1. There is a squirrel in my attic. And my kids want to keep it.
This is a lie. While I have no doubt that my kids would want to keep pretty much any critter that wanted to occupy our household, I don’t even know if I have an attic.
2. Pot holes on my side-street were fixed within days of asking the city to fix them.
True. And it’s a good thing they got fixed because I could have lost a kid in those things.
3. I recently got an email from the chief of police.
True. Our city’s finest responded via email regarding certain local parking issue I have. They haven’t yet done what they said they would do, but baby steps people. Baby steps.
4. I was the last person to leave a bar last weekend, and the evening ended with my mother getting a black eye.
True. I waited for my father to lock up his business (a bar). Later my mother fell and got a black eye.
5. I went out for a special coffee today and one of my companions wore no shoes to the café. She was not served.
True. And the adorable stockinged feet belonged to beautiful Bon’s baby.
6. I practiced writing my name with my toes today. Just because.
True. What can I say… seemed like a good idea at the time.
I shouldn’t have read this first. Too late for me to guess which is the lie now.
