The unfolding story.........


And the chest thumping begins.....
last posts.....
Alpha Male has made grave tactical error and has laid down the gloves....
I will admit that I did not wait for a casual update on this February day ..... nope, I phoned The Fox @ 8pm
RING RING
Hello...
So how's the sidewalk situation.....
Sidewalks are great....
And?.....
Alpha Male is in the garage, moving out......
but it's storming.....
exactly...........
Alpha Male returned home a little later than expected , about 5 minutes before the Yard Service. Yard Service pulls up promptly @ 7pm. 3 large young brutes jump out, unload brooms, shovels and snowblower. The Fox and the Cree Princess dress warmly , and sit on the steps and wait for the show.
So the curtains in the living room start moving and I know he's watching. Sure enough 2 minutes later he is out with his snow shovel, cleaning his walks, making conversation with the yard crew and the Cree Princess, and acting like I wasn't there.
To yard crew: So how much do you guys charge for something like this.......
30 bucks a pop, but way less if you sign a contract....
A contract?
Yup, it makes it a lot cheaper and easier... for a reg monthly fee we come without you booking, everytime it snows and once a week in the summer to mow.
You don't have to call....
Nope
And you just show up....
yep
oh.
To the Cree Princess: I'm going to Tim Hortons, would you like anything....
Yes I would like a blahblahblah
After 4 attempts at translation he is forced to get it from the FOX.
She would like a Sparklely Donut.
A Sparklely Donut, what the heck is that?
That's what they call it at Tim's.
A Sparklely Donut, Ok Cree Princess, one Sparklely Donut coming up.
The yard crew is gone when Alpha Male returns, sparklely donut in hand, a peace offering to the wrong Princess.
So, are you going to sign a contract with the doughboys?
Depends...
On what....
Our deal.
What deal?
The deal we made about you doing all my yard work, and you having half my garage?
So you're saying you want me out of the garage......
No, I'm saying we need to clarify the deal, I can't let my yard wait till you get over a hissy fit...
Hissy fit.... hissy fit..... this all started cause you had a hissy fit over a stupid pizza......
whatever........
Now I will admit she has a special ability to drive even the most sane person crazy when she says whatever. She got that expression down to crazy makin......
whatever.... whatever !! so your saying I have to worry about you puttin me out if you get mad..... you're acting like we're married!!!!!
perhaps you should go.
And so now he's moving his stuff out of the garage?
Yep
Even his convertable?
Yep
that needs it's roof replaced?
Yep
And it's storming...
Yep...
Did he really call the donuts with sprinkles, Sparklely Donuts when he ordered?
One can only hope.........
There are many stories in this little drama, and is dating on the horizon? I think the Alpha Male had that intent at first, but folks, this is now the second year in. Don't get your hopes up.
At this point he is just trying to save face in the neighborhood....more about that later perhaps.

So I take it Sparklely Donuts are not what they are actually called?
*imagines burly type man asking for Sparklely Donuts*

big , macho type, wraparound sunglasses goes to the counter at least a couple of times a week calling them Spark a leee
donuts.
swaggers in:
Yes I'll have an extra large, black, oh and can you throw in a sparklely donut.
My daughter has her own little chuckle and will never tell him the rest of the world calls them donuts with sprinkles.
My daughter also has a fondness for the word "whatever" which drives us all crazy.....must be the small amount of Canuck Blood in her eh?
