did you really?
miss your daughters
birthday I mean?
overtime at the office
because promotion hinges on
this present project.
first animal doctor
for you to audit.
not only
for IRS, but also
for vets association.
they have him up on the
carpet for sub standard
supplies, procedures and drugs.
other relatives are
filthy rich.
and he wanted you.
yes you specifically.
your little girl must
enjoy another day
for time with you.
tell Giselle to go down
the street.
buy something really
pretty. send it by taxi
to the house.
you have no time
but for your
desk and files
and statements.
got it?
