The Hot Dog Story

This happened a few weeks ago. I had meant to write about it sooner but I had forgotten and moved on. But I was scanning my posts and saw a Draft of the Hot Dog story I never posted so here it is:


Mike had called me one night and was telling me of the day he had.
Said he just finished with supper and for him at this time of night it was late. It was about 7:30 going for 8 pm. They always have supper about 5 pm.

So of course I asked him what he had for supper and he said "Hot Dogs."

Now all these thoughts were running through my head: Hot Dogs? Why did it take you so long ot make or eat Hot Dogs? Maybe he was out and didnt get home until late and thats why they just finished with dinner.

Mike continues to tell me that he was to make supper (The Hot Dogs) on the grill (Because that is all he really cooks with is the grill) But that he had some trouble cooking the hot dogs.

?#@!!! What???! How can you have trouble cooking Hot Dogs?

He couldn't get the grill lighted!!! Said he was trying and trying but the damn thing wouldn't stay lit.

*** Ok Now, this is hot dogs we are talking about! Why didn't you just boil them on the stove top?? ***** I mean they were only Hot Dogs!

Weary of the answer I would get --- I asked him how long he tried getting the grill started ----- Of course, it can't be a short and to the point answer -- OH NO, Not From Mike! LOL

It was like 20 minutes worth of babble until he got to the point of telling me that he tried for like an hours and a half before his mom came and got the hot dogs and boiled them on the stove!

Oy Vay! {Smack my forehead with my hand}
