Nawwab and I: The to-do list

on the phone son to my partner in crime, 'you did not leave any to-do list.' And Nawwab is my mind reading talking dog.

N: Sorry to interrupt you and Eddie...

t:  Yes, i will send A the to-do list.

N: You are not a dog. Leave reading mind to me.

t: I am your master Nawwab.

N:Woof woof!

t: OK. here is the list: take out the garbage Monday night...

N: ...water the indoor plants.

t: ..not to forget the cactus on the window sill...

N: and the cherished morning glory on the arbor...

t:..ah yes, and them ivies and Sharon of Roses

N:...and the front and side lawns...

t: he is a good kid, he know that.

N: But he is also busy at work

t: i know, i know..no harm in stating the obvious

N: ask me...

t: OK sage, tell me if he will write back to X?

N: How'd I know? He is your son

t: But O master you are blessed with the power to read minds.

N: Flattery is not my food.

t: (he's playing with me)

N: Answer Larry

t: BC.( Larry asked me where you find the best weed. Had read somewhere that BC weed had the highest THC content. So I shared this academic info with him at Chez Andre in Alexandria. Va. where the Cathy served us lunch Mrs. Andre also dropped in and greeted us.)

N: Now your reputation is established.

t: huh? Damn!

N: Tell him to open the mailbox and pay any bills.

t: Check. Will he write to X? Is she the right woman?

N: Do you really care?

t: Yes, and A and M more so.

N: Leave him alone. He will find someone.

t: Where is my pipe?

N: Did you tell him about the Qeema?

t: Qeema is in the fridge. Extra packets are in the freezer. The rice maker is in the pantry as is rice and dal.

N: And won't you tell him to ensure windows closed, doors locked and alarm turned on?

t: Do you think this X is the right person for A?

N: Woof,, woof. Read my mind.
