Hello, devoted Reader, and thank you for visiting The Harriet and Mickey Chronicle– Harriet and my weekly contribution to our loyal fans.
You know that in the past I’ve complained about the youth– that is, the weasels. But it turns out that even the older youth, Hector, has very annoying traits. When I was Hector’s age (23), I spent my mornings in the gym lifting weights
I held the door for my elders on the way out, even though I was carrying both my gym bag and a fruit smoothie.
Hector, on the other hand, can’t be bothered to get up early enough to exercise and spends his breaks (all 5 of them) smoking.
As you all know from the Press Release, Hector is interning this month and is due to start work on the day after Labor Day, a holiday that Hector does not understand.
I am concerned about this, as I’m sure are you. Will Hector’s incompetence drag down this enterprise? Will Hector continue to smoke outdoors when the weather turns cold? Many questions have been swirling around my brain and causing me to lose sleep. And I am not at my best without nine hours of uninterrupted sleep. Are any of us?
Here I am, two days late with this Chronicle entry, forgetting my manners, barely keeping my eyes open as I type, and giving you– my most cherished readers– no tips, no advice, no good cheer.
Please keep me in your thoughts.
Your dog in duress,
Mickey
