Friday was one of our coldest days so far. Temps in the 30s, with a little wind. At least The Pony now drives a Metris on his route, rather than an LLV (Long Life Vehicle). The Metris has heat! Even so, The Pony is in and out, walking the streets. I suppose he felt a draft...
I got a text mid-morning, telling me that The Pony thought he might be out until 7:00. So I wouldn't worry. The day after Thanksgiving is quite busy at the post office. A little after 6:00, The Pony sent another text that he was home. With a little too much information afterwards.
"I stabbed myself in the butt trying to tuck my shirt back in earlier. Literally scratched enough to bleed a bit! I was shocked when I took a bathroom break and there was blood and the clear claw marks in the mirror!"
Thankfully, no pictures were included! I did not ask why The Pony was looking at his butt in the mirror.
In other news, I asked The Pony if his neighbors had a trash can, since he stole his back from under their porch a couple weeks ago.
"Yes. They have a NEW trash can. It has a SMOOTH sticker on the side, not the wrinkly one like mine from sitting out in the weather. I used a purple-colored marker to write my address on mine for now."
Well. I guess that incident will have no lasting repercussions.
Perhaps The Pony needs his hooves trimmed, having to wash blood out of clothes is annoying. I'm glad he has a vehicle with heat.
ReplyDeleteYes, that would prevent this problem in the future. The Pony appreciates the air conditioning more than the heat!
