Saturday Centus (the on-time edition!)

After not getting last week's Centus done until last night, I'm actually on time this week for the Centus, huzzah! Jenny Matlock is none too enthusiastic about her prompt this week, but let's see what we can do here....

Marla pulled into Tom's driveway. Sure enough, the lights were all on, and she could hear the guys cheering and shouting already. They'd just got back from their five-day hunting trip, and now they were watching the Cowboys game they'd DVR'd. "Friday Night Football", they called it. It usually came before "Saturday Night Nookie With Another Woman", which was why Marla had cleared out her stuff the day before, and which was why she clicked 'send' on the text message to Tom and each of his buddies: "Giants 38, Cowboys 9". She drove away when she heard the shouts of consternation.

Heh, that'll teach him!

(BTW, Centusians, if anyone was wondering where I was for last week's Centus, this post explains. Some of you may find it mildly amusing!)

This was completely funny! You should see my husband hold his hands over his ears and babble out loud to himself so he won't hear the score before he can watch whatever he's DVRd.

Very humorous Centus.

My husband records PGA tournaments, and warns his buddies not to tell him what happened. So far, everyone has been very GOOD!

Clever, clever, clever!

And I'm keeping this in my nasty-lady repertoire for such a time as I really need to tick off a bunch of guys! ha!

And, hey, Happy Belated! Did you at least EAT one slice of your pie?
