So, David calls his mommy. He’s having a bummer of a day. He’s locked his key in the car. His SPARE key. Can’t find the other one, of course! His mommy tells him to call AAA - that’s what we have it for. But you see, he needs to get to DK’s before they close because he hasn’t had any dinner (and heaven forbid he actually FIX himself something!). But he ALSO needs to get back to the BP in Edwardsville to pick up his laptop. What’s his laptop doing at BP? Funny you should ask. Well, he needed gas and of course he hadn’t brought any money with him, let alone his wallet. So he had to leave the laptop as a ransom for the gas pumped into his car. Sigh. What are we going to DO with my laddie???
P.S. Wally, if you're looking for your student I.D. and can't figure out what happened to it, it's in MY wallet!!!

Wouldn't it be kinder to David if you didn't blog about his blunders? Shouldn't you be overlooking and covering up his faults (see Small Catechism)?
Obviously you do not know our beloved David or you would know that his father IS putting the best construction on everything!
Besides, we all know that David has a great sense of humor and is very smart--except when it comes to the basics of life. But that is what makes him so lovable.
and...he's a dingy!
Ah, artists. What can you say?
I adore David for many many reasons, but one of them is this:
He makes me look like I'm organized and have common sense (but only by comparison).
"I thank Thee, Lord, that I am not like Pr. Lehmann, who thanks Thee, Lord, that he is not like David..."
grin
I beg your pardon. You're right, I don't know any of the people involved. I was just going by my own experience of being embarrassed when people talk about my many blunders. Like this one.
Sir Cuthbert,
Ah, it's all in good fun. Truth to tell, the whole thing didn't exasperate us as much as it cracked us up. He's SUCH an artist! David keeps us all laughing - and that keeps us sane. He marches to the beat of a different drummer!
