Single Note on a Double Sawback
Wow. It’s been a long time since I posted. First I didn’t have anything to write about, then there was the family vacation where I didn’t have blogging access, then the blogs in the Cranium Leakage network were down. Whew. I will try to be better about updating. School starts soon, and that’s always good for posting ideas.
Anyway, I’m housesitting again for my boss. Since this will be a longer stay than usual, Steve left me some emergency cash in case I needed to take a pet to the vet or something. This was on one of the $20 bills on the counter:
If you can’t read it, it says “I enjoy being with you and even though we didn’t do anything, I had fun. Thanks for dinner. :)”
I doubt my boss even noticed the message on his bill when he left it for me. It does, however, provide some fun possible connotations if he did:
1. Steve left it for his wife.
2. His wife left it for him.
3. Steve left it for me (I should hope we didn’t "do anything"—
that would be awkward!).
4. One of the pets “wrote” it for me (I do give them dinner, after all!)
None of these scenarios really fit, which leads me to wonder who did really write the note.
I’m on sort of a quest to find the writer of the note. If they want, they can PayPal me and I can send the bill back to them so they can have it. I certainly don’t want to deprive someone of a sentimental love note…
So if it's yours, speak up! Come claim it! (Yes, I probably will giggle behind your back because I think it's kinda funny, but I will be nice about it)

That looked similar to my friend's boyfriend's handwriting.

Now that is an interesting find. Even more interesting to think that the chain of hands the bill has gone through to wind up in front of you.
You never know, maybe someone else he knows wrote it for him.

House sitting for your boss... Doesn't get any more comedic than that.
