unwind every once in a while. It's not exactly the most impressive residence, but it's comfortable and quiet. So, what do you say, Addie? You up for it?



 Addie Well...

Thanks for the offer Sylvie, but I don't want to impose on you anymore than I already do.

Besides, I can't think of any possible way to get Pest out there without a major fuss...



 Sylvie Re: Well...

You just leave the logistics of Pest removal to me, Addie. And don't think of backing out with a lame excuse like that. I'm going to pretend I didn't hear that and get everything set up for later this month.

Don't make me defer to a higher power and get your mother's opinion on this...



 Addie Okay, Okay!
Posted by: Addie Posted on: 10.08.03

I surrender! Whatever, you do, don't bring my mother into this... if she finds out how I'm feeling, she'll be on the next plane out to fuss over me until I'm completely batty.



 Pest Wait!

A cabin? In the middle of nowhere? Is there a TV?! I know I made some disparaging remarks about it earlier, but I'm not ready to go cold turkey just yet...



 Pest Hello?
Posted by: Pest Posted on: 10.08.03

Anyone out there? I really need to know if there's a TV or not.



 Pest Huh
Posted by: Pest Posted on: 10.08.03

I believe I'm being ignored! The nerve!

Well, I'll just sit here silently and see how you guys like it.



 Pest Fine

Alright, I guess you're made of stronger stuff.

Seriously, let me know about that TV thing, Sylvie...
