Idiots

Why is it that some times when you venture out in public,
you run afoul of some idiot trying to protect or police whatever small empire that they think
necessary to police?

Case in point.

the family all went out grocery shopping today,
and the boys went to another section of the store, to
look at some toys,
and thay then came back to us.
about two seconds after they came back to us ,
idiot #1 came up and said that he was an employee
of the store and that one of the weasels had jumped and waved his hands in some ones face.

I said ok, and that i would talk to him.I went over to where the rest of the family was, and the idiot followed me, and continued to identify himself as store security.
I asked him for proof of this , and he got the on duty manager to come, and verufy
his identity.
She did, so i told him that i understood his concerns and explained that I wanted proof that he was employed by the stire, because anybody could just say this.
the whole time, he was repeating himself, and getting louder and louder, and cleverwife had even offered to take the one weasel out of the store,

Idiotboy seemed to take offese to the fact that I questioned him on being a store employee, and was getting confrontational, so i said to him that he and I were finished, he told me that he wouldn't be talked to that way in his pl;ace of employment, and asked me to leave.

I told him that i wanted to speak to the manager, and he said go ahead, but wouldn't leave, so I told him that I would when he left, he still would not go, finally he left.
the manager informed me that he was actually an employee of another company that works for the storein theft reduction, and that becuse we were not stealing, he vcould not aske me to leave anyway, and she did not want us to leave.

she also had told Cleverwife that she did not like the way the guy handled things and the way he acted and that she wanted us to continue shopping there.


Later, as we were leaving, the guy was glaring at me and acting like there was aproblem

the only problem i see was his.

am I wrong in thiking he was way out of line?

Days Off

The Weasels have a day off from school today,
So I decided to take a day off as well.

Why is it that I can barely get them out of bed on time for school,
but they all managed to get out of bed in order to play Game cube right away?

Kids

CleverWife is still in bed (lucky her)

the Baby squirrels were retrieved by a natural resources guy
and they were good when they left us, after a night of cleverwife getting up all the time to
check on them.

on the plus side there is only just over a month until we move into the new house

Yea

Ireally do not have a lot to say

maybe I'll post more later

Babies

It has been a long time (again!) since my last post.

All 5 of the bunnies are doing well, and Iwent on a trip (business, not pleasure).

We have a temporary addition to the menagerie of our house,

Pocko and clinger, two baby grey squirrels that the weasels and their friends rescued after the mama was found dead.

No one knows what happened to the mama


The weasels friends had them in a carrier but they came over yesterday and told us that one of them was not doing well.

they brought it over, and Clevewife warmed it up and then did research on the internet, and found a woman who rescues them.

We( and by we I mean mostly her) fed them ensure last night, and kept them warm and this morning they are much more lively and active.


We are such suckers for small animals

I'll keep you posted there is more over at my son's blog
