In reply to: kenamom, continuing the story line.... 's message, "The Mayor whistles as she skips merrily down Frohike Way" on 18:38:01 01/28/06 Sat

"You're the cause of this, you know," KS informs the Mayor in a grim voice.

"Eep! Sheesh, KS, you scared the daylights out of me," the Mayor informs her curtly, then grunts as she tries to lift Bubba out of the car. "Here, you take him. I just had this suit cleaned."

KS lifts Bubba as if he weighed no more than a balloon. Resting him on the top of her toolbet, she puts her hands on her hips and glares down at the Mayor, who has stopped and is re-applying lipstick while talking to her manicurist on her cellphone. "You didn't intervene with Kande."

"That's right, Roberto, I want those highlights in my hair again, same as last time." The Mayor snaps the miniscule, blue cellphone closed and glances at KS. "You were saying?"

KS starts waving her hands around wildly. "I don't get paid enough! I don't get paid at all, you took my paycheck! And neither does Bubba. Look how thin he is. Kande isn't paying him enough to buy food. And you know how horrible her cooking is."

Bubba, who was proud of his weight loss on the Atkins diet, decides he'll take a little snooze next to KS's machete. Oh sure, he probably looks a little thin now, after recently emptying the large bladder in his left nostril, but that will resolve itself after a little cat protein snack. Reassured that he's no longer in danger of dying, Bubba decides to leave well enough alone. Honestly, humans don't fuss over him enough. And they should, really they should, if they knew what was good for them.

KS is now striding back and forth in front of the Mayor, who has forgotten about Bubba and is studying her fingernails in a fit of boredom. Maybe she should go with the mango color this time? She's tuned out, but tunes back in just as KS is ranting about some school librarian in Oregon. "...Union finally settled their contract, and you know how much her raise was? Three and a half cents an hour! That's pathetic!"

"Well, KS, if you feel so bad for her, maybe you should go help her out. Bump off some of the administration. Torture people until they give her a bigger raise," the Mayor shrugs.

KS's shoulders slump. "Naw, she can't afford me." Suddenly she brightens. "But say, you just gave me some great resolutions to my own payraise problems!"

The Mayor's eyes widen, her breath suddenly coming in short pants. "Now, KS, let's not be too hasty about this..."
