Last Friday was Rocco and Tiffany's grooming day. My babies are professionally groomed once a month...I've been taking them to the same local groomer for several years, the owners and I are close friends.
The owner's son, who is Autistic, is participating in a special olympics program. He needs to raise enough money to participate, so I gave him $10 dollars. I told AF about it afterwards and his response was:
AF: "what? you only gave $10?"
Me: "yeah...is that not enough?"
AF: "that is very stingy of you! your mani/pedi costs more than $10!"
Me: "well...I didn't think about it like that...everybody else gave $10 so I gave $10...except for a rich Hillsborough lady who gave $50"
AF: "it's alright~ it's for a good cause...btw, can you call Joe (owner)?"
Me: "what for?"
AF: "can you call Joe and ask for a receipt so you can get tax deduction? bah! hahahahaha, you can get tax write-off for your $10 dollars"
har har har... I can't believe he made fun of me!
is $10 really not enough?
