It Really Was Only A Matter Of Time...



My hurricane candle holder thing is no longer :(
That's a picture of it taken at our old condo.

Tony was trying to grab the dog, who wasn't listening and instead decided that 'catch me' was more fun.

Man lunges to grab pug as he 'pug runs' past, pug dodges and side-swipes the candle thing. BIG LOUD crash followed by even louder cursing.

Girl is upstairs 'indisposed' (yeah, that's right, I'm not afraid to say so), is shocked by the commotion and yelling 'what happened?' ASAP she runs downstairs (don't worry, I took time to wash my hands) to see a big mess of broken glass in the living room/dining room. Pug is already shut in 'time out'/safe from Tony out-of-sight bathroom (oh yeah, safe from the glass too).

Girl cleans up broken glass mess and decides she may as well vacuum the rest of the house (it's 9pm) and ends up missing her swimming class partly because she thinks it's a good idea to remain at home. Otherwise, the pug would probably have been in time out all night.

I should have known, it's had several close calls already -Giggs knocked the nine foot bamboo tree onto it and it survived! Not so lucky this time. Now I have to find a glass replacement for the darn thing.

Perhaps you should take it out of Giggs' allowance . . .

Yep, just an accident waiting to happen! At least there wasn't a candle lit in there!!!! I'm sure Giggs is very sorry and exactly, um, I hate to say this but after a careful consideration of all the evidence, I do think that it was Tony's fault. The End. The jury is dismissed.

He's willing to accept 50% of the blame.
