What can Brown do for you?

I'll tell you what Brown did for me today! My awesome UPS delivery man let me use his cell phone to make some calls when my Zoey Monster locked me out of the house, AGAIN!

(previous incident)

Zoey has been a MENACE today! She has been talkin' up a storm, she scratched my face, she ran down the street when we went out to get the mail, snuck out the front door when UPS came, and then proceeded to lock me out when I put her inside. She's so dang talented. She must have been trying to flip the door knob and open the front door (which she has managed to do before...) but hit the dead bolt instead and locked it :( I was barefoot, phoneless, and obviously keyless... The UPS guy couldn't help but laugh. In his defense, he was laughing WITH me. He mentioned that it was a good thing that this happened with the UPS guy, and NOT FedEx. lol... I have to agree! We are pro-UPS in this family because my Uncle works for them :) He told me some funny stories about how this has happened before (not by a dog, but people get locked out all the time). Then he offered me his cell phone so I could make some phone calls. Ed is working a detail and won't be able to come home until late tonight, so he was out of the question. And my mom, who lives the closest, is in KY right now. NOT helpful. Uhhhhhhhh. So I called Ed (it took me 2 tries because I couldnt remember his number right, cell phones have me so spoiled) who then called his dad (whose number I definitely do not have memorized) to drive out and let me in. While I was waiting I pulled some weeds in my flower bed, and then got frustrated/bored and tried jiggling the door again. Of course, it opened... So I called his dad to tell him not to come, and he was already almost at the house. Whoops :-X I felt really bad! Until he told me he had brought along treats for the monster! And then I didn't feel so bad anymore!!!!! Bad girls don't get love and treats!!!!!!

Oh, what a day!

P.S. I'll be putting a hide-a-key somewhere some time soon. lol....
