Last night I sat in the trailer and watched TV all night. It was strangely exhausting.
It must have been that time I got up to make macaroni and cheese that wore me out.
Today’s Exploit:
When Dave and Charles and Chris are all in the trailer they’re always telling stories. They tell hunting stories, embarrassing stories, fishing stories, work stories. And they talk about chickens a lot.
Every so often they notice me. The conversations go something like this:
Charles: You haven’t said much, what are you doing over there?
Me: Making a sandwich.
Charles: Just being quiet, huh?
Me: Yep, that’s my job.
Chris: How much does it pay?
Me: Not much, but it’s steady.
Chris and Charles: Hahahaha.
Now every time one of them comes in they ask me what I’m doing, but before I have a chance to reply they say, “Just being quiet?” So I just smile and go on with what I’m doing.
Today Charles was standing in the kitchen, in my usual place.
Me: You don’t look very awake today.
Charles: (nods) I’m just being quiet.
Me: Oh, taking over my job?
