You may recall Hick's new love, the sign a buddy made for his SUS2.5 (Storage Unit Store 2.5). Hick still caresses it every evening. He bought colored pencils for me to use. I have been in no hurry. Hick never gave me a time limit. I am loathe to start this project without Hick looking over my shoulder. I would hate to bespoil his darling.
Anyhoo... with Hick finally home at the same time, when I wasn't busy cooking his supper, or scratching my lottery tickets, I said, "Maybe tomorrow I can color your sign, if you're here to show me exactly what you want."
Hick was holding his precious at the time. He ran his hand over the surface. "Yeah. My buddy won't take the money until he gets it done, with the polyurethane coating."
Welp! Nobody told me some innocent guy's money was held up until I did my coloring! Making Hick wait is one thing. But a businessman should not have his payment delayed.
Hick has tried the colored pencils, to see if that's the result that he wants. He thinks so.
Hick says he wants it colored lightly, not with a lot of pressure. Probably to make the gun stock, which he plans to be orange, look like wood grain. I'm not sure why Hick tried purple. He has said he just wants the wooden parts of the rifle, and the handle of the knife colored. To make the sign stand out more. He had originally said he wanted red for the knife handle.
Anyhoo... knowing Hick's communication style, and how infatuated he is with his new love, I'm sure you can understand why I won't start this little project unless he's RIGHT HERE to boss me around. The whole process will probably take less than 15 minutes. It's just the finality of it that makes me feel the pressure!
