I made a daring rescue of Hobbes (Americana) and Siberian Hobbes at Contes in western Falls Church. We zipped down Rt. 7 (which I thought was 29 for some reason) and realizing my error and upcoming kid sitting and that I was already running a little late, took 50 the rest of the way.
At this point Hobbes started punching me through my back pack, but Siber Hobbes thought it was great and she called Hobbes the P word and they were going at it in my back pack.
It turned out that Gus got sick and was 🤮 so neither of them wanted to visit him anymore, BUT they were really curious as to what the Garden was that popped up in my neighborhood and made me stop to check it out. They were also annoyed that we didn’t get to visit all the young lawyers learning how to be trial attorneys at Kirkland & Ellis last week, so I thought it was only fair. They said it was very jungle-like and laughed at the “bouncer” (I told them to cut it the heck out before they got us in trouble!) who was taking up half of the shop. They made fun of me for not being very cool (apparently they’ve been keeping with some questionable company lately!) and asking twice about the “gifts” . . . I told them my brain was a little fried from Rt. 50 and I got it, I just didn’t want to say the wrong thing. Then they really wanted the free gift that they said they “needed” after Rt. 50. They said they were tired of all the whiskey and beer 🍺 they’d been forced to drink lately and wanted to be more “mellow” or something. I didn’t give in to their adventurousness this time, but they asked if I’d at least take a picture of them pretending to have enjoyed the “gift”. Such a silly couple of tigers!
They also really liked the blue Mercedes. They said, “Isn’t that the one you built a model of as a kid? The SL?” I said it was and we all laughed at how great the bumper sticker was and didn’t Camelot have 🐅? Then we cried a little.
