So a few days ago, the sewer department came around and passed out notices that they would soon be “smoking the sewers” (whatever the hell that means) and there’s a chance that smoke could enter the house — so don’t be alarmed.
Now, Shane and I are always trying to “fool” each other, for lack of a better word…. so today the sewer smoking began. He left for work before it started and I ran to the store.
He calls me on the cellphone and says, “I just got home and I think the basement is on fire, there’s smoke everywhere!!!!”
Just then my cellphone dropped the call.
I thought for a second… silent maniacal laughter filled mind… then I dialed the phone….
He picks up the phone and I frantically say…. “I just called the fire department they should be there shortly!”
Then each of us had a good laugh as he said he was kidding about the smoke and I said I was about the fire department.
