By the time I tied my apron and donned my hair net it was at least ten after six. Amy, the team leader, put me to work making peanut butter and jelly.

When I was growing up, my Momma used to make me pull weeds. That sort of work will wear you out but good.

That's why I don't feel so bad about living in my Momma's basement with my wife Naomi. My two teenage kids used to live with us in Momma's house too. Then one day they mysteriously vanished. I think they said something about going to basketball camp with a Chuck Cunningham or something.
