...because the Costco-sized bag of popcorn we just bought is MIA. Where it might be is anyone's guess. My guess is the roof. It's the least logical place for it to be, so it's got to be there. I will not be climbing onto the roof to find out because I just had my hair done and I'm under stylist's orders not to sweat for the next 24 hours. Also, there are sopping wet hand towels on the floor doing nothing, and his violin is sitting very precariously on one of the bar stools, just waiting for the big dog to run into it so it can fall and splinter. Is it bad that I kinda hope it happens? Instruments are expensive, and I'm SURE BM would just LOVE to pay for that, since there's no way anyone would make SS11 work the entire summer doing hard labor to pay for it. ("Hard Labor" for SS11 is walking up the stairs, by the way, so forcing him to garden or mow the lawn or something would be considered abusive for him.)

Wait...what's that...? SS13 just came in and said SS11 has a HUGE mess to clean up outside in the back yard. What could it be? I wonder if perhaps it was the popcorn that I facetiously said was on the roof...and may have, in fact, actually been there, and now the wind might have blown it off the roof and all over the place. Let me check..

Guess what. I was right! There is an entire bag of popcorn all over the back lawn now, and he is attempting to get it up with a shop vac. I'm so happy SS11's biggest talent is screwing up. That kid could mess up a wet dream, I swear, he has GOT to be one of the biggest screw-ups of all time. So much for looking forward to enjoying some delicious cheese/caramel popcorn later on. Can't they go home now? I can only surmise that DH hasn't discovered this yet since he goes from 0-60 in two seconds if he feels his money has been wasted somehow, and I don't hear any yelling yet about the entire bag of popcorn being spilled. This is positively something that would set him off, so now I just wait...
