The Ketchup Caper

My life would be so boring without Roger and his escapades!

This one started when we went to Gainesville, FL to buy a new car. Yup, we found a 2010 Buick, Enclave, mocha with a beige interior and only 11,000 miles. We will need two cars when Roger goes back to work so we decided to get it and drive it back to San Antonio. It has made for a different journey with me following the motorhome in the second car - Roger missing his "flight attendant" and me missing my bathroom!! It drives like a dream and I love it!

Back to the story........We had an appointment to test drive the car at 9:30am on Monday morning. When we arrived (after an hour and a half drive from Clermont) they informed us that they had discovered a scratch on the door and it was in the paint shop -it would be ready to see around 2pm!! After much discussion they finally said we could see it around 11:30am but it wouldn't be "detailed." So, we went to Walmart and picked up a few items we needed and then went to Chick Filet for an early lunch. After eating, Roger went to the bathroom. He was in there quite a while and when he came out he handed me a bunch of wadded up paper towels, turned around so I could see his butt and said "I had a little accident, wipe my pants off!!!" I was totally grossed out and couldn't believe what he was asking me to do in the middle of a restaurant! Then he says "it's ketchup" and I say "it doesn't look like ketchup!"

He sat on the toilet and when he pulled up his pants his hand got all wet and red - there was red all over the toilet, in the toilet bowl, on the floor and on his pants. He thought he was bleeding! But, then he smelled ketchup! He originally thought he had put a packet in his pocket and it had popped open but he finally figured out that "some little sh_ttin' Bart Simpson (his words not mine!) had put an open packet of ketchup under each side of the toilet seat - so that when he sat down it squirted all over him! Well.........I'm sure I would not have seen the humor in it if it had happened to me but, since it was Roger........I could not stop laughing!!!! He said "I'll just pull out my shirt tail and it will cover it" - not hardly! Back to Walmart for new shorts!



Never a dull happy hour with Roger around!
